Tens of millions of Americans in the Northeast are under winter weather advisories as Winter Storm Viola threatens to dump up to ten inches of snow on New York City, which has already seen double its regular snowfall with 34 inches this year.
The National Weather Service (NWS) winter weather advisories are in effect from Thursday morning until early Friday evening due to a 'major' winter storm impacting an area stretching from Virginia up to the Northeast with dangerous, icy buildups and heavy snowfall.
'The swath of heaviest snowfall is forecast to occur from the Appalachians of Virginia and West Virginia to northern Maryland and southern Pennsylvania,' the NWS said, warning of treacherous travel conditions.
According to AccuWeather, New York City is predicted to be in the heart of the snowstorm with between 3 to 5 inches of snow by Thursday night.
An additional 1 to 3 inches of snow is possible Thursday night into Friday morning. Manhattan could possibly see 6 to 10 inches of snow by the time the storm moves out of the area.
Forecasters said that New York City has received nearly twice its normal seasonal snowfall with nearly 33.8 inches compared to the usual 17.1 inches from December 1 to February 17. New York's snowiest winter was between 1995-1996 with 75.6 inches.
Snow is expected to fall at rates of 1-2 inches per hour through the midday hours of Thursday along the Interstate-95 corridor of the mid-Atlantic.
