#Arctic blast peaks late this week into the weekend across North Dakota, northern Minnesota, northern Wisconsin, and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, with morning lows dipping to -30°F or lower. Friday #Wind gusts near or above 20 mph push #WindChills to near -50°F. #Cold #Frigid

Monitoring #WinterStorm potential late this week through the weekend from the Southern Plains to the Mid-Atlantic. Uncertainty remains, but models support low pressure from Canada linking with another near the U.S./Mexico border, with #PolarAir positioned over the #North Central.

#Arctic blasts continue across the U.S. through the end of January, with the next batch of #frigid air already moving into the North Central. Another round sweeps from the North Central to the #Northeast late Thu. through this weekend, with another surge arriving early next week.

Monitoring the #EastCoast early Sunday morning through Sunday evening as #forecast confidence grows in a more aggressive #storm solution. A 1-4" snow swath is possible near the I-95 corridor, with locally higher amounts in southern New England. #Snow accumulates on all surfaces.

Back-to-back #Clippers will keep the #Snow flying across the Upper #Midwest and #GreatLakes through the weekend with a swath of 1-4" expected with lake enhancement pushing some totals higher locally. Wind gusts exceeding 30 mph will result in blowing and drifting at times.

#𝗘𝗡𝗘𝗥𝗚𝗬 𝗨𝗣𝗗𝗔𝗧𝗘 — Cold air has settled across the Eastern U.S., and the region will stay cooler through the rest of the month. Below-average temperatures will persist, keeping gas-weighted heating degree day demand above normal through January. #OOTT #NaturalGas

Active #Winter #Weather ahead from the Great Lakes to the interior #Northeast with light #Snow bringing around 1" or less through Thursday evening, then #LakeEffect snow boosts totals to 3-6" through midday Friday with locally upwards of 8" likely. Another #Storm follows Friday.

Recent model guidance shows low pressure staying well offshore late this weekend, interacting with a broad trough of #cold air sitting over the East. If it can pull moisture back into the #Southeast, we may see a band of #snow develop from the #Carolinas to northern #Florida.

During the second half of January, #cold air starts in the #East, then expands across the northern tier and down the #West Coast, while the #South trends warmer. Precipitation stays quieter and drier early, then turns #wetter from the Lower Mississippi Valley to #NewEngland.

#Cold air sticks around the eastern U.S. over the next 10 days, but the precip won’t. Most of the Lower 48 sees less than .5" of precip through the middle of next week, except the Pacific Northwest and interior Northeast. Tough for #drought areas, but #California is drought-free.

#Snow is limited across the northeastern quadrant of the United States over the next 10 days, outside of #LakeEffect. Late Wednesday into Thursday, areas downwind of Lake Michigan, especially northwest Indiana, could pick up 2-5"+, while areas outside of the band see very little.

Three more waves of #ArcticAir will hit the eastern U.S. through early next week, one later this week, another over the weekend, and a third early next week. The first two will spread subfreezing temps to the Gulf Coast, while the third may bring the #coldest air of the stretch.

#HeavyRain from the Gulf Coast to the #MidAtlantic through early Sunday morning could bring 1–4" totals, locally up to 5". #Rainfall rates topping 2" per hour may trigger flooding, with the Deep #South seeing the heaviest #thunderstorms. #Weather #Flooding #Rain #Storms

#𝗘𝗡𝗘𝗥𝗚𝗬 𝗨𝗣𝗗𝗔𝗧𝗘 — Mild weather continues across the Midwest for now, but by mid-January, arctic air will push temps below normal. The cold lingers into the latter half of the month, boosting energy demand for gas-weighted heating degree days. #OOTT #NaturalGas

Two storm systems will impact the North Central into the weekend. .5–2" of #snow is expected Thu. AM–Fri. AM. A second system Fri. night–Sun. AM, tracking farther south and east, strengthens near the #GreatLakes, bringing 1–3", locally upwards of 4", with gusts over 40 mph.

A #JanuaryThaw sweeping from the #Plains to the #East Coast will bring unseasonable #warmth. Temperatures will run 20° to 30° F above normal, locally up to 40°, pushing highs into the 50s, 60s, and even low 70s through Friday before #colder air returns heading into the weekend.

𝙇𝙊𝙉𝙂 𝙍𝘼𝙉𝙂𝙀 𝙊𝙐𝙏𝙇𝙊𝙊𝙆 - Dry conditions dominate much of the country, with near or below normal precipitation prevailing. The parts of the West Coast and Northern Rockies consistently stand out as one of the driest areas during this period. #Weather #Cold #Heat #Dry

An #AtmosphericRiver will bring 1–3" of precipitation to western #Washington and #Oregon through daybreak Friday, leading to a renewed threat of #flooding, #mudslides, and #landslides. In the higher elevations of the #Cascades, this will fall as #snow with upwards of 2' possible.

#WintryMix moves into the #Midwest tonight into Tuesday. An area stretching from southern #Minnesota through #Wisconsin into southern #Michigan will see under .50" of #snow, under .10" of sleet, and under .10" of ice. However, around the Twin Cities, over .10" of ice is possible.

Two fast-moving systems will keep snow chances going from the northern Great Lakes through southeastern Canada and into northern New England. While the snowfall focus will shift between the two systems, each is expected to produce a 1-3" swath of snow, with locally upwards of 4".
