Discussion
It remains brutally cold around here for the next couple of days with afternoon high temperatures generally confined to the teens and overnight lows likely in the lower-to-middle single digits in many locations. As far as the weekend storm is concerned, low pressure will develop near the Carolina coastline by later Saturday and then intensify dramatically as it moves to the northeast later in the weekend. The biggest impact from this weekend storm will be across southern Virginia, North Carolina, and likely across eastern New England as well. Around here, the winds will become a noticeable factor this weekend and there is the chance for some snow from later Saturday night into Sunday…accumulations cannot be ruled out.
