(Bloomberg) -- A fast-moving storm will bring light snow up the East Coast starting late Thursday in Washington and overnight in New York.
A winter weather advisory stretches from North Carolina to New Jersey in advance of the storm that could bring 2 to 3 inches of snow to Washington and Baltimore by the time commuters are heading into work Friday, the National Weather Service said. New York could pick up about 2 inches.
“I don’t think it will have a big impact,” said Bob Oravec, a senior branch forecaster at the U.S. Weather Prediction Center in College Park, Maryland. “But historically some of our worst traffic has been with a little bit of snow. Usually that is when they aren’t expecting it.”
