This satellite image made available by NOAA shows cloud cover over North America on Wednesday, Dec. 21, 2022 at 1:31 p.m. An arctic blast is bringing extreme cold, heavy snow and intense wind across much of the U.S. this week — just in time for the holidays. NEW YORK — — An arctic blast is bringing extreme cold, heavy snow and intense wind across much of the U.S. this week — just in time for the holidays.
Much of the U.S. will see below-average temperatures through the middle and end of the week, said Bob Oravec, lead forecaster for the National Weather Service in College Park, Maryland. On top of the frigid cold, the weather system is expected to send a snowstorm through the Midwest near the end of the week.
As for the snow, those in the Midwest will probably see a “heck of a storm,” though blizzard conditions aren’t expected to hit the East Coast, Maue said. Some spots around the Great Lakes may see upwards of a foot of snow by Friday, the National Weather Service predicted. The cold isn’t going to stick around for long. After the dramatic plunge that will keep temperatures low for about a week,"everything will snap back to normal,” Cohen said.
As this arctic air is pushed into the warmer, moister air ahead of it, the system can quickly develop into serious weather — including what's known as a"bomb cyclone," aThese severe weather events usually form over bodies of water, which have lots of warmth and moisture to feed the storm, Maue said. But with the huge amount of cold air coming through, we could see a rare bomb cyclone forming over land.
