A major winter storm is set to sweep across much of the nation’s middle section this weekend into early next week, bringing a swath of hazardous snow and ice.
Winter Storm Warnings now cover millions, while Ice Storm Warnings warn of accretions reaching potentially destructive thicknesses of over a half inch. That could lead to widespread power outages and extended travel headaches as power lines, trees and roads become coated in ice.
The winter weather is expected to continue east into the mid-Atlantic states by Monday, bringing perhaps some of the heaviest snows in three years.
