First Season Freeze Follows Northeast Storm This Weekend
A strengthening storm will bring rain to major Northeast cities, including Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, New York City and Boston, through Saturday. Higher elevations from the Appalachians to Maine could see wet snow, with several inches possible across the highest ridges. Slushy roads, falling tree limbs and isolated power outages are possible. Rain, low clouds, thunderstorms, snow-related fog and aircraft deicing could also cause flight delays. The storm is not expected to produce major nor'easter impacts, but blustery, chilly conditions will follow, with the season's lowest temperatures so far and widespread frost and freezes possible across the Southeast.
