Nor’easter storm set to hit hurricane-ravaged Northeast
Just as the New York and New Jersey area begins to see light at the end of Hurricane Sandy’s tunnel of destruction comes news of another storm.
The National Weather Service is predicting that a Nor’easter, a hurricane-like, macro-scale storm with gusts of wind up to 55 mph could reach the New York Metropolitan area on Wednesday, causing additional power outages and wind damage.
The Weather Service says that wind, not rain, will be the major issue here, compounded with a cold front that swept into the region on the weekend.
Accuweather.com says the most likely scenario is that the storm will blow up the East Coast sending wind, rain and snow from the Mid-Atlantic region up to New England. Although their predictions say that the storm won’t flood the area at the level of Hurricane Sandy, they reiterate that utility repairs to newly damaged power systems may be affected.
If high winds hit area airports on Tuesday evening and Wednesday, travelers can look forward to further delays and possible flight cancellations.
