Weather forecasters are advising New Yorkers to enjoy the current spring weather while it lasts because another nor’easter is headed to the east coast.
A nor’easter is a storm generated from northeastern winds. The snowstorm is expected to hit on Tuesday night.
The National Weather Service went as far as calling it a “Nor’easter bomb.” A “bomb” is used to signify a system in which low-pressure centers deepen drastically.
According to the NWS warning:
“The east-coast cyclone has the potential to produce late-season heavy snowfall over a wide swath of real estate from Virginia to New England; that is a generality at this point. Much remains in terms of refining the forecast state by state. Another high-impact factor will be the powerful winds generated by this sprawling, intense circulation, along with high seas, beach battery, coastal flooding, and so forth. Again, at this point, such sensible weather effects are simply attendant to the potential of such a storm.”
