WASHINGTON—Tens of millions of Americans from Washington to Boston and the Ohio Valley could be walloped by an end-of-the-week snowstorm, meteorologists say.
Although it’s still early, computer forecast models all see a windy, strong slow-moving storm. The big questions are where and how much.
“There’s going to be a big storm. Somebody’s going to get walloped,” said Victor Gensini, a meteorology professor at College of DuPage outside of Chicago, which should be spared. “It does look like it’s going to be a doozy.”
Rich Otto, lead forecaster at the National Weather Service’s Weather Prediction Center outside of Washington, said some major cities will likely see a foot or more of snow. Other meteorologists talked about 18 inches, two feet and more.
