Snow is developing in parts of North Carolina and Virginia as a storm moves quickly across the mid-Atlantic region, although low pressure intensifying off the coast will spare most of the rest of the East Coast of snow, The Weather Channel reports.
The Outer Banks, along with the area stretching from Myrtle Beach, S.C., out to Raleigh, N.C., and up into Norfolk, Va., are expected to see potential snow. Friday morning has seen snowfall in parts of northern Georgia already, as the system moves up the coast, according to The Weather Channel.
Light snow is expected across Kentucky and Tennessee, with central and northern North Carolina getting snow later in the day, but 1 to 3 inches could fall on the northeastern part of the state and in the Outer Banks.
Today, the Appalachians and New England will continue to see potentially record-cold temperatures, prepping the area for potential snowfall later in the evening as moisture makes its way into the area.
Snow squalls and "a period of steady snow may develop for a time in eastern Massachusetts during Friday night and in Maine on Saturday," according to AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Bernie Rayno. The Northeast will see most of its snow tonight into Saturday, with most areas receiving 1 to 2 inches. Maine will see the most snow, around 3 inches, but parts of the coastline may receive as much as 8 to 12 inches, per The Weather Channel.
The eastern Great Lakes region could also see around 1 to 3 inches Saturday, stretching from Cleveland and east past Pittsburgh, and as far north as Buffalo, N.Y., and as east as Burlington, Vt.
Following the weekend, President's Day is set to bring more potential snow and ice across the Midwest and into the Northeast, with the Ohio Valley, Appalachians and mid-Atlantic seeing a great chance of freezing rain and sleet. Snow is possible in these areas heading into Monday night, with the I-95 corridor and most of New York and Pennsylvania potentially seeing snowfall, reports Weather Underground.
