The heaviest snow is occurring along a cold front stretching from the Great Lakes to Oklahoma. Delays at Milwaukee and Chicago O'Hare are increasing, and both snow and wind will become more intense through Thursday evening.
Farther south, a few inches of snow will accumulate across the Tennessee and Ohio valleys. Areas with even just a few inches of snow from the Plains to the Midwest will experience dangerous and hazardous travel conditions as wind gusts blow the snow and cause whiteout conditions.
Make sure you plan ahead for potential power outages during the life-threatening conditions that are expected to accompany the winter storm.
