I wonder what David DuByne would say?

62 million people under threat of major winter storm
set to deliver season’s most significant blow yet

Sat January 4, 2025

A massive winter storm poised to unleash a barrage of heavy snow,
treacherous ice, rain, and severe thunderstorms across
a 1,300-mile swath of the United States will affect an estimated 62 million people
starting Saturday afternoon and continuing into Monday.

Snow and ice so far this winter in the eastern two-thirds of the country have been limited to northern states. But this storm will break that mold and bring treacherous conditions to millions from the Plains to the East Coast, including in areas less prone to winter weather.

This powerful weather system is set to batter at least a dozen states with a potent mix of snow, ice, and blizzard conditions, accompanied by winds gusting up to 40 mph, creating treacherous travel conditions and potential power outages across a vast region.

“For some, this could be the heaviest snowfall in over a decade,”
NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center warned.

Severe winter storm puts much of US on high alert

58 minutes ago

Tens of millions of Americans are bracing for a huge winter storm that could bring the heaviest snowfall and coldest temperatures in over a decade.

The storm, which started in the middle of the US, will move east in the next couple of days, the National Weather Service (NWS) said.

A state of emergency has been declared in the states of Kentucky and Virginia, and parts of the US unaccustomed to severe cold, including Mississippi and Florida, have been warned to expect treacherous conditions.

Forecasters say the extreme weather is being caused by the polar vortex,
an area of cold air that circulates around the Arctic.

"For some, this could be the heaviest snowfall in over a decade," the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said.

AccuWeather forecaster Dan DePodwin said: "This could lead to the coldest January for the US since 2011."

It's also risky if someone who is banned - most people - make a post there by mistake. It's a trap he's set.

The winter storm, which has already caused snowy and icy conditions in the Central Plains,

will create treacherous travel conditions and potential power outages across a vast region stretching from Kansas to the mid-Atlantic.

“For some, this could be the heaviest snowfall in over a decade,” NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center warned.

Major effects, including “considerable disruptions to daily life … dangerous or impossible driving conditions and widespread closures,” are expected from this storm through Monday in parts of the Central and Eastern US, according to the Winter Storm Severity Index.
