A very strong coastal storm will dump heaps of snow across the Northeast
Thursday and Friday. The heaviest snowfall will come Thursday afternoon and
Thursday night when the region from northeastern Pennsylvania through central
New York gets as much as 1 to 2 feet. That combined with 30- to 40-mph winds
will force some roads to close.
The storm will produce moderate to heavy snow in the high country of West Virginia and western Pennsylvania and also through western New York and southern Ontario.
