Washington, District of Columbia – A developing winter system could bring accumulating snow to the densely populated I-95 corridor beginning Sunday and continuing into Monday, potentially impacting millions from Maryland to New York City and Long Island.
According to the National Weather Service Weather Prediction Center, a storm organizing over the eastern United States may track close enough to the coast to spread heavy snow across parts of Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and southeastern New York late Sunday into Monday. The highest impacts appear possible along and north of the Interstate 95 corridor, including Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York City and Long Island.
Snow could begin as early as Sunday afternoon in parts of Maryland and southern Pennsylvania before expanding northeast Sunday night. Travel conditions may deteriorate rapidly, especially if snowfall rates increase overnight into the Monday morning commute. Major routes including I-95, I-295, the New Jersey Turnpike and the Long Island Expressway could become snow-covered.
While exact totals remain uncertain, plowable snow appears increasingly likely across portions of the Mid-Atlantic and southern New England. Coastal areas may also see gusty winds, leading to blowing snow and reduced visibility.
Residents should monitor forecast updates closely and prepare for potential travel disruptions late Sunday through Monday. Winter weather advisories or storm watches may be issued as confidence increases.
