The impacts of a nor’easter budding for this weekend are taking aim for the Carolinas and Virginia, where anywhere from 5 to 12 inches of snow is possible. In addition to the snow, coastal flooding and strong, damaging winds can be expected with this system.
A brewing nor’easter that has a strong likelihood of “bombing out” is expected to impact the East Coast this weekend, and is looking increasingly likely to develop into an intensifying bomb cyclone.
Given the ingredients current models are projecting, it is becoming nearly certain that a powerful storm will develop, though uncertainty remains regarding exactly where the storm tracks along the East Coast.
There is growing confidence in major snow of up to a foot slamming the Carolinas and Virginia. The scenarios range from a crippling I-95 blizzard to a glancing blow.
