A fast-moving winter storm system has swept across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, bringing a mix of weather conditions. In the Northeast, particularly in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and parts of New York City, heavy snowfall was reported with accumulations reaching up to 14 inches in some areas and snowfall rates of 1-3 inches per hour. The storm, which moved through from Friday into early Saturday morning, also brought snow to parts of the Midwest. In contrast, areas like Denver experienced lighter snow events, with total accumulations of 2-5 inches. The weather system has led to warnings of slick roads, reduced visibility due to snow squalls, and 60+ mph gusts in several regions. Meanwhile, the Southwest and parts of the South are experiencing warmer, dry weather with temperatures expected to rise into the 80s by mid-week. The varied weather conditions across the country have impacted travel, outdoor activities, and preparations for the upcoming week.

Have you ever been in a snow squall? These brief bursts of intense snow can create major travel impacts. Snowfall rates can reach 1-2 inches per hour, reducing visibility and quickly making roads slick. This is what Syracuse looked like in a snow squall earlier. #NYwx https://t.co/YzxhGk89aP
Overnight snowfall brought nearly 10 inches to parts of NYC, only 2 to others https://t.co/2ZXFwIxIbv https://t.co/NqH35tlfQD

BUNDLE UP TONIGHT! It's going to be COLD. Windchills fall into the teens & low 20s. Make sure to bring your pets inside and if you're out and about layer up. The biting cold eases quickly tomorrow afternoon into next week. @WJZ https://t.co/XjTdMHpDGA
Terrific map from Ian Livingston showing how heavy snow band Friday night set up well north of DC in Pa and New Jersey. Incredibly, up to 14” fell in this band and it produced over 5” in a single hour. https://t.co/3uQTeEJiqB
COLD BREEZE CONTINUES: It's been a COLD day with the gusty winds howling out of the northwest with windchills in the 20s. Those winds will veer out of the SW tomorrow, but day still has a breezy chill. Less wind AND sun Presidents Day means it feels pretty nice outside! @WJZ https://t.co/Ll2AckK4hO
3:00pm: We've got snow squalls approaching the area from the west. These will enter New Jersey within the next hour and could approach NYC shortly thereafter. A quick burst of heavy snow could briefly reduce visibility and lead to additional light accumulations.
Snow Squall Warning — for next 10 minutes for MetroWedt Boston & South Shore. Quick visibility drop underneath this! #snOMG @NBC10Boston https://t.co/3QFESG5Lj3

Flurries should be wrapping up this morning after last night's storm overperformed, dumping almost twice the snow expected on NYC and New Jersey. https://t.co/KKnLp5vF11
Big time snow totals in New Jersey thanks to extremely high snow to liquid ratios. This was fairly well modeled yesterday with strong frontogenetic forcing in the snow growth zone. https://t.co/EAl5TLrgFv
Salisbury, MD got in on some slo-mo snow action last night! Heavy snow pushed through the mid-Atlantic region. These areas have been snow starved for quite some time, but got their fill yesterday! #MDwx https://t.co/tjGW8Xz7mi
Wow!! What an over-achieving #snow for Northern Jersey/Pennsylvania and even into the Big Apple last night. PERFECT example of several factors coming together at the right place and right time for snow. #winter 1/3 https://t.co/KpyzsKXjQs

Looks like most of the metro area got 2-5" of snow (most prob closer to 2"). A few flakes, clouds, and patchy fog this AM, but it'll break up quickly. Highs only in the mid-30s today, but we'll warm into the low 50s tomorrow! It'll turn windy in the foothills tomorrow. #COwx https://t.co/dSooapK5k6
The heaviest snow has moved through overnight and you're likely waking up to a winter wonderland this morning. Get the latest on this quick weekend winter storm. https://t.co/fqvZygQ6Hk
The insane snow band that developed overnight and brought up to 14" of snow in PA, cut right through New York City JFK Airport caught the northern fringe of the band...6.1" Central Park (2.0") and La Guardia (2.7") just missed out https://t.co/mQdRATUJYm
One of the strangest snowstorms in recent memory impacted the Northeast overnight. A latitudinal, narrow band of very heavy snow moved essentially due east in the Pittsburgh MSA, re-developed over the Appalachians, and trained between NYC and Trenton. 1-4" outside, 8-12+" within. https://t.co/SF8o1soyju
A lighter dusting than expected, but it's a great reminder of our collective resilience. Thinking ahead? Consider joining the DC Volunteer Snow Team to help keep our sidewalks safe next time. Together, we're unstoppable! #SnowReadyDC https://t.co/BQybFi6fAO https://t.co/YYnrZyDxqm

Warm, dry weather will continue through the middle of next week with temperatures better than 5°F above the daily normal. In fact, many lower desert communities will flirt with the 80°F mark over the next several days. #azwx #cawx https://t.co/s9L2jDeBmJ
Some light snow falling across portions of the Cape and south coast this morning as a storm passes to our south. Only light accumulation expected. You can see the snow falling out our Bourne Skycam this morning! Most areas though just stuck in the clouds. @wbz https://t.co/WqKkgthFCc

You'll want to be on alert for snow squalls across Southern New England Saturday afternoon. A weak front provides the lift, the atmosphere provides low-level lapse rates >8.0 C/km and pockets of 3CAPE >50 J/kg. More than enough to work with. #MAwx https://t.co/YJLugwMe4s
