Possible Nor'easter to affect the Northeast Thursday Night into Friday

     Just when you think spring is in the air, and the snow has finally melted, old man winter may strike again towards the end of this week.  Think this is only an April Fool's Joke?  Think again!  This storm has the potential of affecting several major cities located in the Northeast.  While many of the major metropolitan  cities will see mainly all rain along the I-95 corridor, areas further inland will endure heavy snow.  The low pressure system located in the pictures (depicted by the red L) will strengthen rapidly Friday morning as it makes its way on a path across the Cape Cod bend.   Heavy moisture will be pulled in off the Gulf of Maine and with cold enough temperatures here in the northern New England states, ample amounts of snow may be produced.  Expect anywhere from 6-12 inches with this next incoming storm for places in northern NY, VT, NH, MA and ME.  At this point, most people are just about sick of the winter, and are ready for the return of spring! I know I certainly am.
