"Forecasters: New, Lesser Storm May Hit East Coast"

"WASHINGTON -- Another messy — and wintry — storm may cause post-Election Day problems for an already weather-weary East Coast, forecasters say."



"But meteorologists add that it's six days out, so that's rather early to get too worried. The forecast could change before it hits late next week.

The National Weather Service's forecast center in College Park, Md., which watches winter storms, put out a long-range notice Thursday saying a nor'easter was possible for mid-Atlantic and New England states by Election Day through next Thursday.

Forecaster Bruce Sullivan said it wouldn't be as bad as Superstorm Sandy and isn't tropical. But it could include snow in interior New England and New York, beach erosion and high winds for areas hit by Sandy and moderate or heavier rainfall. Winds could be about 30 to 40 mph."

Seth Borenstein reports for the Associated Press November 1, 2012.
