Significant Storm Likely

Winter storm warnings and watches are in effect for the area. Models have waffled this morning, but the noon time runs have brought more consistency. Storm is currently moving through the southeast US and is poised to make it to the coast. From here, models are showing the low pressure moving north from Cape Hatteras NC and off the SNJ/Del coast. It will then move ENE out to sea. What to expect: as of now, snow starts in the morning hours of Saturday. Snow becomes heavy at time Sat afternnon through the evening. It will continue to snow overnight and tapper off Sunday morning. As of now, 6-12" looks plausable. The other part of the storm will be sever beach erosion. The coast has been battered all ready this year, and this will be another hit. Expect near blizzard conditions and even a possibility of thundersnow. These features will be dependent on the exact position and strength of the low. More to come!
