Blizzard Warnings Up Along The South Coast and Eastern Mass.

Get ready.  The first "real" winter storm of 2015 is headed our way.  Blizzard warnings are in effect for eastern Massachusetts.  A major winter storm is about to bury Southern New England with up to two feet of snow.  Here's the latest from the Weather Channel:

The high confidence in forecast wind and snowfall has led the National Weather Service to issue blizzard warnings well in advance of the storm. Those warnings stretch from parts of New Jersey all the way to Downeast Maine, including the cities of Boston, Providence, Hartford and Portland. The warnings go into effect as early as 1 p.m. Monday in the New York City area; the warnings for Downeast Maine begin in the wee hours of Tuesday morning. Most of the warnings are valid through late Tuesday night.

At least 28 million people are under the blizzard warnings. An additional 11 million people are under winter storm warnings, mostly in areas adjacent to the blizzard warning zone.

Now is the time to prepare and make sure you have the supplies you need for this potentially historic winter storm. Do not proceed with any travel plans in the affected areas late Monday and Tuesday or you could put yourself in great danger.

Key Points:

• Moderate-to-heavy snow likely from portions of the coastal Mid-Atlantic (New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania) to New England.
• Peak impacts late Monday through Tuesday night.
• Widespread accumulations of 1 to 2 feet likely with some areas picking up over 2 feet.
• Blizzard or near-blizzard conditions will make travel dangerous and impossible.
• Flight cancellations, major delays and possible airport closures late Monday through Tuesday.
• Damaging wind gusts and coastal flooding also possible.
• Lighter snowfall from the Midwest to the central Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic Sunday into early Monday..
