The much-anticipated Arctic outbreak, influenced by a polar vortex, is expected to generate significant snowfall over the weekend, impacting travel and power services across many states.
The National Weather Service warns of treacherous travel conditions, particularly where ice accumulation exceeds a quarter-inch, which poses a risk of widespread power outages.
Following the storm, temperatures in the northern Plains and Upper Midwest may plunge below 0°F, with more than 234 million people facing temperatures at or below 32°F.
This Arctic outbreak is expected to deliver the coldest air in years for many, marking a stark contrast following several mild winters.
