The next winter storm will hit the Boston area late Tuesday night into Wednesday with a new round of travel delays and disruptions to daily activities.
While the storm Monday started warm and became colder, the storm at midweek will start cold and become warmer. It will also track much farther north and is forecast to put down heavy snow over central and northern New England as a result.
As warmer air invades the storm over southern areas, a change to a wintry mix or plain ice is possible.

Midweek Storm to Sock More Than Two Dozen States
The region should get a little more of a breather before the next storm rolls in. The timing of the third storm in less than a week is scheduled for Sunday night and Monday locally.
Odds favor a similar scenario to Wednesday's storm. However, there is a chance the storm will pull cold air down at the last minute, resulting in all snow over southern New England as well.
The storm scheduled for late next weekend may bring enough wind to cause coastal flooding at times of high tide Sunday night into Monday. Where the wind hits with trees and power lines weighed down with wet snow and ice, power outages are possible.
Be alert for areas of black ice in the wake of each storm, as temperatures will drop below freezing at night. Untreated wet and slushy areas will freeze.
