A wintry outbreak appears to be ongoing in the eastern US as millions of folks in Mid-Atlantic and Northeast states prepare for two more winter storms expected this week.
AccuWeather forecasters expected a wintry mix Wednesday night into Thursday and a second storm could produce accumulating snow Friday night into Saturday.
“The energy for the first storm is moving onshore along the Pacific coast on Monday, and if that catches up to the front a certain way, there could be a narrow, sneaky zone of 3 inches of snow from parts of the Tennessee Valley to the lower mid-Atlantic coast in the Wednesday night to Thursday time frame,” AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said.
Rayno warned, “this isn’t the only storm we have to watch this week.” He said a larger storm would develop in the Southern states and potentially move northward towards Mid-Atlantic and Northeast states and collide with “another fresh injection of Arctic air” between Friday and early Saturday.
The next round of cold air will keep average temperatures in New York City well below a 30-year average through the end of the month. This means heating demand will rise and put a bid under natural gas prices.
This time of the year on the island, absolutely nothing is going on with “tourists” – so let it snow. Now once Boat weekend comes middle of the month – ferrrrrrrrrrgitabout! The season begins all the way until NYE, then another 4-6 “break”.
Next years 4-6 week “break” will be recovery time after a new Mayor of OC is announced!
BRING IT!
Gosh, it almost covered up the grass! O.M.G.! We’re all DOOMED!
It’s supposed to snow in January people
