It may be an extra-long holiday for parts of the Northeast where a Nor'easter will blow through Sunday and Monday.The storm will develop Christmas Day off the coast of Georgia, spreading snow along the piedmont of the Carolinas and Virginia Sunday. The storm will barrel toward Boston Sunday night (the image at right is the computer model depiction for 10pm EST Sunday).
New York City, Boston and Providence could get hammered by 15" or more of snow and 50mph wind. There will be a very sharp west edge to the snow, but it does look like most of Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine will bear the brunt of the storm.
If the storm wallops New York City and Newark NJ, the impact on the rest of the country's air travelers will be tremendous on Monday. Flights will be delayed and canceled nationwide. If NYC and Newark are spared there will still be delays and cancellations because Boston will be hit hard, but it won't be as bad as having all three out of service.
