Interstate 395 northbound has reopened in Thompson after a series of minor crashes prompted police to shut down the highway so Department of Transportation trucks could treat the roads.
The highway was closed near exit 99 between 5:30 p.m. and about 8 p.m. State police said snow and ice caused several crashes near the Massachusetts border.
Snow is expected to continue through the evening, and officials are urging drivers to be careful.
Most of the state will see 2 to 4 inches of accumulation.
