The Northeast will feel frigid Saturday night as wind chills plunge to 2 and 5 below zero in New York City and Boston, respectively.
Cold weather is even heading south to Florida with temperatures dipping into the upper 20s by early Sunday. Wind chill alerts have been posted for cities including Miami, Naples and West Palm Beach. Freeze warnings were in effect for much of Florida Saturday night.
Coastal concerns
There are coastal concerns about storm surge and tidal influence especially along the coastal towns in Suffolk County, New York, which could see 4- to 8-foot-high waves during high tide Saturday night and into Sunday.
Boston may also get battered with largest wave swells at 15 to 20 feet.
Beach erosion, localized flooding and property damage are all possible in these areas with the storm and high tides.
Some coastal communities in Massachusetts are experiencing minor to moderate flooding, Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito told reporters Saturday. Nantucket saw high floodwater, with \"significant flooding\" downtown, officials warned.

However, there is one silver lining to this winter storm: The storm system remained easterly, meaning less heavy snow and weather-related snarls for states west of I-95.
