Two more storm systems are set to impact the northern United States this week, following severe weather in the Northeast. The first system is expected to bring snow to the Plains and heavy rain to the south on Monday, with Kansas likely to see the heaviest snowfall. On Tuesday, the storm will move east, affecting the Appalachian, mid-Atlantic regions, and extending into the Northeast with Virginia, D.C., Maryland, and Delaware anticipated to receive 3-6 inches of snow.
The next storm system is forecasted to bring widespread rain and snow to the Plains and Midwest on Wednesday before moving into the Northeast on Wednesday night and Thursday. Arctic air will lead to temperatures up to 10-40 degrees below average in the Plains and Rockies, with Montana and the Dakotas facing temperatures below zero and wind chills as low as minus 40 degrees.
The National Weather Service is celebrating its 155th birthday, and over 230 flights in the Northeast have been canceled due to the storms. Winter alerts have been lifted in the region, but lingering snow showers may still occur on Sunday. NOAA forecasts colder than usual temperatures across the northern United States over the next one to two weeks, with below-normal temperatures expected to continue through the third week of February. Residents in these areas are advised to prepare for the continued cold weather.
