Maps show where winter storm threatens to bring heavy snow, ice, brutal cold this weekend

Heavy snow, ice and brutal cold are expected to make this winter storm a potentially life-threatening weather event, stretching across two-thirds of the U.S.

Massive #snowstorm to bury areas from #OklahomaCity to #NewYorkCity, #Boston

In what is likely to be the biggest winter storms in years for such a broad area of the U.S., heavy snow is forecast from the eastern slopes of the Rockies to the coastal Northeast. Travel shutdowns are anticipated.

"Enough snow to shovel and plow is forecast to spread from New Mexico and Colorado on Friday to Massachusetts and Maine by Sunday, impacting over 200 million people. It could be the biggest snowstorm in years with a large area having the potential to receive 6 to 12 inches of snow, with accumulations reaching 24-30 inches in the hardest-hit areas.

Nearly 20 years ago in Marquette, Michigan, I was exploring Presque Isle Park when a heavy snowstorm rolled in. As I headed home, I spotted the Lee A. Tregurtha at Marquette’s Ore Dock, standing strong against the storm—a true symbol of Great Lakes resilience. 📷 Now available as wall art, puzzles, and more.
