East Coast braces for triple storm threat

Back-to-back winter storms will make for a messy second half of January up and down the East Coast.

Transcript

00:00We've got several storms to be tracking several which will include an impact of

00:04the southeast. The first one impacting the southeast with areas of soaking rain

00:07and thunderstorms in the northeast, some areas of rain, but also some snow

00:11showers in the interior. The second storm starts to move in Sunday into Sunday

00:15night bringing the return of some snow from the mid-atlantic, possibly even up

00:18the I-95 corridor to send some slick travel to start the week or through

00:22travel through the holiday weekend. And storm number three, is there a potential

00:26for some highly disruptive snow and ice in the southern tier of the country?

00:29As we head through next week. We'll start with the first here, that's gonna

00:33set a coating to maybe an inch or so of snow, higher amounts in the higher

00:37elevations, but enough to cause some slippery travel. Travel could be

00:41impacted with thunderstorms and soaking rain across the southeast with this

00:44storm Friday night into Saturday evening. Then Sunday into Sunday night and then

00:48eventually Monday morning, the next storm starts to slide farther north with

00:51enough cold air in place for some more snow to be returning. And then the cold

00:55sticks around, so that's not gonna be melting all that much. Highs 15 to 25

00:59degrees below the historical average for a huge chunk of the country. And with

01:03this much cold air around, there's yet another potential for some snow and ice

01:07to return from Texas across parts of the Gulf Coast here. We'll leave it the

01:1270 forecast in New York City after rain and a bit of snow were much colder by

01:17next week.
