Weather Forecast Déjà Vu (aka another Monday snowstorm in New England)

SNOWSTORM UPDATE: If you are readying yourself to stop by Winterfest (Cherry Hill, today, starting at 1 pm), but are worried about that white stuff falling from the sky, fear not. Though we are indeed under a WINTER STORM WATCH from late tonight through late Monday night (yes, you read that correctly), we will only have light snow showers and flurries this afternoon.

What's ahead of us late tomorrow through Monday is a  l o n g  d u r a t i o n storm. There will be periods of light snow Sunday with snow becoming steadier and heavier as we get into later Sunday night though late Monday night. Monday is likely to be a mess (déjà vu, right?). Snow accumulations of 8-16" are expected across the region, with higher amounts north of the Mass Pike. Winds with this storm could gust to 30-40 mph which may create poor visibility and blowing and drifting snow. The good news is that the snowfall pattern looks like it will diminish somewhat in the second half of February - the bad news is that it will likely get even colder. In fact, we have the potential for near record cold later this coming week.

So go on and enjoy Winterfest - the next snowstorm nears but is not yet upon us.

  1. The best foods are vegetable soups (no tomatoes, potatoes or eggplant) with
    spices, (cardamom, cumin, coriander, fennel, black pepper, turmeric, etc.
    From the simple plastic or wooden constructions that young children can ride on, to tug or push
    toys that toddlers would enjoy to ride on, to motor-driven riders and miniaturized versions of popular car brands and makes which are popular with
    young kids, ride-on toys would always be a a part of any child's playtime menagerie.

    Ask people around, perform a little research or ask
    elders prior to going buying your loved one.
