Weather forecast snow storm: Check met department area wise prediction for this week

US weather forecast: Snow storm is likely to take place this week. There are chances of at least one inch of snow in the northeast or mid-Atlantic middle of the week throughout the next weekend. Snow weather forecast is valid from Thursday evening to Saturday evening.

Weather Prediction Center of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has predicted that there is "probability of at least 1" of snow valid from 7 pm on Thursday till 7 pm on Saturday.

A wave of low pressure is likely to develop across the Ohio valley late Wednesday and then track eastward to off the mid-Atlantic coast Friday while strengthening.


This low pressure will cause expanding precipitation, with rain and high elevation snowfall possible. Much cooler than normal temperatures will accompany this system on Friday and through next weekend.

Yes, there is a chance for a low pressure system to bring mixed precipitation to the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast by next weekend. But, there remains a lot of uncertainty, NWS Weather Prediction Center stated.

Winter in the United States this year is predicted to be generally be wetter and warmer, but not necessarily snowier, according to the federal government's seasonal outlook and other meteorologists' forecasts.

While the weather service doesn't make seasonal snowfall predictions, their meteorologists said much of the northern parts of the country — including the Northeast, Great Lakes, Upper Midwest and Northern Rockies — should expect below-normal snow. The Southern Rockies, parts of the Southeast and Southwest may get more than they usually do.

The Northern snow shrinkage is also predicted by private meteorology firms. Salt Lake City is the only big metro area where AccuWeather expects above-normal winter snow amounts. Chicago, Boston, New York and Philadelphia are forecast to get about half or less of their normal winter snow, the firm said.

AccuWeather is more bullish than NOAA for snow in the Rockies regions, calling for Denver to have 10 to 18 days with at least 2 inches (5 centimeters) of snow, which is more than the historical average of 9 inches (23 centimeters). The company's overall snow forecast for Denver is still around average, but considerably more than last winter.
