Snow will start falling in Boston and Hartford, Connecticut, around midmorning and become heavy in the afternoon, meteorologist Dave Hennen said. Boston should get about a foot of snow, with Springfield and Fitchburg, also in Massachusetts, seeing a few inches less. In New York and Philadelphia, the snow will hit around daybreak, with 30-mph winds creating whiteout conditions at times, Hennen said. Six inches to a foot will collect in New York, with 5 to 10 inches in the City of Brotherly Love. More than 40 million people will be under a winter storm watch, and 12 million will be under winter weather advisories.
