New York City might get an hour or two of snow before precipitation winds down, and the heaviest snow is likely in New England. There will be a sharp northwest cutoff to the precipitation, so although models are rather bullish on snow accumulation across northwestern Vermont and the Champlain Valley of New York state, human forecast intuition suggests reason for skepticism.
Strong winds gusting to 40 mph in the lower elevations and to 50 mph or more in the Blue Ridge, Alleghenies and higher peaks of the Appalachians might make for near-blizzard conditions.All told, much of Pennsylvania and New York state will wind up with 3 to 5 inches of snow. Some 6-to-10-inch amounts are probable in northern and eastern areas and at higher elevations. Some double-digit totals can’t be ruled out, especially in the mountains of northern New England.For D.C.
On Friday evening, a clustered band of thunderstorms will begin lifting northeast out of the Gulf of Mexico and drifting ashore over the Florida Panhandle as the low’s attendant cold front sharpens to the west. With an abundance of wind shear, or a change of wind speed and/or direction with elevation, a number of those cells will rotate. Damaging straight-line winds and a few tornadoes are possible.
