The developing nor’easter will likely bring heavy snow to some areas that have had little thus far this winter, which is just about at the midway point.
“At this stage, it appears that areas along Interstate 95 from Washington, D.C., to Baltimore and Philadelphia will probably pick up at least a few inches of snow,” AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist John Feerick said.
“Additionally, confidence is growing that much of the Interstate 95 corridor from Washington D.C. northward will see several inches, with totals possibly exceeding a foot in some spots.”
Farther to the north, New York City is close to its seasonal average to date with 10.6 inches. The upcoming storm has the potential to pad the Big Apple’s total for the winter of 2020-21 and perhaps double it.
Another factor that is likely to contribute to substantial snowfall with this storm will be the duration. Snow of varying intensity may occur for two to three days in some locations, instead of the more typical eight to 12 hours that occurs with most winter storms.
