Winter storm dumps snow on Plains, Midwest as it moves east
A winter storm that dumped several inches of snow in Denver on Wednesday before heading into the Plains and Midwest continues to march across the northern tier of the country Thursday. Snow is expected across parts of the Upper Midwest and northern Great Lakes throughout the day. While that region gets snow, most of the Northeast will get some decent rain on the warmer side of the storm, though the precipitation is expected to fall as a wintry mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain in portions of the interior Northeast and New England.
