Northeast: A widespread 3 to 6 inches expected across northern New Jersey, southeastern New York, and much of central and eastern New England, with some locations, including in northern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, upstate New York, and northern New England now predicted to get between 6 inches and a foot of accumulation.
Mid-Atlantic: 2-4 inches forecast for cities like Philadelphia and Washington, DC, with some areas near and northwest of the I-95 corridor seeing up to 6 inches.
Appalachians: Heavier snow, up to 6 inches, likely in the mountains of eastern West Virginia and far western Maryland.
"We are very confident that snowfall amounts will tend to ramp up from southwest to northeast in the region with the greatest amounts likely in New England," AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said.
Timing, Track
Sunday Morning: Snow spreads from the central Appalachians and Virginia into the mid-Atlantic, including Baltimore and Washington, DC, before moving north into Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Sunday Afternoon/Evening: Snow arrives in New York City, Long Island, the Hudson Valley around midday, then in much of upstate New York, and New England later in the afternoon.
The storm will produce wet, heavy snow, making it harder to shovel.
Snowfall will taper off Sunday night as the system moves out quickly.
Deep Freeze Follows
The snowfall will stick around a while because the storm will be followed by the strongest cold blast of the winter season, with the lowest temperatures Tuesday, Jan. 21 through Thursday, Jan. 23 and wind-chill values below zero.
Due to the cold and blustery conditions forecast for Monday, Jan. 20, President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration in Washington, DC, has been moved indoors. Sub-freezing temperatures are expected, with highs in the low-20s and wind chills making it feel even colder.
