A "potentially historic" winter storm will slam the north-central USA over the next few days with up to 2 feet of snow possible in some areas.
Snow will accumulate from eastern Washington and Montana to Colorado, the Dakotas, Minnesota and northern Wisconsin, the Weather Channel said. Record low temperatures are also possible Thursday and Friday across the western USA.
The system will produce severe storms and heavy rain Thursday in the southern Plains and critical-to-extreme fire weather threats from the central and southern Rockies to California, the National Weather Service said.
The size and intensity of this snowstorm are unheard of for October, according to AccuWeather.
[...] A slew of winter storm warnings, watches and freeze warnings were in effect across parts of seven states as the storm ramped up Wednesday, AccuWeather said.
[...] The storm will have two parts, the first of which is targeting the northern and central Rockies and High Plains on Wednesday into Thursday. The second part will bring snow to the eastern and central portions of the Dakotas and western Minnesota by week's end.
"Near-blizzard to full-fledged blizzard conditions are possible across portions of central North Dakota Friday afternoon into Saturday morning," the weather service in Bismarck said. "Expect high impacts and dangerous to impossible travel conditions."
The weather service called it a "potentially historic October winter storm."
Meanwhile, locations in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, India, and Australia (among others) reported temperatures well over 100°F (38 C)!

Yes, but as we've seen that only entrenches the ignorant into feelings of martyrdom and they double down on the stupid. If we ignore his childish rantings maybe he'll get bored enough to actually pay attention to reality when parroting Fox gets him nowhere.

I've explained to you children that I don't watch Fox. I don't even watch television, unless I go to a restaurant with a television turned on. Odd, that. Why DO so many restaurants have televisions playing? Are they trying to copy the "gentleman's clubs"? Copy Hooters? Are CNN and Fox paying these restaurants to keep the propaganda playing for the customers?
