New England’s Weekend: More Than a Foot of Snow, Coastal Flooding & High Winds
The Northeast US is bracing for more than a foot of snow in some areas this weekend, along with a significant chance for coastal flooding, and high winds that could bring down power lines and leave many without electricity. A winter storm watch has officially been posted from the National Weather Service.
The National Weather Service is calling for more than 12-18 inches of snow for almost all of Southern Maine:
