Continued Snow for the Northeast on Wednesday
A strong area of low pressure will continue to progress across the region today, bringing the potential for gusty winds, moderate to heavy snowfall, and cold air to the region. Widespread snowfall amounts of 8-12 inches are forecast, with locally higher amounts. Some light icing may develop along the coast. With the cold air in place, snow will be dry. Combined with wind gusts in excess of 45 mph, there will be the potential for blowing snow and whiteout conditions. Use extreme caution while traveling, as roads will likely become hazardous or impassible in some areas.
