...Snow continues to fall across the interior Northeast and New
England as coastal low deepens offshore...

Winter Storm Warnings are in effect for coastal New Hampshire and
Maine.

Winter Weather Advisories are in effect for portions of Upstate
New York, central Appalachians, and much of New England.

For a detailed graphical depiction of the latest watches, warnings
and advisories, please see www.weather.gov

At 800 AM CST...A deepening occluded coastal low was analyzed 100
miles east of Cape Cod, Massachusetts with a central pressure of
993mb (29.32 inHg) moving northeastward. Latest RADAR imagery and
surface observations depicted light to moderate snow continuing to
fall across Upstate New York, interior New England, and Maine,
although the heaviest axis of precipitation had moved eastward
into the Canadian Maritimes. Furthermore, on the backside of the
potent low, strong northwesterly winds have produced lake-effect
snow with light to moderate snowfall rates downstream Lakes
Michigan, Erie, and Ontario.

Conditions should begin to improve throughout the day across the
interior Northeast and New England with snow becoming lighter as
the coastal low progresses northeastward into the Canadian
Maritimes. Further light accumulations are possible, especially
along coastal Maine, where an additional 3-5" of snow is forecast
to fall through the early evening hours. Lesser amounts will be
possible further inland, as snow tapers off from west to east,
while lingering Lake Effect snow downstream Lakes Erie and Ontario
is forecast to continue through tonight. 

The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 900 PM CST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
