One of the Biggest Storms in Years Is Near

Winter storm alerts stretched 2,000 miles from the Southwest to the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast early Thursday, a sure sign that a major storm would soon strike.

Snow and ice will start on Friday across the Rockies and Plains, push into the South, Midwest and Appalachians on Saturday, then reach the East Coast on Sunday. The storm will bring dangerous travel conditions and probably road closures.

A wide area of 10 to 20 inches of snow is expected from the Southwest to New England, while a significant ice storm will unfold in parts of the southern Plains, Mid-South, Appalachians, Southeast and southern Mid-Atlantic.
