Winter Storm Titan: Ice Storm Possible for Ohio Valley; Snowstorm for West, Midwest, Northeast

Source: The Weather Channel

Friday: Heavy rain and mountain snow in California. Snow levels will be low enough for snow to reach major roadways over the Sierra Nevada. Farther south, snow in the higher mountains of Southern California will affect higher elevations such as Big Bear. (MORE: West Coast soaking)

Saturday: The main event east of the Rockies will begin to unfold as snow spreads east across portions of the Plains and Upper Midwest. For the Northern Rockies, this will just be a continuation of snow from the previous, weaker disturbance. Widespread snow is likely across much of Montana and Wyoming, while farther south the snow will be more tied to higher elevations. (See inset map for details.)

Sunday: The more significant part of Winter Storm Titan begins with snow, sleet and freezing rain becoming heavier. A stripe of significant ice accumulation is likely Sunday and Sunday night from the Ozarks through much of the Ohio Valley with snow farther north from the central Plains into the mid-Mississippi Valley, Ohio Valley. These threats shift into the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast Sunday night.

Monday: Snow/sleet tapers off in the Ohio Valley and Appalachians, but continues through at least midday along the Northeast corridor, before tapering off in the afternoon and evening. Ice/sleet areas early in the day in the Mid-Atlantic states should changeover to snow before ending.

I absolutely detest this shameless marketing. So much so, that I have removed all my weather bookmarks for that particular business and replaced them with public links that are just as valuable but way less crass and sensational.

You all be careful out there. We're used to it; we are equipped. Few, except the upper Midwest and North Atlantic states are.

My daughter has written of some of her Alabama snow experiences. Fortunately, her dad's smart about this stuff, too - hates it, but can deal with it.

Meanwhile up here? Mildest winter in years; currently 21 above (sloppy roads, but no bigs) and clear. Hoping for an early spring - say May this year instead of June.

moose, lynx, bear............

But nice for us bikers if we get an early spring. I'd rather have it be "normal" and about 14 below today. It's 23 above at 5:32 p.m.

We're basically wearing light coats and t-shirts.
