Potentially plowable snow is in the weekend forecast for Massachusetts. Read the latest from the WBZ NEXT Weather team.

BOSTON - Be prepared for a new round of snow across Massachusetts late this weekend.

Saturday looks like another dreary day with mostly cloudy skies and a risk of scattered light rain/snow /ice showers here and there. And then there's Sunday.

Unfortunately, it is too early to make a solid call on this one and confidence is lower than usual two days out from the event.

There is certainly potential for plowable snow for a large portion of southern New England.

The storm does not have that "classic look" though, at least not right now. It may have a couple of different low-pressure centers when it makes it closest pass by our area, not completely getting its "act together" until it is too far out to sea.

Here's an early look at the potential precipitation type for the storm. It should end as snow everywhere, but the changeover will take longer the farther south and east you live.

So, where the snow is more likely, the amounts are also forecast to be higher. The chance for plowable snow also increases as you head farther north and west.

Whatever happens, the highest impact is likely to come Sunday night into Monday.

We will have much more on this in the next 24 hours!
