Trevor Warren, 10, a fifth-grade student at Kent Heights School in East Providence, enjoys the feel of the snow on his face this morning as he stands at his post as a member of the school safety patrol watching out for other children as they walk to school.

PROVIDENCE -- The rain has turned to wet snow across Rhode Island and eastern Massachusetts, and the National Weather Service is calling for periods of snow to continue, mainly before 9 a.m.

It shouldn't amount to more than one inch, the weather service says. Some snow is accumulating on grass, but the roads should stay wet, according to the weather service.

No school cancellations were reported.

The temperature is 32 degrees in Providence and visibility is less than a half mile.

Drier air from the northwest should stop the snow from northwest to southeast between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m.

"This is not expected to be a big deal," the weather service says, adding that the sun will be out this afternoon, although it will stay cold.
