Boston should expect mostly rain from this week's storm.

The Boston area is in for some wet weather Wednesday through Friday, according to local forecasts, but don't get out your snow shovels yet.

Although earlier predictions were calling for anywhere from four to eight inches of snow in the area, now local weather teams aren't predicting very much snow around Boston.

Instead, expect a lot of rain and maybe some heavy slushy snow in spots. While areas inland may get a half a foot of snow, Boston's bigger concern is the three high tides during this storm.

Here are the latest forecasts from the local television news weather teams. All totals were updated Wednesday morning.

WHDH (7 News): All rain

WLVI (NewsCenter 5): 1-2 inches along the coast, six inches or more inland

WBZ (CBS Local): 2-4 inches

WFXT (MyFox Boston): 1-3 inches

NECN: 1-3 inches

Online, the National Weather Service is predicting 2-4 inches on Thursday.
