WEST ISLAND: Big nor'easters have to run quite the gauntlet in getting themselves together in the fi...rst place, many days if not weeks ahead of time. Two gulfs far apart from each other, The Gulf of Alaska and The Gulf of Mexico could be the breeding grounds for developing low pressure that could eventually merge and organize their energy into one big blockbuster of a coastal storm that could pummel the Northeast later this weekend.
This potential scenario is being discussed with "little to NO confidence" in the future forecast this far ahead of the game. However it's STILL being talked about in the weather circles.
The ingredients are getting in place. The jet stream is ready to deliver this package like the many other storm systems lining up to transit towards the Northeast. Watch for the magic two words: "INSIDE RUNNER", which could mean we get spared lots of snow and get just buckets of rain instead.
