Widespread heavy snows are likely over the next few days from the Great Lakes, upper Ohio Valley, central Appalachians, northern Mid-Atlantic, and into the New York City metro area/southern New England region as a elongated area of low pressure over the Mississippi Valley pushes eastward. One area of low pressure is forecast to deepen over the upper Ohio Valley Tuesday and push northward into the eastern Great Lakes by early Wednesday. At the same time, another area of low pressure will deepen rapidly along the Mid-Atlantic coast, becoming the stronger of the two lows by early Wednesday. Areas of the northern Mid-Atlantic that are still digging out from the historic blizzard of February 5-6 have the potential to receive additional snowfall totals of 10 to 20 inches.
