Weather.com-3/20/13, Associated Press

BOSTON -- New Englanders were preparing for another messy day of snow as they welcomed spring's unseasonable arrival.

Forecasts called for as much as 16 inches of snow in parts of northern New England through Wednesday morning, bringing slippery road conditions. Snow was expected to taper off in other locations.

"Ukko has delivered a foot or more of snow to parts of five states in the Northeast including New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine," said weather.com meteorologist Chris Dolce. "Boston's storm total of 7.2 inches pushed their seasonal total over the 60-inch mark (63.1 inches)."
