A weekend nor’easter is set to bring heavy rain, snow and ice to a large swath of the eastern U.S. The storm has already dumped snow and rain across the South. Now, it is targeting North Carolina and Virginia with icy weather before bringing heavy snow and rain from West Virginia to Maine.
The jet stream will keep sending storms one after another to the West Coast of the U.S. during the next several days. The result will be feet of snow in the mountains and several inches of rain along the coast from Washington state to northern California.
The FOX Forecast Center is already tracking another powerful storm that will bring impacts to the eastern half of the U.S. next week. Heavy snow is possible in the northern Plains and Midwest, while flooding is possible from the Southeast to the Northeast. Severe weather also appears likely from Texas to North Carolina and Florida.
FOX Weather Meteorologist Britta Merwin explains what a nor’easter is and what it can do.
