Areas of moderate to heavy snow and strong winds will continue to
impact the Great Lakes region through tonight and Saturday as low
pressure strengthens further over southwest Quebec. The strong
winds and Arctic air surging over the Great Lakes will result in
extremely heavy snowfall totals by the end of the weekend with as
much as 2 to 4 feet snow expected over the favored snow belts
downwind of the lakes. Blizzard conditions are expected to persist
around portions of the Upper Midwest and the Great Lakes region,
but conditions should improve by Sunday as the winds begin to
subside. Arctic air will be in place across much of the central
and eastern U.S. this holiday weekend with temperatures as much as
20 to 30 degrees below average, including overnight lows that will
be below zero for many areas of the Midwest, and in the single
digits and teens elsewhere across portions of the southern and
eastern U.S. Please consult WPC's latest winter weather Key
Messages for updates on the progression this blizzard and the
Arctic blast impacting the country.
