The original low pressure system is forecast to track eastward
across the Upper Midwest to Upper Great Lakes region today, before
a new surface low becomes the dominant low in the Mid-Atlantic
later this afternoon. Heavy snow will continue across the Upper
Great Lakes today, with additional snowfall amounts of 6 to 12
inches possible there. Wintry precipitation should start as
freezing rain in parts of the Upper Great Lakes to the northern
Mid-Atlantic and into southern portions of the Northeast. Over a
tenth of an inch of accumulated ice is possible in some spots,
with locally higher amounts around a quarter of an inch especially
in the central Appalachians. As snow spreads into the Northeast on
Sunday, a long duration snow event will unfold there as the newer
surface low pivots and moves as a nor'easter. Through Tuesday,
over 8 inches of snow is forecast for northeastern Pennsylvania
into much of the Northeast, with higher amounts near 18 inches
expected in higher elevations of New York and New England.
Additionally, rain and thunderstorms are expected farther south
along the cold front. Gusty winds should continue through Sunday
for the Central U.S. on the backside of the systems.
The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 900 AM CST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
