METEORS OR ASTEROIDS OR SATELLITES FALLING STARS HIT THE EARTH DURING THE 7 YR TRIB.

AMOS 5:7,18-20-6:1
7  (WOE 1) Ye who turn judgment to wormwood,(POISON) and leave (CAST) off righteousness in the earth,(GROUND)
18 (Woe 2) unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.
19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
AMOS 6:1
1 (Woe 3) to them that are at ease in Zion,(JERUSALEM) and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!(WOE 3 IS THIRD WAVE OF WW3 WHEN ALL NATIONS MARCH TO JERUSALEM FOR BATTLE)

JOB 9:6-9 (COMPARE TO REV 6:12-17)
6 Which shaketh the earth out of her place,(QUAKE) and the pillars thereof tremble.
7 Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not;(THE SUN BLACKEND) and sealeth up the stars.(WHICH NOW FALL FROM HEAVEN)
8 Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.(THESE SAME MEORITES MIGHT POISON ALL THE EARTHS WATERS ALSO)
9 Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.(AND IT IS INTERESTING GOD THRONE IS IN THE NORTH.AND FROM THE SOUTH THESE METEORITES WILL BE FALLING ON EARTH)

COULD THE FALLING STARS-PLANETS BE PLEIADES AND ORION-JUST MY THOUGHT
Historically, the Pleiades were seen as a group of seven stars – its brightest stars: Alcyone, Atlas, Electra, Maia, Merope, Taygeta and Pleione are visible to the keen naked eye. However modern observations show that this most famous of open clusters is comprised of several hundred stars wreathed in intricately structured nebulosity.As the Pleiades cluster is close to the ecliptic (within 4°) in the constellation of Taurus it is a spring and autumnal 'seasonal' object in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Being close to the ecliptic, there are frequent occultations of the cluster with the Moon and planets. To our superstitious ancestors these were, no doubt, portentious events. Likewise, the apparent annual motion of the cluster would have been highly significant. The heliacal (near dawn) rising of the Pleiades in spring in the northern hemisphere has from ancient times augured the opening of the seafaring and farming season: while its dawn autumnal setting marked the season's end.And also Spring and fall are Bird migration seasons in Israel.It would not surprise me if Israeli wars are not fought around the time of the Pleiades-Orion happenings.The Bible contains three direct references to the Pleiades in Job 9:9 and 38:31, and Amos 5:8, and a single indirect reference in the New Testament. This latter passage (Revelation 1:16) describes a vision of the coming of the Messiah – who holds, in his right hand, seven stars.Well since the meteors do hit the earth in the last 6 months of the 7 year tribulation period.I believe.Jesus' return will be only 6 months or so from happening.So this Pieades (meteorites) earth hit would be warning the world that Jesus is about to return to earth literally.
AMOS 5:8 (FORGET ABOUT PLANET X-NIBURU)(HERES THE FALLING STARS HERE)
8 Seek him (GOD) that maketh the seven stars (plieades) and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death (darkness) into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:

JOB 38:31-33
31 Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? (BIND AND LOOSE THESE STARS)(GOD GIVES US A HINT-THESE ARE THE ONES THAT FALL TO EARTH)
32 Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?
33 Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth? (GOD TELLS US-I CAN THROW THESE STARS TO EARTH-I AM IN CONTROL OF ALL THINGS)

MATTHEW 24:29-31
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days (NEAR THE END OF THE TRIB)(IS THE ASTEROID HIT) shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,(AS A RESULT OF THE METEORITES OR ASTEROID HITTING THE GROUND-IT SHORTENS THE DAYLIGHT HOURS BECAUSE THE EARTHS GROUND STIRS UP DUST TO THE HEAVENS AND DARKENS THE SUN AND MOON.I BELIEVE WHEN THIS ASTEROID OR METEOR HITS THE EARTH-WE WILL ONLY HAVE 8 HOURS OF SUNLIGHT A DAY-SINCE THE BIBLE SAYS 1/3 OF THE SUN AND MOON WILL BE DARKENED) and the stars (METEORITES) shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.(JESUS AND THE RAPTURED CHRISTIANS COME BACK TO EARTH AT THE END OF THE 7 YEAR TRIBULATION PERIOD)(AND SINCE ITS RIGHT NEAR THE END OF THE TRIBULATION PERIOD-THE ASTEROID HITS.-THEN JESUS RETURNS TO EARTH)(SO WE KNOW NOW FOR SURE THAT THE ASTEROID HITS THE EARTH IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS OF THE 7 YEAR TRIBULATION PERIOD)(JUST BEFORE JESUS RETURNS TO EARTH)

REVELATION 6:12-17
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 And the stars (METORITES) of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come;(LAST HALF OF THE 7 YR TRIB) and who shall be able to stand?

REVELATION 8:8-13

9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star (ASTEROID) from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
11 And the name of the star (ASTEROID) is called Wormwood:(bitter,Poisoned) and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.(poisoned)
12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars;(LITERAL STARS) so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.(HERES WERE THE ASTEROID HIT BLOCKS THE SUN AND MOON-SHORTENING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS TO 8 HOURS A DAY ONLY)
13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe,(1) woe,(2) woe,(3) to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels,which are yet to sound!

What is a Nor'easter?

