...Significant winter storm likely to impact interior New England through
Friday...
...Showers and thunderstorms possible from the Deep South to the
Mid-Atlantic today...
...Another round of rain and mountain snow is possible for the Pacific
Northwest and the Intermountain West...
Much of New England will be impacted by a rapidly developing winter storm
today and will continue into the weekend. Lake effect snow warnings are in
affect for areas downwind of the Great Lakes, with numerous winter storm
warnings and winter weather advisories spanning from northeast
Pennsylvania/eastern New York to Maine. Heavy snow will begin by this
afternoon and continue into Friday - storm total accumulations of a foot
or more will be possible for locations along the Adirondacks to western
Maine. Gusty winds will also accompany this storm; which will create poor
travel conditions. Cold air will usher into the region on the backside of
the low and will generate enhanced heavy snowfall for the favored downwind
areas of lakes Erie and Ontario. Additionally, accumulating snow is also
expected along favorable upslope regions of the central Appalachians.
Rain and thunderstorms will spread east across the Deep South, Southeast
and the Mid-Atlantic today as the southern flank of the front moves
through. Localized areas of heavy rainfall will be possible, especially
along the boundary itself and within thunderstorms. Temperatures are
expected to return to near normal or slightly cooler than average as
surface high pressure builds in.
A Pacific cold front will move inland today and track eastward though the
Intermountain West and into the Northern Plains/Upper Midwest Friday and
Saturday. Rain and mountain snow will accompany this system. The higher
elevations of the Cascades, northern Idaho and western Montana may have
periods of heavier snow fall. Gusty winds will accompany this system as it
cross the Rockies - high wind warnings are in effect for portions of
northern Montana and the Big Horn Range in Wyoming. Prior to the frontal
passage, much of the Central and Northern Plains will have warmer than
seasonal average temperatures. Afternoon highs of 10 to 20 degrees above
normal on are forecast for Friday. In the Southwest, precipitation chances
increase into Friday as an upper level low approaches the southern
California coast.
