Powerful Storm Grinds Toward the East Coast

An outbreak of dangerous severe weather is tearing through the northeast Gulf Coast states this evening. As the intense thunderstorms shift eastward tonight, the storm igniting the severe weather will begin to strengthen into a major nor'easter, which will slam the Northeast with heavy weighing and accumulating snow, flooding rain, high winds and potentially beach-altering erosion beginning.

Our Severe Weather Center's page displays all the watches and warnings related to the potent storm set to ignite severe weather over the South before becoming a major nor'easter off the Northeast coast Sunday.

While the Midwest Regional News story states that storm's snow that develops around the southern Great lakes will not be nearly as heavy as what fell Friday, the storm will be just as potent as it was Friday in terms of severe weather elsewhere. The Southwest Regional News story recaps Friday's intense thunderstorms and tornadoes, which the South Regional News story states that after hammering Alabama and Georgia the thunderstorms will move on to the coastal Southeast tonight into Sunday morning.
