"A low-pressure system moving from Pennsylvania to Maine is expected to drop 6 inches of snow or more in multiple states and tie up the Tuesday evening commute, according to the National Weather Service. Forecasters also say parts of Appalachia specifically areas along the border between Virginia and West Virginia will see widespread icing that could create dangerous conditions on roadways and sidewalks."
"The frigid forecast for the Northeast comes after heavy snow fell across multiple states in the Midwest over the busy travel weekend. Between 6 and 11 inches of snow came down in northwestern Indiana and northern Illinois, where Chicago set a new record for the most snowfall in one November day. In Milwaukee, where local officials declared a snow emergency, snowfall totals ranged from 6 inches to a foot."
"Federal forecasters now say parts of New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine could see at least a half inch of snow by Wednesday morning. The heaviest snowfall could occur in a swath of land from the Poconos in Pennsylvania to coastal Maine, where 5 to 10 inches are expected. More than an inch of snow could fall per hour, the NWS warned. The system will move out of the Northeast and into Canada by Wednesday morning."
A low-pressure system moving from Pennsylvania to Maine will bring the region's first significant winter storm, expected to drop 6 inches or more across multiple Northeastern states and disrupt the Tuesday evening commute. Areas along the Virginia–West Virginia border will face widespread icing that can create dangerous road and sidewalk conditions. Down East Maine could see up to a foot of snow, and five New Jersey counties were placed under a state of emergency. Recent Midwest storms produced 6–11 inches, with Chicago setting a November single-day snowfall record. The system will move into Canada by Wednesday.
