Meteorologists are predicting “plowable snowfall” across Massachusetts from Sunday night into Monday morning, as a nor’easter is expected to dump 3 to 6 inches of snow.

We've got some accumulating snow to kick things off. That will be followed by the coldest airmass of the winter season thus far. Finally, in the longer range, it appears that an active/stormy pattern is going to unfold over the next few weeks across the eastern United States.

Forecasters say they expect accumulating, plowable snow to begin falling in Massachusetts on Sunday afternoon.

Friday will be a partly to a mostly sunny day with a light breeze from the southwest with temperatures in the mid to upper 30s. Friday evening will be dry, with temperatures in the mid to upper 20s. Overnight temperatures will be in the teens and low 20s.

Here's what to know about the latest forecast. Parts of Massachusetts could see light snow tonight, according to the National Weather Service. Andy Nash, a NWS meteorologist, said snowfall is expected between around 6 p.m. tonight through 2 a.m. tomorrow morning.

The Boston 25 Weather team continues to keep an eye on a winter storm system that could bring snow to Massachusetts on Saturday.

Mensch said if the storm hits Massachusetts, it could bring some snow showers throughout the day on Saturday. If the winter storm hits Massachusetts this weekend, it could bring up to three inches of snow, according to Caitlyn Mensch, a NWS meteorologist.

Where's the big snow this winter? We're monitoring another storm chance for the Boston area in the weekend forecast.

A one-two punch of rain and snow is expected to make for a messy weekend in Massachusetts, then some of the coldest air of the season will grip the region. Friday will be chilly and sunny, but Saturday will kick off a major shift in the weather heading into next weekend.
