Sending a quick outlook on the potential storm this Wednesday. The storm will be very marginal in temperature along I-95 which will make this a somewhat difficult forecast. There are many factors with this storm that make it not an Ideal (for snow lovers) track for a lot of snow.
1. No Real blocking up north to hold cold air.
2. Storm comes in to departing colder air - the Arctic blast is moving away
3. A more wound up storm will flood the area with warm air
4. A weaker storm may end up with a light snow event.
What I do believe:
1. I-81 corridor of VA will see snow.'
2. The immediate Piedmont of the mountains could see the most snow.
3. Areas about 30 miles east of the immediate Piedmont could be the location where snow to a mix and then back to snow will occur.. ironically the higher precip amounts could offset the amounts due to mixing.
4. East of I-95 will see rain with some mixing at the end of the event.
There is a lot of time to monitor. Areas up north of VA and NC will also see a lot of snow and Southern New England may again be in the heavy snow!
A lot to watch so please check back as we get closer. Planning on a map by tomorrow late.
All for now!
