Are we next?

The blizzard that missed us is causing massive travel delays in the mid-Atlantic with over 2 feet of snow in most areas! We may be next in line for a major snowstorm, as a powerful storm comes up the coast on Wednesday. This one looks to track closer than the last one, but it is still uncertain how close it will come. If it tracks perfectly we could get a lot of snow, but if it comes too close then we may have some mixing with rain. However, I don't expect 2-3 feet like the mid-Atlantic got over the last couple days. It will be cold and dry until then.


Snow totals: As of 4 PM:

Frostburg, MD: 36 inches! (near West Virginia border)
BWI airport: 26.8
Philly: 26.7
Dulles airport: 20
Capitol: 20


Boston, MA forecast:

Tonight: Light snow possible on the Cape, otherwise gradual clearing. Very cold with lows near 16 in Boston, 13 in JP and 10 in the suburbs.

Sunday: Sunny, but breezy. High 30. NW wind of 10-20 MPH.

Sunday night: Clear and cold, with lows in the teens again.

Monday: Mostly sunny, highs in the lows 30's.

Tuesday: Sunny in the morning, then increasing clouds late. Highs in the mid 30's.

Wednesday: A powerful nor'easter is possible which may bring heavy precip and strong winds. Highs around freezing. Stay tuned for details.
