Storm to Hover Over Northeast, Unleash Unrelenting Snow! accuweather/…/northeast-snowstorm-s…/38723180 By Alex Sosnowski, Expert Senior Meteorologist December 11, 2014; 2:06 AM ET Colder air will invade the storm in the Northeast bringing heavy snow in upstate New York and a change to snow in other parts of the mid-Atlantic and New England through Thursday. A surge of warmer air will continue to allow rain and not snow over much of eastern New England, southeastern New Brunswick and Nova Scotia into part of Thursday. Meanwhile, the slow movement of the storm will allow cold air to catch up with lingering moisture farther to the southwest in the Northeastern states. Portions of the northern tier of Pennsylvania, central and northern upstate New York and southern Quebec could receive 6-12 inches (15-30 cm) of snow with locally higher amounts through Thursday. The worst travel conditions will be along Interstate-81 north of Scranton Pennsylvania to the Canada border and the I-90 portion of the New York Thruway, from Utica to Rochester. In part of this area, the weight of the snow can bring down some tree limbs and cause sporadic power outages. Occasional snow is forecast to settle into parts of central and southeastern Pennsylvania, northwestern New Jersey and western New England as the colder air is drawn into the storm.
