The WBZ NEXT Weather team has been tracking three storms that potentially could have hit and impacted Massachusetts and the Boston area this week. That is now basically down to two. Storm #1 is going to essentially be a miss to our south.

Boston is bracing for a classic New England winter stretch, with a series of storms set to bring snow, wind and potentially messy conditions over the next several weeks.

Snow totals varied across the state, with accumulations approaching as high as 2.5 inches along and north of Route 2, forecasters said.
