'Major' winter storm to bring heavy snow from Midwest into Northeast

Quote
Days of recent snow across the Northeast may have served as a preview for a major winter storm that's forecast to bring heavy snow into the region Sunday before the next Arctic blast of cold.

The National Weather Service said in its forecast discussion the storm system is bringing snow from the Central Plains, with the "most significant" snow to be expected across the Central Appalachians and into the Northeast.

Snow I can accept -- it's normal for March around here.  But temperatures in the teens and single numbers?  That's January weather. 

That groundhog was wrong.

Wunderground.com says 5-8 inches for here in western Connecticut from about 6pm to 6am or so.
I might even have to use the snowblower for the first time this winter!

Meh...we got about 3” in the KC area. It is only 11°, though. That’s the miserable part.

We were nine below last night.
but not to worry... on the periphery of the long range forecast, a week of 30's and then 40's and 50's.
We'll be sending it your way :D

Chins up folks, this is still going to be "the hottest year on record", like every year.

Thank you.  We could use some global warming around these parts.  18 degrees with a wind chill of 9 above.  Just too cold.

"Hey, it was warm in February! I said it would be an EARLY spring, I didn't say anything about it STAYING!"

@Applewood
One of the most wonderful things in this world is when the Chinook winds start blowing.
Right now there's around four feet of snow on the ground, and in a week, all gone... It is a beautiful thing.

Not to worry, it's coming.  :beer: :0001:
