"DC and Midwest Brace for First Major Winter Storm in Two Years This Weekend"
Washington D.C. is preparing for its first significant winter storm in two years, with snow, rain, and sleet expected to begin on Saturday morning. The storm may start with snow but will likely transition to rain as warmer air moves in, limiting snowfall potential near the I-95 corridor. Higher elevations could see 4-8 inches of snow. Winter storm warnings and weather advisories have been issued for various regions. A powerful blizzard is forecasted to hit the Midwest next week, with cities like Kansas City and Chicago bracing for heavy snow, while the East Coast should expect strong winds and heavy rain. The National Weather Service warns of potential flooding, and another storm is anticipated by the end of next week. Residents are advised to avoid travel during the storm and stay updated with the latest weather information.
