Forecasters Warn of Major Winter Storm Across U.S. This Weekend
6 days ago
The U.S. is bracing for a major winter storm this weekend as forecasters track an Arctic air mass moving south from Canada. The frigid air is expected to clash with rain, creating a mix of heavy snow, ice, and freezing rain across much of the nation.
The National Weather Service warns of “great swaths of heavy snow, sleet, and treacherous freezing rain” starting Friday in the central U.S. and shifting toward the East Coast through Sunday. Northern states will remain in a deep freeze from polar air, while southern states face the risk of ice accumulation and potential power outages.
Major airports in Dallas, Atlanta, Memphis, and Charlotte are expected to experience delays or cancellations as the storm moves eastward. Travelers are advised to monitor local forecasts and plan accordingly.
Meteorologists say the storm could be “widespread and potentially catastrophic” from Texas to the Carolinas, emphasizing caution for residents in the affected regions.
