THE SURFACE LOW ALONG THE COAST IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE
INTENSIFYING AS IT MOVES NORTH-NORTHEAST ALONG THE COAST THROUGH
TONIGHT BEFORE MOVING INTO EASTERN MAINE WEDNESDAY MORNING. SNOW,
HEAVY AT TIMES, WILL CONTINUE INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY FROM PORTIONS
OF THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN APPALACHIANS TO NEW ENGLAND. SNOW WILL
GRADUALLY BEGIN TO TAPER OFF WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM PULLS AWAY FROM NEW ENGLAND INTO
SOUTHEASTERN CANADA. ADDITIONAL SNOWFALL AMOUNTS OF 5 TO 12 INCHES
ARE FORECAST ACROSS INTERIOR PORTIONS OF THE NORTHEAST, WITH 1 TO
3 INCHES OF ADDITIONAL SNOW POSSIBLE ACROSS THE CENTRAL
APPALACHIANS AND NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION.
WIND GUSTS TO 45 MPH MAY COMBINE WITH HEAVY SNOW TO CREATE
BLIZZARD CONDITIONS FOR SOME AREAS OF THE NORTHERN MID-ATLANTIC
AND NORTHEAST WITH WHITEOUT CONDITIONS POSSIBLE. IN THESE AREAS,
TRAVEL WILL BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS OR EVEN IMPOSSIBLE. SNOW MAY
MIX WITH OR CHANGE TO SLEET OR FREEZING RAIN AT TIMES FOR AREAS
CLOSE TO THE COAST IN NEW ENGLAND. ADDITIONAL FREEZING RAIN
ACCUMULATIONS WILL GENERALLY BE LIGHT, LESS THAN A TENTH OF AN
INCH. PORTIONS OF THE NEW ENGLAND COASTLINE WILL ALSO SEE THE
POTENTIAL FOR COASTAL FLOODING. TIDAL ANOMALIES OF 1 TO 2 FEET ARE
POSSIBLE WHICH COULD LEAD TO MINOR FLOODING OF VULNERABLE
WATERFRONT AREAS AS WELL AS BEACH EROSION.
THE NEXT STORM SUMMARY WILL BE ISSUED BY THE WEATHER PREDICTION
CENTER AT 1100 PM EDT. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS EVENT.
