Major Winter Storm to Impact the U.S.: Heavy Snow, Ice, and Extreme Temperature Swings

A powerful weather system is set to bring heavy snowfall, freezing rain, and extreme cold to parts of the U.S., while some areas will experience record-breaking warmth. Whether you’re in the weather Pacific Northwest, weather Rockies, weather Midwest, or weather Northeast, this forecast will help you prepare for what’s coming.

Heavy Snow & Rain for the Weather Pacific Northwest and Weather Northern Rockies

The weather Pacific Northwest and weather Northern Rockies are in for another round of intense weather conditions. A deep-layer low-pressure system is bringing steady moisture, leading to heavy snowfall and rain across several weather states.

If you’re in the weather Cascades (weather Washington, weather Oregon, weather Northern California), weather Sawtooth Mountains (weather Idaho), weather Bitterroot Mountains (weather Idaho & weather Montana), or weather Tetons (weather Wyoming), expect an additional 6 to 12 inches of snow through tonight. Weather travel conditions will be hazardous, so plan accordingly.

But the biggest weather story is the new weather storm system approaching weather California on Thursday. This system will deliver an atmospheric river event, which means a significant amount of weather Pacific moisture will push inland.

Here’s what to expect:

  • Heavy weather rain along the weather coast and in the weather Central Valley, with a risk of localized weather flooding.
  • Weather Sierra Nevada mountains could see 1 to 3 feet of snow through Friday morning, creating dangerous weather road conditions.
  • Weather Northern Rockies will get another 1 to 2+ feet of snow as the system moves inland.

This weather storm will not only bring massive snowfall but will also lead to hazardous weather travel across the weather western U.S.

Winter Weather Storm Hits the Weather Midwest, Weather Great Lakes, and Weather Northeast

A separate weather winter storm is heading for the weather Midwest, weather Great Lakes, and weather Northeast from late Wednesday into Thursday. This system will bring weather snow, sleet, and freezing rain, making weather travel dangerous and increasing the risk of weather power outages.

Here’s a breakdown of what different weather regions can expect:

  • Weather Upper Midwest & weather Michigan’s U.P. – Heavy snowfall with several inches of accumulation expected.
  • Interior weather Northeast (weather New York, weather New England) – More weather snow, especially in weather central and weather northern areas.
  • Weather Ohio Valley & weather Mid-Atlantic – A mix of weather sleet and freezing rain, with up to 0.25 inches of ice, creating dangerous weather road conditions.

The combination of weather ice and strong weather winds could lead to scattered weather power outages and weather tree damage, so weather residents should be prepared for potential disruptions.

Extreme Cold in the Weather North, Record Warmth in the Weather South

Temperatures will be wildly different across the weather U.S., with weather frigid conditions in the weather north and unseasonably warm weather in the weather south.

  • Weather Northern Plains & weather Pacific Northwest – Expect below-normal weather temperatures, with highs struggling to rise above zero in weather Montana.
  • Weather Southern U.S. (weather Four Corners to the weather Gulf Coast) – A major weather warm-up is on the way, with highs reaching the 80s20 to 30 degrees above normal!

It’s a classic weather winter contrast: while some areas are experiencing weather bitter cold and heavy snow, others will feel like weather spring has arrived early.

Final Thoughts: What to Expect This Weather Week

This weather week’s conditions will be a tale of two extremes—brutal weather winter conditions in the weather West, weather Midwest, and weather Northeast, and record-breaking warmth in the weather South.

To sum it up:
Heavy weather snow and rain for the weather Pacific Northwest and weather Rockies
A powerful winter weather storm bringing weather snow, weather ice, and dangerous weather travel to the weather Midwest & weather Northeast
Extreme cold in the weather Northern Plains and summer-like warmth in the weather Southern U.S.
