BOSTON (AP) – Just as southern New England residents have finished digging out from the latest storm, forecasters say more snow is on the way.

National Weather Service Meteorologist Stephanie Dunten said Tuesday the region, which already has seen record snowfalls, is on track to see a fairly weak system bring 2 to 4 inches of new snow to many Massachusetts and Rhode Island communities. It’s expected to happen Thursday into Friday morning.

The snowfall will vary: Cape Cod could see up to six inches while western Massachusetts and portions of Connecticut could get 1 to 3 inches.

Forecasters also are watching a much larger storm that could dump higher amounts Sunday into Monday. Dunten said it’s too early to say how much that might ultimately bring.

She also warned of bitterly cold temperatures Friday through the President’s Day weekend. “The snow is not going to be melting anytime soon,” Dunten said. “We recommend homeowners scrape any snow off their roofs to avoid overloading, as we’ve already seen a few roofs collapsing.”
