Somewhat heavier to the south. 11 00 tomorrow night snowing hard over southeastern mass and the cape and that can continue into the wee hours of the morning sunday. Latest thinking on how much to expect and whatever you are looking at here could change and second of all we may have an even sharper change in amounts over a smaller number of miles than we can forecast. Right now north of the pike, north of boston id say 1 to 3 inches of snow. South of the pike and south of boston 3 to 6 inches of snow. From about providence to plymouth or marshfield on south 6 to 10 inches which includes the cape and the island. Even more for new york city, philadelphia, boston, and washington. Part of the area on the Northern Edge of the snow and part of the area on the Northern Edge of the heavier snow. It is still a very fluid situation that could change as we get closer to and even into the storm itself. We will stay on top of it for you. People living on the cape lets get to newscenter 5 live in sandwich with the concerns. They expect significantly more snow here but it is not the snow but the wind and the surf that is a concern.

You get to alexandria, only 2 inches. Well be adding a lot more snow before its over. Get out toward lexington and even parts of western kentucky were seeing now anywhere between a half foot and a foot of snow that has fallen so far. What were looking at here are the major cities are going to be hit up along the coast. D. C. Up through new york and fairly close to us. D. C. , 18 to 24 inches of snow. You get the general theme. Everybody is going to get probably a foot, someplaces two feet of snow. This is going to be incredible because you remember washington, d. C. , their record if they get to 28 inches is the most snow they have ever seen in their entire history. These are pretty impressive totals well be talking about and many more details as we continue.

It snows in washington but i understand the president is hunkered down and everybody is being prepared for what could be an historic snowfall. It does look like if i had to ballpark it id estimate about two feet of snow which is not bad. Maybe two or a little more. It is still going to flirt with us. Thats a good way to put it. People watching us from southern New Hampshire, watching from us cape cod, New Hampshire may never see a flake of snow. Marthas vineyard is under a blizzard watch. The further north you are the less the effect. The further south the greater the effects. That is the general idea. Lets show what were talking about with all of these wasmsfwaffs and warnings in effect all over the place. Nations capital you can see theyre under a blizzard warning. Also long island is. Much of new jersey. And then when we get into our area, very interesting. Right over here, the vineyard. The idea is the southern part of our area is going to get the heaviest precipitation. Therefore the heaviest snow which will reduce visibility the most and the vineyard is furthest south. Why isnt nantucket included . Because nantucket may get more rain mixed with snow at times which will raise visibility. The visibility requirement may not be met. On the vineyard there is certainly a chance the three hours or more visibility could drop to a quarter mile or less, winds frequently gust over 35 miles per hour, and it would be in periods of heavy snow. For much of the rest of the area you see in pink which is the southern half of rhode island, southern connecticut, southeastern mass, the cape, the waters of the southshore, that is a winter storm warning. So that is still a significant situation. Then we have a Winter Weather advisory for amounts more modest but still significant. Rhode island, and the rest of interior southeastern mass. Notice not for boston or points west. Very, very close call and any subtle shift, even 10 miles is going to mean a several inch difference in the amount of snow you could get with the storm. Thats what were talking about. Big changes in small number of miles in our area because were near the Northern Edge. Part of our area, the Northern Edge of the storm, part of our area the southern part in the Northern Edge of the heavy part of the storm. There is the snow filling the air in washington. Moving northeastward. Soon to be touching the ground in philadelphia and later on tonight in new york. Now, if youre getting up early tomorrow and youre in the northern rhode island or southeastern mass, you may already be starting to see flakes. The other thing is if youre right around boston or just inland of boston, you may also start to get some snow flurries which would be a little ocean effect as the wind becomes northeast to east. But in terms of the actual storm, the moisture from that, probably around noon time. This is 1 00. It would be lying right along the mass pike to boston. North but then will be a struggle to get further north into the very dry air across vermont, New Hampshire, and maine. This is not a snowstorm for vermont, New Hampshire, and maine at all but you will see the heavier bands here, south of the pike, parts of rhode island, and connecticut. And if there is a mix for a while along the coast it should go over to snow as the wind turns northeast and then eventually northerly. But here you are seeing the purples over here, the heaviest snow. Southeastern mass. This is toward dawn on sunday. Then everything will rapidly move off. So either if you start the day with clouds on sunday, probably going to be a lot of sunshine. It may even start clear in places like worcester, become sunny in boston later in the morning, rest of the day looks sunny. Itll take most of the day to clear down around the cape and the islands. My best estimate on the snow, please stick with us here. Been trying to tell you all along, this could be updated with time up to and even into the storm because of such a big difference in the small number of miles. But i say if youre north of boston, north of the pike, my best bet is about 1 to 3 inches you probably dont get any snow at all. But right along or just south of the pike quickly move up to 3 to 6 inches. Providence to plymouth, points south, 6 to 10 inches. That is the best estimate right now. Then there is the wind which could gust to over 50 miles an hour for the cape and the islands. Also very gusty along the coast. Especially cape ann and the waters of the south shore and even boston. Look at the wind gusts building during tomorrow and look how strong they get tomorrow night. Look at that. Could be gusts of 60 miles an island. Stays windy through the night. Even into sunday morning. Sunday afternoon the wind starts to relax and drop off a lot by the time we get to sunday night. Especially for high tide around 11 00 a. M. To noon on sunday, two hours before to two hours after that, especially watching all of the waters of the south shore, the cape, and the islands with that situation. Well certainly be telling you more about that as we go along. Once the storm exits sunday morning more pleasant weather will move in and in fact it is going to be mild early next week. Thats pretty good news. A few showers will come in roughly around tuesday. Somewhat Colder Weather will follow after that. Much more on the storm at 5 00.
