After a nor’easter barrels up the East Coast of the US this weekend, the active weather pattern will bring another powerful storm to the eastern half of the U.S. and create a variety of nasty weather.
According to the FOX Forecast Center, snow, flooding rain, damaging wind and severe weather are all in the forecast as the storm moves from the central US to the Great Lakes.

bad weather in the winter! ... Who wooda thunkit!
In the last few years, there was so much snow, the Kalifornia/Nevada mountain ski resorts were open in June.
We got just a trace of rain from the first one, but may get a couple of inches on Tuesday. I need it. Well pump is out, I'm living on harvested rainwater until it gets replaced. My good fortune is that I have a rainwater harvesting system, built 10 years ago because the well water is very hard. Usually shut down in winter because the primary catchment tanks freeze, but it's been warm enough the last 10 days or so that I've been able to use it.
Translation: “It’s cold and blowing snow outside. BE VERY AFRAID!”
I just can’t believe this weather, I man it’s only winter! /s
You mean it’s going to snow in winter? For real? Huh, I’m gobsmacked!
Too true.
Been there, done that.
Still there is heat coming up from the lake, and that is what produces the snow as the cold air forces the moisture out.
Imagine that, a Winter Storm...........in Winter!
Sounds like an article from the Globe. All Hype and no real facts.
My son in law spent the night at the Boston Garden……along with many others.

Baltimore got a microscope dusting of snow, only around the trunks of trees, not even the whole lawn, and then it rained hard most of the day. I just rolled over and went back to sleep. :)
Love how northeasters stall over Boston.
They deserve it.
Naming winter storms has to be the most sissy silly thing around.
The important storms. 77. The 98 ice storm. ... they stand out on their own. No need to dramatize every farther in the wind.
Fart in the wind
Global warming/cooling cycle.
There’s just too much carbon, it is killing the planet!
We got snow in Miami in 1977
The only reason I can think of for naming winter storms is to stir up the drama and get tv ratings. We rode through a storm in S. New Jersey in 1993. 70 mph wind with snow. All transportation shut down. We lost power, but made do.
In February 1975 it snowed 57” overnight. It was amazing.
That’s an impressive snowfall rate.
When we lived in the Lake Ontario snowbelt region, maybe once every couple years, it would snow 5”/hour.
You could literally see it accumulating.
The worst snow I have seen was the Blizzard of ‘77 in Buffalo. The houses in our neighborhood were a driveway and about 4 feet to the next house, perhaps 25 feet tops. We could not see the house next door.
That was an amazing storm…
