"The massive polar vortex sweeping across the US this week will only be the beginning of the country's bone-chilling plunge into winter, meteorologists warn. New forecasts have revealed that the Midwest and Northeast are currently in the first wave of an arctic 'outbreak' which will likely see more freezing cold air move south from Canada over the next three weeks."
"Meteorologists have predicted this Nor' easter will bring three to five inches at lower elevations, with higher spots like the Adirondacks, Green Mountains, and White Mountains receiving at least five to eight inches. The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued winter storm warnings and winter weather advisories throughout the Northeast and parts of the Midwest, from Maine to central Kentucky."
A massive polar vortex is driving an arctic outbreak across the Midwest and Northeast that will likely send more freezing air south from Canada over the next three weeks. Temperatures from Montana to Maine are forecast to be 10 to 15°F below historic averages for early to mid-December, with repeated chances for snow squalls. The episode will bring first significant snow to upstate New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, and the northern Mid-Atlantic, with 3–5 inches at lower elevations and 5–8 inches in higher terrain. Winter storm warnings and travel-impacting advisories stretch from Maine to central Kentucky. New Jersey declared a state of emergency and airports in New York and Washington began ground delays amid icy runway concerns.
