Winter weather slammed the South Thursday and Friday, leaving a trail of snow from Texas into Alabama and Georgia. Weather forecasters say that system is headed straight for New England over the weekend.
According to WGME-TV, snow will develop late in the afternoon on Saturday. It’s expected to end during the morning on Sunday. The heaviest will be overnight. Most areas can expect 3 to 6 inches. Eastern parts of Maine may get around 4 to 8 inches.
Winds will not be a problem during the storm, however, when the storm ends on Sunday the winds will become quite gusty, with gusts 20 to 30 miles per hour.
No Winter Weather Advisories or Warnings have been issued yet.
Another snow storm may hit Maine on Tuesday into Wednesday, WGME forecasters said, and that storm will bring more accumulations and strong, gusty winds.
