Snow Squalls, Strong Winds, and Winter Storms Sweep Across Northeast

A series of fast-moving storm systems are bringing hazardous snow squalls, high winds, and freezing temperatures to the Northeast and Great Lakes regions this week.

The National Weather Service has issued snow squall warnings and winter weather advisories across the Northeast, including New York, Pennsylvania, and New England states, warning of hazardous travel conditions and sudden whiteouts.
Snowfall totals are expected to range from 1 to 3 inches in many areas, with localized higher amounts of up to 6 inches in elevated regions like the Berkshires and northern Vermont.
Wind gusts of up to 50 mph are forecast in parts of the Northeast, potentially causing blowing snow, reduced visibility, and flash freezing on roadways.
A second Arctic cold front is expected to bring additional snow squalls and freezing temperatures to the region through Wednesday, with subzero wind chills predicted for northern New England by Thursday morning.
Meteorologists caution drivers to avoid travel during snow squalls and to stay updated on weather alerts as conditions may change rapidly.
