Winter, Yes, Winter Coming to Central Mass.

(NECN: Jennifer Eagan: Worcester, Mass.) - Commuters in much of central and southern New England can expect rain, snow, or a miserable combination on Friday morning.

And for the ride home this afternoon, there's be lots of rain in southern New England and snow in ski country on Friday afternoon and Friday night.

While the wintry weather shouldn't be unusual for this time of year, in the relatively snowless winter, the prospect of even meager accumulation is drawing attention.
