Packing a potentially deadly ice threat that could stretch 1,000 miles from Texas to Ohio, Winter Storm Cleon geared up Thursday to provide another shot of dangerous weather to the Plains and Midwest. "For those who use electric heat, they could be without power for several days, especially in places that are difficult to reach," said Tom Niziol, winter weather expert for The Weather Channel. "This will mean the potential for water pipes freezing and more importantly endangers people who will not be able to stay warm. Plan and prepare to hunker down." Bitterly cold temperatures prompted safety warnings for residents in the Rockies and threatened crops as far south and west as California.

Wednesday Highs

December has arrived. And even though the winter season most of us are familiar with, "astronomical" winter, doesn't begin until the winter solstice on Dec. 21, we meteorologists have already started our winter season. Meteorological winter began Dec. 1 and runs through the last day of February.

 

It looks like Mother Nature is following the meteorologists' calendar this year as bitterly cold arctic air plunges southward across much of the West and eventually expands across the Plains and Midwest. This will send temperatures to their lowest levels of the season – and in some cases, potentially the coldest in several years. Along with the cold comes a nasty bout of snow and ice associated with Winter Storm Cleon.

Heavy snow is expected Tuesday and Tuesday night from east-central Nevada into primarily the mountains and high plateau of Utah and western Colorado, before tapering off Wednesday morning. The heaviest snow accumulations are expected in the Tetons and Beartooth Range of southwest Montana, northwest Wyoming, the Wasatch of Utah and mountains of Colorado, where over a foot of total snow may accumulate.
