Another East Coast Storm On The Horizon?

[Mr Mirchi]

As energy dives southward into the Midwest late Sunday, it will pivot eastward across the South and spawn a surface low off the Southeast coast. This low will then make the turn northward up the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast coast while intensifying.

If the low tracks close to the coast as our current forecast maps show, we will be dealing with a very windy, rainy and cold Wednesday into Thursday along the Northeast I-95 corridor. The strength and duration of the winds would be dictated by the exact track and strength of the low. The winds will kick up high surf along the coast that could lead to additional coastal erosion.

All in all, t[b]his is something to monitor for now and the exact details of the impacts still need to be ironed out in the days ahead.[/b] [b]Though this storm will not have near the magnitude of the impact Sandy had,[/b] the combination of rain, wind and snow will add insult to injury for the recovery process along the East Coast.
