Snow should begin to fall in Western Massachusetts in late afternoon. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for the area from 4 p.m. Friday to 1 p.m. Saturday.
Worcester County will start getting snow about 10 p.m. Midnight will see it start coming down in Boston and coastal areas. Calm winds should make for a gentle snowfall through the night.
