In advance of the Friday-Weekend East Coast winter storm with heavy snow, gusty winds and coastal impacts, here are a few tips to follow. #WeatherReady

⚠️❄️A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued from 4 am to 6 pm Thursday. A wintry mix of freezing rain and snow is expected to produce hazardous travel conditions due to ice and snow. This forecast remains uncertain, so please keep checking for later updates. #HUNwx

[5:50 AM] Severe storms will be possible Saturday afternoon/evening into Saturday night. Damaging winds, tornadoes, hail, & heavy rainfall will be possible with these storms. NOW is the time to review your severe weather safety plan. Have multiple ways to receive warnings! #HUNwx

New data continues to suggest storms could be severe across parts of MS/AL Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday night… especially from 3pm to midnight CT. Storms will be capable of producing strong winds and a few tornadoes. Be sure you are able to hear warnings if they are needed!

These maps valid Sunday night (global model output) are being plastered all over the Facebag and Tweeter. Know there is no skill at a snow forecast here 6-7 days out… this is just one idea on the table. Focus on the two severe weather threats (Wednesday and Saturday) for now.

6:30 AM: We've enjoyed warmer than normal temperatures this December, and now the chickens have come home to roost. We're monitoring the potential for two rounds of strong to severe storms (1) Wednesday and (2) Saturday. Take time now to review your safety plan! #HUNwx
