Snow returns to Massachusetts Tuesday. Here's who might get the most.
2+ hour, 47+ min ago (440+ words) November 28, 2025 / 9:01 AM EST / CBS Boston It's time for snow in Massachusetts. The first significant widespread snowfall of the season may be coming Tuesday. A storm passing south and east of New England will send moisture into air that is just cold enough, which sets up a classic early season battleground between wet flakes and plain rain. This is not a blockbuster storm, but the setup favors higher terrain and communities inland." Central and western Massachusetts, especially the Worcester Hills, Berkshires, and the Monadnock region, have the best chance for plowable snow. This is the kind of snow that would require some cleanup by late in the day, especially during Tuesday's evening commute. Closer to the coast, temperatures hover slightly too warm." Boston, the South Shore, and much of the Cape will likely see a rain and snow mix, leaning more…...

16 Massachusetts Clam Shacks That Locals Swear Are Worth The Detour
10+ hour, 33+ min ago (1783+ words) In Massachusetts, people have a special relationship with fried clams, and the state's best shacks prove it every single summer. I've spent years chasing down crispy clam bellies along winding coastal roads, and each spot tells its own story through hot oil, salt air, and picnic tables that have seen generations of families return season after season. These aren't fancy restaurants with white tablecloths and complicated menus. They're simple counter-service spots where you order through a window, wait for your number to be called, and carry a paper tray to a weathered table overlooking marshes, harbors, or sandy beaches.
