A major storm is brewing for the northeastern United States, and it could deliver a foot or more of snow in some locations, AccuWeather meteorologists warn. Meanwhile, areas near the coast can expect high winds, coastal flooding and heavy rain as the weekend draws to a close and the new week begins.
A storm will form over the northeastern Gulf of Mexico on Sunday night and track northeastward along the Atlantic coast early next week. The combination of a large, southward jet stream plunge, a marked temperature contrast near the U.S. East Coast and warm Atlantic waters will allow the storm to strengthen quickly.
