A strengthening storm is bringing rain to Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, New York City and Boston, while higher elevations across the Northeast could see wet snow into Saturday. AccuWeather meteorologists say many high-elevation areas may receive a slushy coating to a couple of inches, with several inches or more possible on the highest terrain. Rain, low clouds and thunderstorms could cause flight delays into Saturday morning, while snow weight could lead to isolated power outages. The forecast also outlines limited coastal flooding risk and possible brief northeast winds in New England.
