A major winter snowstorm is barreling toward several mid-Atlantic states and into New England, potentially impacting more than 45 million people. Forecasters predict that New York and Boston may see a foot of snowfall, and western Maryland and south-central Pennsylvania could get up to two feet of snow, according to the Weather Prediction Center.
The National Weather Service warns the nor’easter “would likely lead to very dangerous travel conditions and isolated power outages,” and says Boston may see wind gusts of up to 50 miles per hour.
If the news of being slammed with a winter snowstorm strikes you as the inevitable “cherry on top” of a year that’s been anything but easy, you’re not alone.
