It's the last thing snow-weary New Englanders wanted to hear: more snow is on the way.

Winter Storm Marcus is expected to be a slow, plodding storm that will hang around New England for days, hitting many of the same areas that were left with feet of snow from a couple of storms that shut down the area over the last few weeks. Winter started slowly in the Northeast, but a relentless pattern has taken its toll on school and business closures, as well as road crews and transportation officials.

Not only will the area have to endure snowflakes flying, but it's also the amount of additional snowfall that's expected to accumulate from Marcus that's irking New Englanders.

"Winter Storm Marcus is piling on to what has already been a very snowy 2 weeks in New England," said weather.com meteorologist . "Widespread snow totals of more than a foot are expected, with some areas in Massachusetts picking up around 20 inches. The snow isn't going to melt anytime soon either, since the coldest air of the season is expected late in the week ahead."

Here are the latest impacts, state-by-state.

Connecticut

Gov. Dannel Malloy announced Connecticut Department of Transportation road crews would keep the state in 'business' by treating the roads throughout the storm in a Sunday press release.

Malloy also said if nonessential state employees are not be able to or will be delayed getting to work, they are allowed to use personal and vacation time. However, if workers are able, they are to report to work on time.

Maine

Many Maine due to the inclement weather, according to WCSH-TV.

Maine officials have been dealing with an increase in home firesto keep warm from subzero temperatures, CentralMaine.com reported.

"There has been a rash of them lately. I’ve been here 22 years and [a firefighter in] central Maine for 28 years, and I don’t ever remember this many fires coming in a 10-day period," said Augusta fire chief Roger Audette in the CentralMaine.com report.

Massachusetts

In a 16-day span from Jan. 24 through Sunday morning, Boston had reported at least a trace of snow on 12 of those days. According to Weather Underground observations for Beantown, snow has been reported in 123 of 369 hours between Jan. 24 and 9 a.m. EST– about 33 percent of the time, Dolce found.

More than 3 inches of snow had already fallen Sunday morning in Boston, and the storm was just beginning to reach the area with a few initial bands.

Two high-profile court cases will be placed on hold after , the Associated Press reported. The jury selection in the Boston Marathon Bombing case and the ongoing murder trial of former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez are among those cases delayed by the weather.

Due to Marcus, Delta Airlines issued a travel waiver , giving travelers the chance to change their flight itinerary without paying a fee.

Beverly Scott, general manager of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, said crews were working to prevent major travel delays for the transit system by clearing tracks of snow and ice, the AP said. However, the MBTA said delays are to be expected.

Gov. Charlie Baker announced an abbreviated schedule would be implemented for Boston's subway lines Monday and that Logan International Airport would only allow a limited number of flights to depart and arrive. Baker urged residents to avoid travel and work from home, the AP reported.

Boston Mayor Marty Walsh announced Sunday afternoon that schools will be closed Monday and Tuesday.

Boston schools had this year by Feb. 2, tying the 1995-96 record of snow days, per the Boston Globe. This record has likely been broken after Walsh announced additional closures this upcoming week.

On the ground, officials were planning to staff up in preparation for Marcus. Because the storm is expected to be dumping heavy snow in many major cities during the Monday morning commute, pretreatment of roads and snow plows will need to be deployed en masse to keep roads relatively safe.

Walsh noted during a press conference, "We've gone through our $18 million budget for snow removal," later saying, "We've never seen snow like this in the history of our city."

Businesses are taking a hit from the continuous string of snowstorms, including that of Bruce Billings, owner of Canine College and Bow Wow Resort in Holbrook, Massachusetts, the AP said. Billings noted, "I normally have 15 to 20 dogs for daycare, but that's down to half a dozen; people can't get here."

New Hampshire

, with New Hampshire State Police responding to over 120, WMUR-TV reported. No one was injured, however, State Troopers predict the accidents will continue into Monday morning.

Speeds on highways south of Littleton were reduced to 45 mph Sunday by the Department of Transportation, WMUR said. Several communities across the state , effective at various times Saturday through Tuesday.

Sunday morning, a on snowy, slushy roads, causing the bus to cross the high speed lane, run over a guardrail and fall 70 feet down an embankment on northbound Interstate 93 in Manchester, WMUR reported. The bus was not carrying any children, and portions of the highway were closed to allow crews to remove the bus. Police say inclement weather also caused a car to plow into a utility poll,between West Ossipee and Albany.

Rhode Island

The and the cancelation of after-school activities, WPRI-TV reported. Providence is closing city recreation centers and delaying garbage pickup for a day.

Providence will partially activate its Emergency Management Agency's Emergency Operations Center at 6 a.m. Monday morning, WPRI said.

Another reality some towns are realizing is that they're running out of places to store the snow that's been removed from roadways. West Warwick, Rhode Island, is one of those towns, as public works director David Lombari told the Providence Journal and snow piles all over the town are already several feet tall.

"I don’t know what we’re going to do, yet," Lombari said in the report. "It’s tough trying to find a place that meets all the proper [environmental] criteria."

Road salt, unsurprisingly, is in high demand in New England. Some towns, like NorthKingstown, Rhode Island, are placing orders for salt that can't be fulfilled, the Providence Journal report added. Two weeks ago, the town requested a 500-ton order and only received 67 tons.

Vermont
