Two storm systems are expected to hit the northern United States in succession this week, with the first system starting from the Plains on Monday, bringing snow to the north and heavy rains to the south. The heaviest snowfall is expected in Kansas with potential amounts of 2 to 5 inches. The storm is expected to expand east on Tuesday, affecting the Appalachian and mid-Atlantic regions, as well as extending into the Northeast. The next storm system will follow on Wednesday, bringing widespread rain and snow to the Plains and Midwest before moving into the Northeast by Thursday. Arctic air will also bring temperatures up to 40 degrees below average across the Plains and Rockies, with temperatures staying below zero in Montana and the Dakotas.
The National Weather Service is celebrating its 155th birthday as severe weather hits the Northeast, leading to over 230 flight cancellations. Winter alerts have been dropped in the region as the snow starts to taper off. However, forecasts predict that temperatures will remain colder than usual across the northern United States over the next one to two weeks. Residents may still see lingering snow showers throughout Sunday. Overall, the coming week will bring continued cold temperatures and the potential for record lows in certain cities in the northern United States.
