The weather system that has unleashed an all-out blizzard in parts of the north-central U.S. and deadly tornadoes in the South is far from finished. Next up, it will take aim at the Northeast.
, there will be a transition from rain to a wintry mix to all or mostly snow, which is often the case with a storm that tracks just off the Atlantic coast. Travel in these directions from the major cities will become progressively worse during the storm. The wintry mix zone may be close to I-78 in Pennsylvania, I-278 north and west of New York City and I-95 just north and west of Boston.
Boston picked up its first measurable snow of the season on Sunday when just under an inch accumulated. Meanwhile, people in Manhattan had their first snowflakes from Sunday to Monday, when some of the surrounding boroughs picked up a tenth or two of an inch of snow. Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, D.C., have yet to be visited by snowflakes this season. Even if sleet occurs and 0.1 of an inch manages to accrue, then it will count as the first measurable snowfall in these cities.
The rain will pour down at a heavy rate and be accompanied by a period of gusty winds from the east and southeast. Heavy rain can lead to ponding on the highways with an increased risk of vehicles hydroplaning from the New York City area through southeastern New England. The combination of rain, wind and slick runways can lead to substantial airline delays and perhaps even a ground stop for a time.
