Wintry Weather Brings Snow and Cold to Eastern United States
A widespread cold snap is set to impact the eastern half of the United States, bringing the lowest temperatures of the season so far. According to AccuWeather meteorologist Alex Sosnowski, temperatures will drop significantly across states east of the Mississippi River, with snow expected in higher elevations and Great Lakes snow belts. Areas such as Elkins, West Virginia; Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania; and Saranac Lake, New York could see a slushy coating to a few inches of wet snow. The Green and White Mountains of Vermont and New Hampshire may receive 1-3 inches, while the Adirondacks and Catskills in New York could see up to 6 inches. The cold front will extend as far south as Florida, with frost and freeze conditions expected in parts of the Southeast by Saturday morning.
