Nor'easter

Batten down the hatches! We are in the eye of our fourth Nor'easter this March. Just in time for the Spring Equinox.

Eye of the storm.

For those who haven't experienced it, Nor'easters are usually accompanied by very heavy rain or snow, and can cause severe coastal flooding, coastal erosion, hurricane-force winds, or blizzard conditions.



Nor'easters are usually most intense during winter in New England and Atlantic Canada. Winter storm warning remains in effect all along the Eastern Seaboard.

Heavy precipitation is expected in California over the next couple days. Several inches of rain may lead to flash flooding in southern/central California, including debris flows from burn scars.


Up to five feet of snowfall is expected in the Sierra Nevada. With the fourth Nor'easter of March bringing heavy snow, wind, and coastal flooding to the Mid-Atlantic and New England.
