The coastal low will slowly drift north along the Northeast coast,
becoming nearly stationary Friday into Saturday just off the coast
of Maine. Wintry precipitation is forecast to continue in the
Northeast and downwind of the Great Lakes through Saturday with
the heaviest snow totals forecast for today. Moderate to heavy
snowfall will gradually decrease in intensity overnight tonight,
but light snow will continue through Friday over northern New
England. Total snowfall accumulations of 1-2 feet are likely for
much of northern New England and the northeast part of the
Adirondacks. The combination of wet snow, a high snow load, and
the strong wind gusts could cause some tree damage and power
outages. Additionally, Prolonged onshore winds will result in
moderate coastal flooding for parts of the southern New England
coast. Impacts include widespread roadway flooding, coastal and
bayside flooding, impassable roads, and some damage to vulnerable
structures.

The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 1000 PM CDT. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
