April Fools' Storm?

Forecasters have predicted a major storm that is supposed to come just in time for April Fools' Day. The storm is supposedly going to develop Thursday by Virginia and get stronger by Friday in New Jersey and Southern England. It is predicted to produce 6-12 inches of snow. New York, Boston, and Philadelphia should be getting a lot of rain also. Because of the jet stream being farther south than usual, lower temperatures are expected. There have now been winter storm watches issued in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. The winds and snow produced by the storm will most likely lead to power outages and low visibility.

Weather always seems to be unpredictable. It's not only odd that there is a winter storm predicted but the storm is supposed to produce 6-12 inches of snow. I really hope these predictions aren't true. The weather has been improving lately and I want it to keep doing so. I'm sure most people living in the places under the winter storm watch are ready for spring and don't want the snow. This storm could possible shut down the Northeast side the the United States.
