Winter storm expected to move from the Central Plains to East Coast Sunday

The storm, which developed Saturday and brought snow to the Central Plains, is expected to bring rain, snow or a wintery mix to much of the eastern United States, according to CNN meteorologist Haley Brink.

It will move to the Ohio River Valley from the Central Plains by mid-day Sunday, then to the East Coast by the afternoon and into the overnight hours, Brink said.

By Monday afternoon, the storm will have moved entirely out of the Northeast, according to Brink said.

It will then move toward Nova Scotia, according to the National Weather Service.

Moving East

Kansas and Missouri are expecting 2 to 4 inches of snow, and the Ohio River Valley is predicted to get up to 2 inches, according to Brink.

New York, Philadelphia and Boston will see rain in the afternoon and a wintery mix by the evening, Brink said.

This season has seen unusually high amounts of snowfall in many regions. Caribou, Maine was just shy of its record snowfall from the winter season 2007-2008 as of Saturday.

Severe weather in the South

Across the Southeast, 14 million people are expected to see severe weather, Brink said.

NWS predicts scattered tornadoes and gusts of wind in most of Central Georgia and parts of North Georgia on Sunday.

Southern and eastern Alabama could also see tornadoes Sunday, Brink said.
