FAIR AND COLD WEATHER CONTINUES OVER MUCH OF THE NATION EAST OF THE ROCKIES. VERY WET WEATHER OUT WEST. ENERGY FROM THESE JET STREAMS WILL HEAD EAST AND FORM INTO A LARGE EAST COAST STORM THURSDAY. IT WILL BRING AN ASSORTMENT OF WINTRY PRECIP. FROM MID ATLANTIC TO NORTHEAST. MANY PLACES FROM CENTRAL APPALACHIANS INTO THE NORTHEAST WILL GET OVER 1 FOOT OF SNOW...AND SOME AREAS MAY RECEIVE MORE THAN JUST SOME ICE...LEADING TO A SERIOUS ICE STORM.
