The very strong low pressure system, which is responsible for
breaking several long-standing low pressure records over the Ohio
Valley on Friday, is forecast to continue pushing northeastward
until a secondary low forms off the southern New England coastline
early Saturday. As it does so, heavy snow should come to an end
across much of the Great Lakes region Saturday morning. Meanwhile,
heavy snow is expected to further overspread and impact New
England to start the weekend. Total snowfall amounts over a foot
are possible throughout interior sections of the Northeast and New
England. The strong system will also be accompanied by strong
winds, which could be damaging and lead to coastal flood concerns
throughout the Northeast over the next day or so.
The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 1000 AM EST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
