Crucial Winter Storm Could Slam New Jersey

According to the National Weather Service, they have been getting a lot of questions about the potential weekend winter storm.

To answer those questions, there is about a 50-60% chance of snow.

That's all we know. We do NOT know how much snow we'll be getting yet. The storm is still a few days away, and a lot can change.

Could we get significant amounts? Sure, but there's still a chance we end up getting insignificant amounts. Greatest threat is Friday night and Saturday morning.

As is common with storms, there is a great deal of uncertainty regarding the storm's path at this early stage. According to this specific forecast, a "phase" between two energy sources could produce a powerful and crucial storm on Saturday.

For this late-week storm, there are two possible outcomes. In one scenario, this storm moves further south with less ice and snow. We may have a significant snowstorm from the Carolinas to the mid-Atlantic, possibly extending to eastern New England, if the storm is directed up the coast and gets stronger, said Bernie Rayno, chief on-air meteorologist for AccuWeather.

"Will it snow again on Saturday?" is the most important question that people are asking on social media.

And how much snow will we get, if any? Unfortunately, the"howmuch?"question is still beyond the reach of even the best forecasters.

According to News12NJ, the climate is not conducive to a significant snowfall. Will there be snow? Most likely, yes. Saturday will bring about a similar scenario to Sundays storm, which encouraged more accumulations in the southern portion of the state.

However, there are a lot of moving parts. Snow is predicted in the forecast but just how much we still do not know. In southern New Jersey, accumulations would be higher, and as you travel north along the Garden State Parkway, they would decrease.
