Discussion

Snow will wind down early today as an initial system pushes away from the Mid-Atlantic region and another system will head in this direction for tonight and early Friday. This next system will have little to no impact around here, however, as it’ll be suppressed farther to the south compared to the initial wave. A stronger system set to arrive this weekend will have more moisture to deal with than these first two and it could result in more significant ice and/or snow in the Mid-Atlantic region. And yes, there may be two other storms to deal with in the Mid-Atlantic region next week with significant snow and/or ice on the table for either or both of these systems.
