AS THE SURFACE LOW IN THE OHIO VALLEY CONTINUES TO MOVE EASTWARD
THIS EVENING...A NEW LOW PRESSURE CENTER IS EXPECTED TO FORM AND
INTENSIFY QUICKLY IN THE CAROLINAS AS IT MOVES ACROSS THE
MID-ATLANTIC COAST AND BECOMES THE DOMINANT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
JUST OFF LONG ISLAND NEW YORK EARLY ON SUNDAY MORNING. SNOW IS
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO SPREAD EASTWARD INTO NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT
BUT WILL BEGIN TO TAPER OFF IN THE LOWER GREAT LAKES AND THE OHIO
VALLEY.  IN NEW ENGLAND...SNOW IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE IN
INTENSITY AS THE LOW CONTINUES TO INTENSIFY AND MOVE NORTHEASTWARD
ACROSS THE GULF OF MAINE.  ADDITIONAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ARE
FORECAST TO RANGE FROM AN INCH OR TWO IN THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS
TO MORE THAN A FOOT IN NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND...AND CLOSE TO 18
INCHES IN EASTERN MAINE THROUGH EARLY ON MONDAY. IN ADDITION...UP
TO A QUARTER OF AN INCH OF ICE ACCUMULATION IS POSSIBLE FROM THE
CENTRAL APPALACHIANS EASTWARD TO THE SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND COAST AS
THE INTENSIFYING LOW PULLS WARMER AIR ALOFT FROM THE ATLANTIC.

THE NEXT STORM SUMMARY WILL BE ISSUED BY THE WEATHER PREDICTION
CENTER AT 1000 PM EST. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS EVENT.
