As another storm system comes in across the Great Lakes and Northeast regions, precipitation will be significant for many Americans in the days leading up to Christmas, including rain and snow.
The first day of winter, Saturday, brought snow to those in the Northeast, and more snow is predicted to fall between Monday and Tuesday. On Monday morning, a storm system began to crawl eastward from Minnesota to Michigan, advancing on the Great Lakes region until Tuesday night.
The West Coast, where temperatures are marginally above normal and snowfall is minimal, has already been affected by the system. Later this week, showers are predicted for Northern California and Washington, with the possibility of snowfall in the nearby mountain ranges.
However, before Christmas Eve, the inner Northeast, Michigan, and Wisconsin are predicted to receive two to six inches of snow. However, Boston and New York City are unlikely to see significant snowfall.
Since many places will witness melting snow blankets by Wednesday, there is currently no expectation for a white Christmas either.
Holiday travel is still likely to be impacted by the storms, particularly in the I-95 corridor that connects Maine and Florida.
across fact, Sunday’s temperatures across the Plains and West are at least 30 degrees above normal, setting new records for this time of year. Over the course of the week, the warmth is predicted to expand, and by Friday, temperatures in the contiguous United States should be high or above normal.
