A winter storm is impacting the Midwest to the Northeast, bringing intense snow squalls and strong winds that could lead to power outages and hazardous travel conditions. Snow squalls, characterized by brief but heavy snowfall and strong winds, pose significant dangers for drivers. Wind gusts of 30 to 50 mph are expected, particularly affecting the Appalachians and mid-Atlantic regions. While the storm will deliver substantial snowfall in elevated areas, lower elevations may see lighter accumulations.
