Discussion

The potential continues for accumulating snow this weekend in the I-95 corridor as low pressure forms off the Mid-Atlantic coastline, but amounts are still uncertain as questions still remain on the exact storm track and speed of intensification. One possible solution is that a storm intensifies quite rapidly later this weekend and "hugs" the Mid-Atlantic coastline - this scenario would produce more in the way of snow accumulation for the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor. Another possible outcome is that the storm is farther east in a location well off the coast and it intensifies more slowly - this would lead to less snow for the Mid-Atlantic I-95 corridor region. Preliminary snowfall estimates are 1-3 inches in the DC metro region, 2-5 inches in the Philly metro region, and 3-6 inches in and around NYC - all still subject to change. The snow would be of the wet variety and would accumulate primarily on non-paved surfaces roughly in the time period of Saturday night into Sunday night. Stay tuned.
