It’s just about here, so that means it’s time to take a stab at some snow totals. First though, we still have some disagreement amongst the models tonight. The difference lies in the handling of a trough of low pressure in the Canadian Maritimes. The further south this feature is, the lighter the snow will be. Right now, the consensus leads me to a very snowy forecast for areas south of I-80.
One area of low pressure will run northward into Tennessee, then a stronger low will redevelop just inland from the South Atlantic coast. That low will then ride northeastward to the northern Outer Banks, and then start to slowly curve out to sea. Behind the storm, skies will start to clear Saturday night. Should we get any substantial clearing, temperatures will easily drop into the lower single digits with the fresh snow cover.
Here’s my snow map:

Thanks for the update. These snow-maps do me wonders with my job.
Your welcome, Jay. The snow maps can be tricky, especially with a storm like this. Always take them with a couple grains of salt.
They should at least give you an idea of where the storm will be the worst.
Thank you for the update, Tim.
Now I have an idea what to expect and when to expect it.
