Winter storm continues across North Carolina and the southern Mid-Atlantic through this evening ... ...Record cold temperatures will settle south toward the Gulf Coast through the next couple of days while dangerously cold wind chills over the northern Plains into Friday... ...Another round of mountain snow and lower elevation rain moving into the Pacific Northwest today will spread into the northern and central Rockies Thursday into Friday... Moderate snowfall is ongoing this afternoon across North Carolina and the southern Mid-Atlantic and is expected to fall though Thursday morning for these regions, with accumulations of 6-10 inches of snow possible. Additionally, areas of sleet/freezing rain are also expected just to the south of the swath of snowfall across the coastal plains of North Carolina this afternoon into early this evening. Travel will be difficult in icy areas and in areas of low visibility. Other winter weather concerns across the east include a chance for light snow showers Thursday across the Mid-Atlantic and Appalachians as an upper low moves across the area. Light snowfall accumulations have a low probability across these regions. Lake effect snowfall may also be ongoing, especially downwind of Lake Michigan for tomorrow. A cold front will sweep through Florida this afternoon and bring the chance of showers and thunderstorms. More importantly, Florida will join the millions of people experiencing this Arctic air outbreak. High temperatures will drop from the 70s and 80s to the 50s and 60s and low temperatures in the 30s as far south as Orlando by later this week. The rest of the country should be in the peak of the Arctic air outbreak. High temperatures will slowly modify by the end of the week, but will remain below average with temperatures in the teens, twenties, and thirties across the Plains, Midwest, and eastern U.S.. Wind chills will be hazardously cold. Temperatures will feel below zero in the southern Plains, and the northern Plains may feel as cold as -20 to -30 in the northern Plains for at least the next day or two with the influence of the Arctic high pressure. Be sure to dress in layers including a hat, face mask, and gloves if you must go outside! Another round of unsettled weather of rain and wind is approaching the Pacific Northwest as an area of low pressure and attendant cold front sweep southeastward. A period of moderate to locally heavy rain near the coast is ongoing today, and some heavy snow is expected across the Cascades and Northern Rockies Thursday. The cold front is progged to pass southward across the West toward the Four Corners region, but the front will be relatively weak and temperatures should remain around 5-10 degrees above average, as well as mostly dry, for the Southwest.…
