   Friday: The developing low-pressure system will spread light snow and gusty winds through the Great Lakes. Blizzard conditions develop by Friday night along the Lake Superior shoreline of Upper Michigan.

   Saturday: Light to moderate snow spreads from the eastern Great Lakes into the Northeast as the arctic front advances. Blustery west to northwest winds will accompany this snow. Snow is possible from the Appalachians and Virginia north to New York state and much of New England by afternoon (see map at left).

   Saturday night: Heavy snow and increasing wind in New England, particularly near the coast from Maine to southeast Massachusetts. Snow and wind also farther west over the Hudson Valley, NYC metro, central/western New York, northern Pennsylvania, at least northern New Jersey. Farther south from southern New Jersey into the Mid-Atlantic states, snow will be limited but very strong north to northwest winds will develop, especially in coastal areas and around Chesapeake Bay.

   Sunday: Heavy snow and high winds possible in much of New England, especially eastern sections. Blizzard conditions possible. Snow winds down farther west. Strong, gusty winds remain a concern across much of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic coast, even in areas where snow stops falling.

   Sunday night: Snow may linger in Maine, Cape Cod, but should taper off elsewhere. Significant blowing/drifting snow continues over much of New England.

   Regardless where the low tracks, behind the arctic front and intensifying offshore low, bitterly cold air will settle in, driven by strong winds, leading to dangerous wind chills.

   Temperatures may remain stuck in the single digits or, at best, teens much of Sunday in New England, with lows in the single digits above or below zero by Monday morning.

   So how many years in a row has this been ?
   You would think they would just evacuate the entire north east to the west coast LOL.

   Oh well it will help the tourist industry.

   just kidding.

   I’m really questioning my wisdom in moving away from SD. 🙁

   LOL. Though it’s a bit quicker to get to Florida for those on the east coast.

   That’s true, Gabe.

   But then you’re in Florida.

   I wonder how much it would cost to build a big enough pipeline to divert floodwater from the Mississippi into the Colorado to send on to AZ, NV, and CA? Would it be cheaper than desalination?
