A winter storm was sweeping across a large portion of the US on Thursday, bringing snow, ice and rain to several states in the Midwest and Northeast.

The ingredients needed to create blockbuster Northeast winter storms historically align this month, all that’s needed is a storm to take the right track.

Freezing rain and ice accumulation is expected to continue into the morning hours Thursday, leading to potential issues with the morning commute. The National Weather Service’s forecast for tomorrow calls for highs to eventually climb into the low 40s with precipitation changing back to rain and helping to melt any ice accumulation.
