A rapidly intensifying storm known as a bomb cyclone could bring crippling winter weather across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic this weekend. Snow, ice, strong winds and flooding are all on the table, giving rise to potentially hazardous travel conditions in those regions.
“Confidence is increasing that a significant winter storm will create considerable impacts Friday through the weekend from the Mid-Atlantic through the Northeast,” the Weather Prediction Center said Tuesday morning.
The storm is expected to move up the East Coast Friday into Saturday — its location in relation to the coast will determine whether there’s a wintry mix or a foot of snow.
If this occurs on Friday, a swath of 8 to 12 inches of snow is very likely over areas in southern New England.
