Third nor'easter in 2 weeks on the horizon High winds and rough surf toss about the boat docks at Smuggler's Cove in Stone Harbor, N.J. on March 2. Residents along the Northeast coast braced for more flooding during high tides Saturday even as the powerful storm that inundated roads, snapped trees and knocked out power to more than 2 million homes and businesses moved hundreds of miles out to sea. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Sunday Mar 11, 2018 at 9:55 AM Mar 11, 2018 at 10:28 AM A winter storm watch is in effect for most New England areas BOSTON — The Northeast is bracing for its third nor'easter in fewer than two weeks. The National Weather Service reports Sunday that a southern storm is expected to make its way up the coast, causing more snowfall and high winds. The Boston area is predicted to get 6-8 inches while Maine could see more than a foot of snow by Wednesday. New York could see 4-6 inches of snow. Philadelphia could see a few inches by Tuesday's morning commute. A winter storm watch is in effect for most New England areas. The risk for coastal flooding is expected to be lower than the last nor'easter, which flooded much of Cape Cod and seaside towns. People in the Northeast are still digging out from Wednesday's storm. Thousands remain without power.
