NEW JERSEY — A developing winter storm threat for Sunday into Monday is beginning to take clearer shape, with an early impact map placing New Jersey, southeastern New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and eastern Massachusetts in what is being labeled the “Main Target Zone.”
While final track and intensity details are still being refined, the projected swath of impacts stretches from the Mid-Atlantic coastline northeastward through southern New England, suggesting a potentially significant late-February snowfall event.
Main Target Zone: NJ to Eastern MA
The highlighted core impact area includes:
- Central and southern New Jersey
- New York City and Long Island
- Coastal and inland Connecticut
- Rhode Island
- Eastern Massachusetts, including the Boston metro
This zone appears most favored for steadier precipitation and stronger coastal dynamics if the system tracks as currently expected.
The impact shading broadens inland across:
- Eastern Pennsylvania
- The Hudson Valley
- Interior portions of Massachusetts
- Southern Vermont and New Hampshire
- Coastal and southern Maine
Impacts Expected Inland as Well
Beyond the main coastal corridor, impacts are expected across a larger diagonal swath from the Delmarva Peninsula through eastern Pennsylvania and into northern New England…
