USASaturday, January 4, 2025

Get ready for a rough weekend! A big winter storm is about to hit two-thirds of the United States, from Kansas to Maryland. You might see some light snow in the Northeast on Friday, but the real action starts on Saturday. The storm will bring heavy snow, ice, and even thunderstorms from the Rocky Mountains to the East Coast. Cities like St. Louis, Indianapolis, and Cincinnati could get the worst of it, with up to 12 inches of snow and . 25 to 5 inches of ice. That could mean power outages and dangerous travel. Blizzard conditions are expected by Sunday morning.

Further south, severe storms could affect seven million people from Texas to Tennessee on Sunday. Icy conditions are likely in the Ohio Valley and central Appalachians. Monday might be messy for Pittsburgh, Richmond, Washington D. C. , Baltimore, and Philadelphia, with the heaviest snowfall south of New York City. After the storm, it's going to get really cold, with temperatures well below average from the northern Plains to the Southeast.
