As the meteorologist predicted, the Northeast is currently experiencing a relentless wave of soggy weather. It's soggy, indeed. Two significant systems are making their way across the country, with one unleashing a blizzard that has been the topic of discussion for days. Despite the passing days, a little bit of snow still persists in certain areas, causing quite a spectacle for those in Kansas City and along I-70, where snow is still falling. Similarly, the city of St. Louis is dealing with heavy snowfall as well.
The entire system is in constant motion, with rain leading the front and colder air trailing behind. In contrast to the cold air, the eastern region is enjoying relatively warm temperatures. However, this is where the snow is currently making its appearance. Amidst this weather phenomenon, parts of North Georgia and northern Alabama can expect some snowfall, which is a rare occurrence in these areas that have not seen measurable snow in about two years. Even Tennessee, especially around Nashville, and the Appalachian Mountains, with their higher elevations, may witness a dusting of snow as well.
For many residents across the southern and southeastern United States, the sight of snowflakes falling from the sky has become a distant memory. Therefore, this unexpected snowfall provides an exciting change of scenery and a chance for people to experience a winter wonderland.
For travelers braving the weather today, some delays and slowdowns can be expected along the East Coast as the system gradually moves towards this region. But fear not! As we approach the new year, the outlook for the coming weekend seems promising, as most areas of the country are expected to enjoy clear skies. This bodes well for those planning to celebrate the start of 2023 without worrying too much about travel disruptions.
In conclusion, the Northeast continues to experience saturated conditions, while snowfall surprises regions unaccustomed to the white stuff. From North Georgia to northern Alabama, across Tennessee and towards Nashville, as well as the mountainous areas, snow is making its presence known. As for travelers, slight delays can be expected along the East Coast, but the weekend forecast brings optimism with near-clear conditions across the country. So, grab your warm coat, admire the snowfall in unlikely places, and prepare for a promising start to the new year.
