Significant Winter Storm likely Tonight-Monday...
As said yesterday, we feel this is going to be a widespread advisory event along/east of I-79/west of I-95/south of I-90. For most part...2-6" will be the general rule. 2-4" most likely across Pennsylvania..with 3-6" across areas of the Northern Tier of PA and south of I-90. Highest amounts closest to 6" will be in the Pocono mtns. northeast into the western Catskills. Only exceptions will be across the lake effect snow belts off Lake Erie/Ontario...where lake enhancement/effect will help to boost totals. May be expanding higher totals here...as Lake effect potential will be increasing overnight Sunday. Other is the Catskills mtns. where we think 5-10" is a possible...especially across the eastern half of the mountains into western Ulster/Greene/Schoharie cntys.
Across New England...this has the makings to be a classic Nor' Easter. Heavy snow/high winds will reign down on interior New England Sunday Night into Monday as coastal Low begins to bomb out along/or just of the Maine coast. Along the Massachusetts coast...specifically the southern Cape, Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard... could start as snow before changing over to rain. Biggest threat there will likely be the winds. For now, we are playing conservative along the shore counties of Maine...where we think a general 6-10 is most likely at this time, though we will be open to possible expansion of higher totals with next update later this Evening. Further north/west from the mountains of eastern VT/western-northern NH/northwest Maine... a solid 10+ looks likely with possible blizzard conditions...especially across interior Maine.
