Thank you, these will help.

I just found this report in that link I sent........Low pressure area
surprise?..

http://www.weather.com/newscenter/fcstsummary.html

"Get ready for a headline storm to come racing up the East Coast. A low
pressure area will be emerging and exploding into action as it heads to
the Gulf of Maine. Watch for heavy snow and blizzard conditions to form
over the interior sections of northern Massachusetts to New Hampshire to
Maine. The snow potential will be highest over New Hampshire and Maine
with accumulations of over a foot likely, especially from central Maine
to down east Maine. The coastal cities from Providence to Boston to
Portland will be warm enough for rain to start and then they will mix to
snow to end the storm by afternoon. The energy associated with the
deepening low will bring strong winds 30 to 40 mph with gusts to over 50
mph possible by afternoon and evening as the storm evolves. New York
City will miss most of this storm with only some showers because the low
will develop beyond the area but the winds will be felt from the strong
gradient that develops. If you will be traveling be ready to hang on to
the wheel due to the winds gusting along I95 from Portland to
Washington, DC. Travel will not be recommended in interior and northern
Maine as the storm really cranks up with blinding snow and dangerous
conditions. Air travel will be delayed in the snow, rain, and winds.
Check ahead to your airline to see if the delays will slow your arrival
or departures. This storm will have a major impact from Delaware to
Maine for sea going vessels. If you don't have to confront this monster
storm DO NOT! It will be dangerous with high seas and weather you may
not be able to handle."
