AccuWeather reports there is a chance that multiple storms next week could sync with colder air that settles into the East to bring snow or a wintry mix to part of the region.

Following near-record warmth during the middle of this week, colder air will arrive in stages from the latter part of this week and into the second week of February.The pattern will help to set up a storm track from southwest to northeast along the Atlantic Seaboard next week. The air could be cold enough for wintry precipitation in some areas of the East by then.High temperatures during the first few days of next week will range from the low 30s in the mountains to the low to mid-40s along the Atlantic coast, with potential for high temperatures to fall into 30s along the Interstate-95 corridor.The first storm will make its run near the East Coast Sunday into Monday.Should the first storm track close to the coast, rain and/or wet snow could fall in the swath from the Carolinas and Virginia to southern New England with snow or a wintry mix farther north.If the first storm swing well off the coast, then little or no precipitation would occur.The latter scenario is most likely with the early week storm. Rain will skirt the coast from the Carolinas to southeastern Virginia on Sunday.A second storm could have significant wintry impact for the the mid-Atlantic and Northeast.By Tuesday, the air will likely be cold enough to support snow farther east, perhaps right to the Atlantic coast. However, how quickly that second storm forms will determine how much of the mid-Atlantic region receives accumulating snow.The odds of accumulating snow and the potential for a significant snowstorm will increase farther north from the upper part of the mid-Atlantic to New England spanning Tuesday into early Wednesday.The developing storm could bring snow for the New Hampshire primary on Tuesday."As with any pattern change, there is a period of uncertainty and the potential for swings in the forecast," AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Elliot Abrams said. "It is too early to make a call, one way or the other, until we gauge how the colder air and the two storms will interact with each other."
