Extreme winter storms expected across US from California to Maine
1h ago
Twenty-four states, from California to Maine, are on alert for extreme cold, freezing rain, heavy snow and avalanche danger on Tuesday.
Western storms, which brought snow to parts of California and the West are headed east, bringing an icy mix, severe weather and a tornado threat to the South and Northeast.
A few more storms will move through the West over the next few days, bringing more heavy snow for the mountains where an avalanche warning has been issued from California to Colorado. Locally, there could be an additional 2 to 4 inches of snow.
In southern California, 2 to 3 additional inches of rain are possible, which could cause minor flooding.
In the Northeast, as one storm move out, another will move in, with more icy roads forecast Tuesday night into Wednesday morning.

Blizzard conditions raged the Midwest on Monday from the Dakotas into Minnesota, where winds gusted near 50 miles per hour and almost 2 feet of snow fell.
Between 3 to 6 inches of snow are expected in the Midwest, with up to 4 inches possible in the Northeast over the next few days.
From Chicago to Green Bay, Wisconsin, and the Twin Cities, a winter weather advisory has been issued where a mix of freezing rain and snow is expected on Tuesday. Roads could become very slick.
In the South, Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee are under a threat for severe thunderstorms with damaging winds and a few tornadoes on Wednesday.
The northern half of the country is expecting an arctic outbreak, with some of the coldest arctic air so far this season. The air will move from the northern Rockies into the Upper Midwest.
Wind chills in parts of Montana and the Dakotas have dropped close to 30 to 50 degrees below zero. This air mass will move east into the western Great Lakes and the upper Midwest. The actual temperature is forecast to be well below zero for places like Minneapolis.
As the new year begins, afternoon temperatures will be well below zero in Fargo, North Dakota, and minus 2 in Minneapolis. Temperatures in Denver and Kansas City, Missouri, will also be below freezing.

Record Snowfall Blankets West Coast
TUESDAY, DEC 28, 2021 - 02:50 PM
Climate change warrior Greta Thunberg must be speechless or at least ignoring the "science" as the University of California, Berkeley's Sierra Snow Laboratory reported the snowiest December on record.
UC Berkeley's snow lab, located near Donner Pass in the northern Sierra Nevada, recorded the snowiest December at 193.7 inches – over 16 feet, smashing the old December record of 179 inches set back in 1970.
As much as 10 feet of snow has fallen in parts of the Sierra Nevada since last Wednesday.
The latest GFS snow model shows the incredible amount of snow dumped across Sierra Nevadas. There is even more snow slated for next week.
The Sierra Nevada snowpack is a critical source of water for California reservoirs. Considering much of the state is in a severe drought. The above-average snowpack is a promising sign for next year.
Here are some of the incredible images of the feet of snow from the Sierra Nevada area (pictures provided by LA Times):
California Highway Patrol cruiser driving through Donner Summit on Dec. 25.
The UC Berkeley Sierra Snow Lab has feet of snow.
Vehicles are buried under the feet of snow at Tahoe Donner ski resort.
What happens next could be a polar chill that sweeps across the US Lower 48. We noted this could happen as early as Dec. 9.
US natural gas futures jumped on Monday as storms brought snowfall to parts of the US, and colder outlooks were seen for early January.
Greta Thunberg and her climate gang of children are seemingly ignoring record snowfall in California while continuing to tell the world we're all going to burn if we don't invest in green energy.

Trudged the 3 blocks to the mailbox around the corner this afternoon to mail my rent check.
Managed to stay upright the entire time despite avoiding the work involved in digging my
Yak-trax 
out of the closet and applying them to my boot bottoms. Boy is my butt sore from all of that half-stepping on the packed snow and ice!
Not much plowing was done in the parking lots. A plow came by yesterday to push the snow off the storm drain so the melt water has somewhere to go, but the road through my complex is still thickly packed with snow.
Snow is starting to melt off the south side of my car just in time for another snowstorm tomorrow. Will be glad to see the snow melt completely this weekend when it warms up to above freezing. I'm not even attempting to drive anywhere even though I have a few errands to run and this week off work.

The end is in sight. It is snowing right now, for 3 or so hours. It will stay at or below freezing all of New Year's eve, with lows around 22 F. It will do the same New Year's Day until it finally warms up Sunday morning.
We will then have temps in the high 40's F until January 14th.
It will be 50 F on Thursday.
The normal temp pattern resumes. Thursday will have a high of 50 F and a low of 46. Several days will have highs of 45 with rain and 41 F
I heard at least one transient froze to death but I don't listen to local media, tv or radio anymore.
Massive utility bills, much flooding damage and an unknown number of dead transients from hypothermia are the residue.
It will be sunny and cold the next 48 hours.

The pipes will refreeze again, since it will get down to 22 F at 5pm today and then stay frozen till Sunday/ Monday. It will be a mess since the heavy rain will combine with the snow melt.
J F & P is on Johnson Creek and it ALWAYS floods when heavy rain and snow melt combine.
New Year's Eve will be 22 F with frozen ice everywhere- roads, sidewalks, etc.
I'm staying in my nice warm apartment.
I visited Paris, France on New Year's Eve of 1973. Never did anything else on New Year's Eve for the last 50 years.

Likely drunken transients dead from hypothermia, combined with car wrecks from ice on the roads. Hell, not sure if that bitch brown shut everything down.

Yep Sunday afternoon gives us a wind advisory. Which means all the soggy trees, in the soggy ground, may fall over and some
lose power: 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 40 mph?
In addition 6 pm tonight starts the flood watch. Not a warning but a FLOOD WATCH.
Sheesh, at least the highs will be 40 F plus.
Unless the downtown electric vaults flood I will be okay.
Not much of an issue for me this last two seek "climate event."
I wonder how many transients etc died mot much on the media. Can't make the liberals look bad. The tents stayed up in the park blocks.

Interstate 84 is closed in both directions near Troutdale and Hood River, along with a closure between Pendleton and Baker City due to blizzard-like conditions. Link I-84 closed due to ‘extreme winter weather’
It's just hitting here now.
Nearly a 50 mile stretch is closed from milepost 17 to milepost 64.
