Does anyone have any information on the track of this next storm for thursday night and friday. Local mets here in central ohio say maybe 2 to 3 inches here.Anyone have any information on this?

Nobody's giving out numbers this early around DC, as the coastal nature is going to give us an interesting storm once again. I'll check some models real quick, and I can say something more on the subject.

GFS shows another all-snow event. For Ohio, no more than 3" at this point. Overall, the wettest part of the storm looks like a Norfolk rain event, with the highest snow totals approaching 5" in Southern MD.

This low is formed off the FL east coast.

NAM shows a wetter low forming over the central gulf and heading straight for the Mid-Atlantic. It also brings some warm air further north, almost to DC. Ohio would see 2-4", and the heaviest snow would be northern NJ, E PA, and northern Delmarva area. However, the freezing line is EXTREMELY close to all of these areas, and the heaviest precip may not fall as snow. This would leave amounts of 6-8 inches north and west of DC to be the heaviest, along with central PA and southern NY/New England area.

Well, we got nothing out of the last "system"..missed us entirely...Our locals as calling for flurries tomorrow night into Thursday...Is there any chance we will get some substantial accumulations here in southern WV????

With this thing tracking more north on last night's run...I would not be surprised if maybe some parts of OH get a few inches. As for southern WV...I'm not sure, but the locals could be right on this one.

We received about 2 - 3 inches of snow in my backyard from last night's event. We were fortunate that the roadways were still too warm for it to really pile up. It was a pretty ride in to work this morning.

not much snow inland, might be different along the coast north to around Boston.. Big LES snows behind the storm..

Looks like Accuweather is giving estimates of around 6 - 12 inches in the northern/western 'burbs of DC....

Don't take that too seriously yet. While it is a possibility, it's one of many different possible solutions.

Yeah. It could bust, one way or another.

NWS seems to believe that's on target here, as they just issued a Winter Storm Watch for the area.

What about southern Ontario? How does it look around the horseshoe of southern Lake Ontario?

Mostly dry, an inch or so at most. Indicated by both GFS and NAM.
