The National Weather Service warned Tuesday there will be “widespread” hazards from the western United States to the Great Lakes region starting Tuesday.
“Several weather systems will stretch impacts from Coast to Coast,” said a Tuesday afternoon bulletin issued by the National Weather Service (NWS), which said there will be “widespread hazardous travel” conditions. “Heavy snow to low elevations in the West will extend across the Intermountain West to the Great Lakes” along with “strong thunderstorms and damaging winds in the Mid-Atlantic,” according to the agency.
