Winter Storm Fern 2026: These 2 weather maps track when snow and ice storms are forecast to hit states this weekend
"As Fast Company previously reported, the nor'easter is expected to affect as many as 230 million Americans as it moves from the Southwest to the Mid-Atlantic states, then continues eastward toward New England. The storm's progression over 72 hours is expected to dump snow and ice on significant portions of the country, with major cities including St. Louis, Chicago, Memphis, Nashville, Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. expected to receive significant accumulation."
"The severity of Winter Storm Fern has led many states to already declare emergencies before the bad weather has even hit. Residents across the country have been stocking up on food for days, as well as buying winter storm supplies like shovels and rock salt. Airlines are also warning travelers to expect delays and cancellations. Given the potential impact, many U.S. carriers have already said they will waive change fees or fare differences if travelers want to change their travel plans ahead of time."
Winter Storm Fern is expected to begin today and persist through at least Monday, moving from the Southwest northeastward across the country. The nor'easter could affect as many as 230 million Americans over a 72-hour period, bringing heavy snow and ice to major cities including St. Louis, Chicago, Memphis, Nashville, Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. Several states have declared emergencies in anticipation. Residents are stocking up on food and winter supplies such as shovels and rock salt. Airlines warn of delays and cancellations, and many carriers will waive change fees or fare differences. NOAA provides maps showing the storm's projected path.
