Get ready, Blizzard number FOUR is heading for the Mid-Atlantic

[charlie and algernon]

(Feb. 23) -- The Middle Atlantic region has stolen most of the weather headlines this winter, but that's all about to change. The Northeast is going to be hit by a prolonged, major snowstorm in the coming days. Snowfall amounts might be measured in feet, and the combination of snow and wind will create an all-out blizzard at the storm's peak.

The details of the storm cannot be pinpointed yet, but combination of snow and wind will likely create blizzard conditions in the Catskills and Adirondacks of upstate New York, Vermont, northern New Hampshire, and northern Maine from later Thursday into Friday. Road and airport closures are likely, and the strong wind may bring down power lines and tree limbs. The intense combination of snow and wind might extend to areas close to the coast, including Boston, New York City, and perhaps Philadelphia.

A significant accumulation of snow will fall in interior parts of the Northeast, with a mixture of rain and snow in areas closer to the coast. Cumulative snowfall totals in the mountains, where all snow will fall with both storms, could reach three feet, with widespread accumulation of at least one foot from northern Maine to the Catskills.

It will, however, be the defining storm of the season for much of the Northeast.
