From noaa.com which usually does ok forecasting snow fall totals.

Late Afternoon: Rain likely. Cloudy, with a high near 42. East wind around 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.

Tonight: Periods of snow, mainly before 3am. Low around 28. East wind 10 to 16 mph becoming north. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches possible.

Friday: A chance of snow before 9am. Cloudy, then gradually becoming partly sunny, with a high near 30. Blustery, with a north wind between 16 and 21 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.

It will be a close thing. The overnight low of 28 is too close to 32 for my comfort.
