Winter Storm Jett intensifies into bomb cyclone bringing snow and high winds to Northeast

Winter Storm Jett is intensifying into a bomb cyclone, bringing snow, ice, and high winds to the Northeast and northern U.S. this weekend. The storm has already affected areas from the Appalachians to upstate New York, with significant snowfall reported. Snowfall of over a foot is expected in parts of upstate New York and northern New England. Central Pennsylvania and southern New England may experience hazardous icing, while wind gusts could reach 60 mph in some areas, leading to potential power outages. The storm has already caused heavy snowfall in California and parts of the West. As it moves east, warmer air will change some snow to rain, impacting travel conditions across the region.
