Someone at work told me he had heard that on the radio but it is the bosses 12 year old son so I don't know how accurate it was. I live and work in Maryland.

I work as a private meteorologist and forecaster. (Also from Maryland) What I can tell you right now is that some models are saying yes, while others are saying no. Is the potential there? Absolutely. Winter storms are very difficult to forecast (Nor"easters especially) because they usually do not form until a day or two prior to impacting the Northeast. If I had to put money on it right now, I would say that is would likely be a cold rain event for the Maryland area, with interior regions in New England having the best shot for snow. The problem is that we are really lacking in sufficient cold air supply to get that rain to change over to snow, but there is still plenty of time between now and mid-week next week (Dec 17-19 is what most models are pointing to, so several days before Christmas) to have the right ingredients come together.
