As of 9:50 p.m. EST Monday, this blog is no longer live. Archived reports from the storm can be found below.
Another winter storm continues to invade the Northeast on Monday bringing an onslaught of rain, ice and snow to areas from New York City to Boston.
Snow has already fallen and created a travel mess in areas across New York and Massachusetts. The highest snow totals are expected in the Boston area where some locations may end up with more than a foot by the end of the storm. Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker urged residents to stay home on Monday and keep roads clear as crews work on snow removal.
Further south, ice has begun to coat roadways and sidewalks, slowing travel and forcing speed restrictions on major highways. More than a thousand flights across the Northeast were canceled on Monday morning with more expected as the storm continues.
