Reports: 4th nor'easter in 3 weeks yields snow day from DC to NYC, travel mayhem
For the fourth time this month, a major nor'easter is tracking through the Northeast, packing roads with snow and prompting officials to cancel school across the region.
Two hundred accidents were reported around Baltimore by Tuesday afternoon, and two people were killed in a crash in Pennsylvania as snow covered roadways.
"Anyone from just north of Baltimore to Philadelphia, New York City and close to Boston may easily pick up 6-12 inches of snow with the storm with locally higher amounts," said AccuWeather Senior Storm Warning Meteorologist Rich Putnam.
Coastal impacts are also possible, although this storm is likely to cause more moderate flooding and beach erosion compared to earlier storms this month.
12:36 p.m. EDT Wednesday:
National Weather Service spotters report that New York City has received 3-4 inches of snow. Some of the highest snowfall totals reported by spotters thus far include 13.9 inches in Greencastle, Pennsylvania, and 13.2 inches of snow in Martinsburg, West Virginia.
