on Tuesday night, bringing light snow into early Wednesday morning.

Spear said it won’t be a major snowstorm, but Bay Staters can expect anywhere from a light dusting to about 3 inches of snow.

Most of Massachusetts could see up to 3 inches of snow, while parts of the South Shore, South Coast, Cape Cod, and the Islands will see a coating to 1 inch of snow.

The snow is expected to stick to the ground from midnight to 5 a.m.

“The timing means this could cause some slowdowns for your Wednesday morning commute, so plan accordingly,” Spear said.

When the snow moves out, temperatures will climb into the 40s.
