You probably heard that a snowstorm is approaching the major cities of the northeastern U.S. and the mid-Atlantic states.
Some forecasting models have outcomes as high as 24-36 inches of snow for some areas. Most at risk appears to be eastern PA, NJ, and MD. NYC and LI could also get hit with 18-24 inch amounts.
So far it looks a bit less extreme for most of New England, with forecast models saying 6-12 inches for most areas. That is also the case for western PA, central NY state, and some parts of the Midwest where the storm has already started.
Low pressure moving through Missouri at present time will track into Kentucky by Sunday. At that time, a coastal low will form off North Carolina, capture most of the energy of the inland storm, and produce heavy snowfall near the I-95 corridor. Strong east winds will develop near the coast, and inland the snow may blow around at times with near-blizzard conditions.
If you've heard a forecast for 6-12 inches, that may in fact verify but be aware that there are significant chances of a much heavier total snowfall especially around Baltimore to Philadelphia to NYC.
This thread can now be used for actual storm observations as we go forward. The east coast snowfall will begin Sunday afternoon. It will start soon in Ohio and w PA.
Temperatures with the snowfall are around 28-30 F, and a mixing zone is likely in parts of Delaware, southeast MD and southeast VA (sleet, ice etc). Heavy rain is the most likely outcome for Norfolk VA and that region. But the storm could transition to wet snow near the final portions on Tuesday.
Would advise some to stock up today before it gets messy as this may be a long-duration storm with a slow recovery period Tues-Wed. Could be Thursday before you'd want to go out again once the storm begins.
If only we had kept CO2 below 0.041% of the atmosphere
11-15” forecast for me in Eastern PA.
Amazing. I heard they call this phenomenon “Winter”.
On this day in 11,231 BC, the snow over northern Indiana measured 1.2 miles deep. (more or less) Natives were anxiously waiting for a thaw.
Forecasting 6-12” for Baltimore, yikes! I stocked up on stuff Friday, fortunately. I hope (1) it is overhype by the weather forecasters and (2) it gets cleaned up real fast.
The weather forecasts are so erratic along the Mass. coast just south of Boston, I wait for a day ahead of the storm forecast to get an idea of what is likely to happen.
That means Sun night and Mon AM I will pay attention. -Tom
So said "climate scientist" Dr David Viner – back in 2000
That’s old school. You have to call it climate change now.
Good way to top off my hot tub.
Oh my.
Snow is bipedal.
A foot or two of the Chinese Virus may really make the death toll rise.
Don’t worry! Biden’s “Civilian Climate Corps” will mobilize “a new, diverse generation of “Johnnies on the spot!” for the battle against climate change.

If they find two feet of snow, I’m pretty sure they didn’t come from Frosty.
He looks pretty round at the bottom.
Well, to be fair, so does Adam Schiff.
lol! Yep. Have you ever read the percentage of methane we have in the atmosphere? 0.00017% THAT tiny tiny tiny percentage, that you can literally read as zero point zero zero zero is what leftist idiots like AOC are talking about when they whine about how cow farts are burning up the earth. It’s NOTHING.
Same with freakin’ CO2. They are talking about gases that have a zero quality as it is and they think our infinitesimal contribution to that already zero quality is enough to change the composition of 5,000 quadrillion metric tons of atmosphere to the point where it will destroy life on earth. CO2 a NECESSARY gas for life!!
It’s such a ridiculous joke, an absolute hoax, and for that effin hoax they are destroying millions of jobs AND lives! I absolutely hate the Republican party, none of them in Washington ever get into the faces of people like AOC and DEBATE THE BITCH she knows NOTHING. While people are losing their entire career these punks are cashing their taxpayer created paychecks and letting democrats get away with anything they want
If leftists would stop exhaling CO2, the world would be a better place.
I hope it buries the White House completely and the can’t dig it out.
The predictions are quite varied, guess it depends which way the storm swings. It is a bi-storm.
“Is there anything out of the ordinary, Inspector?”
“Yes.....there is two feet of snow.”
“Amazing!”
“They are both in the freezer. We didn’t want them to melt. We’re looking for somebody who is cold and without feet.....like Nancy Pelosi, though she has three legs....like a wobbly stool.”
Dang it! I want snow and all we get is rain here in southern Indiana..... I saw 4 robins in my yard today, they used to not show up until March. My daffodils and crocuses are up, it’s not even February!
