Snow Chances in the Northeast: What to Expect This Weekend
Snow chances stick to the interior Northeast on Saturday, with a few winter weather alerts in place. Snow accumulations will stick to the West of the I-95 corridor, with 1-3 inches of snow possible in some areas. Major Northeastern cities that are experiencing serious snow deficits for the year are likely to get a shot of snow this weekend as a system moves in from the Southeast.
On Saturday, patches of the interior Northeast will see light snow accumulations, with the most significant chance of snow falling to the north and west of Washington, D.C. up into Maine. According to the FOX Forecast Center, 2-4 inches of snow is possible in those areas, with locally higher amounts possible. Winter Weather alerts are in effect Saturday for small patches of the interior Northeast.

Expected Snowfall and Weather Alerts
This round of snow will stick to the west of I-95 for the most part as temperatures warm to the mid- to upper-30s and snow chances turn to rain as the day progresses. By Sunday, though, the area of low pressure that is forecast to drop snow across Georgia and the Southeast into Sunday is expected to shift into the Northeast, bringing snow chances from the Mid-Atlantic into New England.

Major Northeast cities like Philadelphia, Boston, and New York could see a few inches of snow by Sunday afternoon. The FOX Forecast Center said models are showing the area of low pressure moving closer to the East Coast than originally forecast, which could mean higher snow totals from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania up through Maine.

Implications for Snow-Deficient Cities
The snow offers a chance for some of the major cities of the region to climb more out of their 5-year-long snow deficit. Since 2021, Washington, D.C. is 25 inches below average, while New York City is almost 70 inches in the negative for snow. Boston takes the lead, however, with 103 inches less snow than average.
