As one dangerous winter storm exits the East Coast, a new system is arriving in the West. With only 3 to 4 days of separation between nearly identical storms, areas that were recently battered by high winds, heavy rain, wind-driven snow, or strong thunderstorms will face another round of similar conditions. The new system will cross the central and southern Plains on Thursday into Friday, and the mid-South and Midwest on Friday into Saturday. The storm’s trailing cold front will sweep across the South on Friday and exit the Atlantic Coast by Saturday.
