Eastern US braces for a potentially disruptive snowstorm next week Following a break from winter storms and arctic air, colder conditions and the potential for snow will return to parts of the eastern United States spanning Tuesday to Thursday of next week. Temperatures will moderate and storms will retreat northward later this week and this weekend across much of the nation. Colder air will seep southward into the East next week. Highs in the 30s and 40s F will replace 50- and 60-degree temperatures in many locations from the southern Appalachians to the New England coast. According to AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Elliot Abrams, "The cold air coming in next week will not be nearly as cold as the outbreak that occurred over the Valentine's Day weekend." However, the cold air may coincide with one or more storms that are likely to track near the Atlantic Seaboard during the middle days of next week. www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/cold-air-snow-storm-potential-may-return-to-eastern-us-next-week/55464260

However, which form of precipitation falls will depend on the exact track and strength of the storm.
"Until the storm actually forms, it will be difficult to resolve the exact storm track," AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Elliot Abrams said.
Straight out of the article.

By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather.com Senior Meteorologist February 18, 2016; 1:08 PM ET Snowstorm in the offing for eastern US next week as cold air funnels into region A storm from the Gulf of Mexico will turn northward along the Atlantic Seaboard next week, potentially resulting in a snowstorm for parts of the East. As colder air returns to the region next week, highs in the 30s and 40s F will replace 50- and 60-degree temperatures. Just enough cold air may seep in at a key time to allow snow to fall during all or part of the storm from the Appalachians to portions of the mid-Atlantic and New England coasts. "As has been the case with recent storms, there will be a sharp gradient line between one place getting a big snowstorm and a lot of rain," Abrams said. A storm path just inland of the coast would result in a warmer scenario in the swath from the Interstate 95 corridor to the beaches with mostly rain. A storm track slightly offshore might allow coastal areas to be cold enough for snow during all or most of the storm. www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/cold-air-snow-storm-potential-may-return-to-eastern-us-next-week/55464260

Every year around this time I can look out my kitchen window and see the sun sparkling off of the stream on my property. The leaves are off but the angle of the sun is getting higher. It always reminds me that spring is near. The stream looks like a dancing silver ribbon.
