Overview
- Snow is tapering across much of the Northeast this morning after a light-to-moderate event, with coastal New England and immediate lakefronts seeing higher totals.
- The National Weather Service warns of dangerous cold with wind chills as low as 15 to 25 below zero in parts of the Great Lakes and Midwest and sub-zero values extending into the Northeast.
- Gusty winds will produce blowing snow and hazardous travel, with reported gusts near 50 mph in parts of Minnesota and 30–45 mph in sections of Pennsylvania and Michigan creating whiteout potential.
- Lake-effect snow remains a concern along the southern Lake Erie shore, where Northeast Ohio forecasters highlight a 3–6 inch zone with a higher-end 6+ inch outcome possible if bands lock in along the immediate coastline.
- Weekend storms snarled travel across the eastern U.S., with FlightAware logging thousands of delays and hundreds of cancellations, and officials caution that recurring clippers could bring additional light snow midweek and into next weekend.
