A weekend East Coast storm may bring disruptive, wind-driven snow to the Carolinas and nearby states, with possible northward impacts along the Atlantic Seaboard. Forecast uncertainty remains, but very frigid air behind the storm will push deep into the Southeast, threatening sub‑32°F temperatures in Florida’s citrus region early next week. Much of the eastern U.S. will stay cold and mostly dry through the weekend before warmer air moves into the nation’s mid‑section early next week.
