the east coast will have some severe weather next week..just in time for Thanksgiving
report from www.accuweather.com
by AccuWeather.com Sr. Meteorologist Henry Margusity
The implications of Gamma for the East coast of United States are major. While, we do not expect Gamma will have tropical characteristics after leaving southern Florida, the moisture and energy will be entrained into a major storm. That storm may bring heavy rains and gales to the mid-Atlantic and New England coast and heavy snows to the Appalachians from the Carolinas to new England.Over a foot of snow is possible above 2000 feet. Even the major cities from Washigton to Boston could have snow at the tail end of the storm.

Is this a trend-setter for the upcoming winter? It very well could be. Quite frankly, if this were the middle of winter, we would be talking about an eastern blizzard. No doubt, a big storm is going to swirl up the Atlantic Seaboard early next week. Thursday, the AccuWeather.com forecasting staff was viewing it as a 50-50 sort of thing, since there seemed to be an equal chance the storm would turn out to sea. Friday, the odds shifted strongly in favor of the storm coming right up the coast Monday and Tuesday. The result will be heavy rain, gales on the coast and perhaps snow in the Appalachian Mountains. This large upheaval in the atmosphere will have major impact on the flow across all of North America. Of great significance will be the release of an extremely cold air mass from arctic regions. That air will charge southward in the wake of the storm later in the week, producing one of the coldest ends to November in many years.
