A potent winter storm is expected to bring a significant swath of wintry weather across the central and eastern US this weekend and into early next week.
The National Weather Service’s Weather Prediction Center (WPC) said while confidence in the storm is increasing, there remains uncertainty in its timing and track as it moves east.
Impacts are set to begin Friday in the northern Plains, followed by the central Plains, Ohio and Tennessee valleys and mid-Atlantic states, with heavy snow, sleet and freezing rain expected in various locations.
A Winter Storm Watch is in effect from Saturday afternoon through Sunday afternoon for portions of central and south-central Kansas, with the potential for a mix of freezing drizzle, freezing rain, sleet and snow.

“It’s Friday and we live in the Northern Plains. And there is no storm at all in the forecast. And not in the near future.”
Agreed. I’m in the Minneapolis-St Paul metro area and we are not looking at any snow this weekend. It is pretty darn cold today though.
Will it be as bad as the High Plains in 1962? or March 1968? How about Fall and Winter of 1976-1977? Used as proof we were entering THE COMING ICE AGE!
Then there was the two feet I measured in 2011 during the Glo-Bull Warming scam. 4 inches of ICE a couple of years earlier.
4 inches snow expected here in western nc...snowing now
I remember the blizzards in Fargo, ND in both 1962 and 1968.
Minimum of 3 feet of snow and winds blowing so hard you can’t see 5 feet in front of you. That is a real blizzard. Forget about the technical definition.
Yeah. This is it. The end.
If you have a ‘’bucket list’’ it’s probably a good time to get to doing it.
