A winter storm will deliver a punch of snow to millions in the Northeast after it dumps more white stuff on the snowy Midwest.

The D.C. area looks to be on the northern edge of a storm system sliding by to the south late Thursday night into Friday morning. While precipitation is expected to be light, temperatures falling into the upper and mid-20s will be cold enough for whatever falls to be snow, and to stick to roads and sidewalks.

A winter weather advisory is in place for multiple central North Carolina counties, including Durham and Orange counties from midnight Thursday until midnight Friday. Meteorologists are expecting mixed wintry precipitation, with total snow accumulations up to 1 inch and a light glaze of ice.

Low temperatures will be dropping into the single digits in northwestern areas and teens elsewhere Thursday night into early Friday, making it feel like the middle of winter.

The southern half of Minnesota is expected to see multiple inches of snow on Friday and Saturday, according to the National Weather Service. Friday’s morning commute is expected to be affected in the Twin Cities.

A snow squall warning was released by the National Weather Service on Thursday at 4:48 p.m. in effect until 5:30 p.m. for Essex and Middlesex counties.

The agency forecast highs of 36 degrees for Perryton and Wheeler, 37 for Gruver, and 38 for several cities including Beaver, Dalhart, Dumas, and Wellington. Amarillo will see a high of 40, while Boise will see a high of 41, according to the agency.
