NATIONAL SUMMARY
Yet another snowstorm will pound the mid-Atlantic and
Northeast tomorrow, on the second day of spring. Snowfall
amounts up to a foot will be possible in the Interstate-95
corridor from near Boston to Philadelphia, as well as in
much of eastern Pennsylvania, northern Maryland and northern
New Jersey. Snowfall rates could reach 1 to 3 inches per
hour in the heaviest snow bands, which could lead to
whiteout conditions and snow-covered roadways. Major travel
disruptions, power outages and roof collapses are all
possible from the combination of heavy wet snow and gusty
winds up to 50 mph. Elsewhere, cold and brisk conditions
will continue to chill areas from the Southeast to the
Midwest and northern Plains. A storm system will barrel into
California with heavy rain and snow in the Sierra Nevada.
