Next Episode: Blizzard warnings for mid-Atlantic to New England as nor’easter looms

A still-developing winter storm is set to become a major nor’easter that will bombard New England with heavy snow and blizzard conditions this weekend. Winter storm watches were issued for portions of eastern Massachusetts, eastern Connecticut and Rhode Island on Wednesday in anticipation of some of the worst conditions from the storm. The watches will go into effect at 12 a.m. on Saturday.
Areas farther south in the mid-Atlantic and southern New England will not escape the storm, as several inches of snow and major travel disruptions are expected. Due to this, winter storm watches were issued early on Thursday morning for eastern portions of North Carolina and Virginia, central and southern New Jersey, all of Delaware, the Eastern Shore of Maryland, New York City, Long Island and southern Connecticut. With the storm moving from south to north, these watches go into effect slightly earlier, at 7 p.m. on Friday.
