This is the kind of snowstorm we can deal with

Mark Smith watched the snow come down on Paul's Bridge and the Neponset River at the Hyde Park/Milton line this afternoon.

Ben Franklin outside Old City Hall was looking good in the snow as well:

Now brace yourself. The National Weather Service has issued a hazardous-weather outlook:

A major storm will likely develop and intensify off the mid Atlantic coast early Tuesday and may bring heavy snow, strong winds, and coastal flooding to much of southern New England Tuesday into Tuesday night. Although this has the potential to be a very potent storm, the severity of impact on southern New England will depend upon the eventual track, which remains uncertain at this time.

And that's why the French Toast Alert is currently at Yellow/Elevated.
