A swath of snow will continue to spread northeastward spanning from southern New Jersey, southeastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod, Nantucket and Down East Maine through Nova Scotia into Wednesday.
Moving up the coast, the storm will bring minimal snow between 1-3 inches for areas from New York City to Hartford, Conn.
Due to the strong March sun, the storm's biggest impacts will occur Tuesday night as the storm intensifies up in the New England area. Areas from Providence, R.I., to Portland, Maine, including, Boston and Portsmouth, N.H., will be among the regions that could experience blizzard conditions.
The regions with the biggest blizzard potential will be Cape Cod, Down East Maine and parts of Nova Scotia.
As the storm travels north, strong winds will accompany the storm, causing severe drifting of snow and likely creating limited visibility and treacherous travel conditions on the roadways. Downed power lines and trees are also likely, as strong wind gusts will accompany the storm.

While the most intense part of the system will occur Tuesday night through Wednesday morning in New England and up through Nova Scotia, flight delays up and down the East Coast are possible, as some of the nation's major airport hubs will fall in the path of the storm.
Upon departing the United States, the heaviest snow of the storm will move into the Maritimes and western Newfoundland accompanied by hurricane-force winds.

GLOBAL WARMING SPECIAL ALERT!!!!!!LIVE: Blizzard Conditions in Store for Cape Cod to Down East Maine accuweather.com/en/weather-new…
- Luis Arroyo · Top Commenter · Arts High School8 am...blue skies w cirrus overhead.
11am....cirrustratus sun dimming, still strong.
1pm....sun now safely dim to look at.
3pm....sun a white round "blur " in overcast cirrustratus. darker altocumulus and stratus seen approaching northward from the south.
4 pm... Darker clouds retreat southward, sun brightens through overcast. Yellowish overcast and spotty blue skies visible towards northwest.
I think its going to be a third or 4th near miss in a row. 
Luis Arroyo · Top Commenter · Arts High SchoolFunny how the last "live" storm update was 3:24.
After fading behind cirrustratus /altostratus clouds, the sun is now dangerous to look at. Its bright and sunny in Newark/NYC. Looks like a very hazy summer sun strugglung to cast shadows.
No cirrocumulus, altocumulus, mackerel, or any cumulus clouds. IN OTHER WORDS, A BONE DRY AIR MASS. Radar shows it clearly, as everything breaks up north of Delaware.
Paul Berger · Top Commenter · Brooklyn College1-3 inches is not a snowstorm. With the higher March sun angle and temps in the high 30's for me, I might not see anything stick.- Luis Arroyo · Top Commenter · Arts High School
