Disruptive snowstorm to eye the Northeast later this week

The cold and snow keep creeping farther south and east in the eastern United States, after weeks of being held up in Canada and the Rockies. While a fast-moving Alberta Clipper is expected to bring the first flakes of the season to parts of the interior Northeast during the middle of the week, a larger and more disruptive storm will eye much of the eastern U.S. to end the week.
"Residents throughout the Northeast, from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia to Binghamton, New York, and Bangor, Maine, will want to keep a close eye on this system for the potential for slippery, slushy roads and significant travel delays Thursday night and Friday," Tom Kines, AccuWeather senior meteorologist, said.
This next storm will first douse the southern Plains as it takes shape late Wednesday. Rain will quickly slide eastward through the Ohio and Tennessee Valley Wednesday night and Thursday.
As the rain continues to push into colder air enveloping areas farther north and east, it will change over to snow in portions of the western Ohio Valley, northern mid-Atlantic and New England.