A Nor’easter is a storm along the East Coast of North America, so called because the winds over the coastal area are typically from the northeast. These storms may occur at any time of year but are most frequent and most violent between September and April. Some well known Nor’easters include the notorious Blizzard of 1888, the “Ash Wednesday” storm of March 1962, the New England Blizzard of February 1978, the March 1993 “Superstorm” and the recent Boston snowstorms of January and February 2015. Past Nor’easters have been responsible for billions of dollars in damage, severe economic, transportation and human disruption, and in some cases, disastrous coastal flooding. Damage from the worst storms can exceed a billion dollars.Nor’easters usually develop in the latitudes between Georgia and New Jersey, within 100 miles east or west of the East Coast. These storms progress generally northeastward and typically attain maximum intensity near New England and the Maritime Provinces of Canada. They nearly always bring precipitation in the form of heavy rain or snow, as well as winds of gale force, rough seas, and, occasionally, coastal flooding to the affected regions. The heavily populated region between Washington D.C., Philadelphia, New York and Boston, the “I-95 Corridor,” is especially impacted by Nor’easters.The U.S. East Coast provides an ideal breeding ground for Nor’easters. During winter, the polar jet stream transports cold Arctic air southward across the plains of Canada and the United States, then eastward toward the Atlantic Ocean where warm air from the Gulf of America and the Atlantic tries to move northward. The warm waters of the Gulf Stream help keep the coastal waters relatively mild during the winter, which in turn helps warm the cold winter air over the water. This difference in temperature between the warm air over the water and cold Arctic air over the land is the fuel that feeds Nor’easters.Weather forecasters at NWS local forecast offices around the country and at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction near Washington, D.C., monitor conditions conducive for Nor’easters, especially during the fall and winter. When they see conditions are favorable in the upcoming days, forecasters may issue winter storm, blizzard, high wind and coastal flood watches to alert the public that some of the worst effects of Nor’easters might be possible. If conditions are imminent, those watches are changed to warnings.Follow weather.gov to get the latest forecasts and warnings. If a Nor’easter threatens your home town, take steps to prepare, such as having three days of food, water and other provisions in a disaster supplies kit. A Nor’easter could cut power and leave you in the dark. Also, sit down with your family and create an emergency communications plan so your loved ones know how to stay in touch if you are separated. Stay off the roads if advised by local authorities and never drive into flood waters. These simple actions will help you stay safe during a Nor’easter.

Canada Under Siege: Deep Freeze and Nor’easter Cripple National Travel and Infrastructure-Published on January 27, 2026

Canada is no stranger to the biting chill of January, but the opening weeks of 2026 have brought a level of meteorological chaos that has tested the nation’s resilience. A slow-moving, powerhouse Nor’easter has effectively redrawn the travel map of the country, leaving thousands of passengers stranded and major transit hubs struggling to find their footing amidst a historic deep freeze.A Nation at a Standstill-The storm system, which began its assault over the weekend, has been characterized by its sluggish movement. Unlike typical winter fronts that sweep through in a matter of hours, this Nor’easter has lingered, rolling over major eastern cities with a heavy hand. By Monday, the impact had shifted into Atlantic Canada, but the “tail” of the storm continued to lash Ontario and Quebec, creating a ripple effect that was felt from coast to coast.Environment Canada issued a flurry of weather warnings, ranging from extreme cold alerts to blizzard conditions. However, it wasn’t just the temperature that made headlines; it was the sheer volume of precipitation and the duration of the event that turned a routine winter week into a national travel crisis.Toronto Under the Weight of 60cm-At the heart of the disruption was Toronto, Canada’s largest economic and transit engine. The city was buried under approximately 60 centimeters of snow—a staggering amount that far exceeded the capacity of local snow removal services to keep pace.The epicenter of the frustration was Pearson International Airport. As one of the world’s busiest hubs, Pearson’s operations are a delicate ballet of timing and logistics. When 60cm of snow falls in a concentrated window, that ballet stops. Operations at the airport were brought to a virtual standstill on Sunday and Monday. The backlog of de-icing requirements, runway clearing, and staff shortages meant that hundreds of flights were grounded.For travelers, the scene was one of exhaustion. Long lines at customer service kiosks and sea of suitcases became the defining images of the week. With the storm lingering through Tuesday in major hubs, the recovery process is expected to take days, as airlines scramble to rebook passengers on already overcapacity flights.Atlantic Canada Braces for the Surge-As the system tracked eastward, Newfoundland and Labrador, along with the Maritime provinces, prepared for their share of the burden. The Nor’easter’s push into Atlantic Canada brought not only snow but dangerous wind chills and “deep freeze” conditions.In these regions, the concern isn’t just about air travel; it’s about the lifelines of the provinces. Marine Atlantic ferries and regional bus services often face the brunt of these storms. With the system expected to linger in these travel hubs until mid-week, authorities are urging residents to stay off the roads and reconsider any non-essential travel. The “silver lining,” if one can be found, is the practiced resilience of Atlantic Canadians, who are no strangers to the “Inside Story” of surviving a winter blast.The Human Cost of the Cold-Beyond the logistics of flight schedules and highway closures lies the human element. The “deep freeze” warnings aren’t just technical terms—they represent a significant risk to public health. In cities like Gander, St. John’s, and Corner Brook, temperatures have plummeted, making outdoor exposure dangerous within minutes.Local shelters have been operating at maximum capacity, and community “Silver Linings” have emerged as neighbors check on the elderly and vulnerable. The weather has impacted everything from political sessions to local arts and entertainment, effectively hitting the “pause” button on community life.Looking Ahead: The Long Thaw-Meteorologists suggest that while the worst of the precipitation may pass by Wednesday, the “deep freeze” will remain. The extreme cold often follows a Nor’easter, as arctic air rushes in to fill the vacuum left by the departing low-pressure system.For the travel industry, the lesson of January 2026 is one of infrastructure limits. Despite advancements in de-icing technology and weather forecasting, nature still holds the upper hand. Passengers are encouraged to check their flight status well in advance and prepare for “blustery” starts to their journeys well into the next month.As Canada digs out from under the snow and braces against the wind, the focus remains on safety and patience. The roads will eventually clear, and the planes will eventually take flight, but for now, the Great White North remains under the icy thumb of one of the decade’s most significant winter events.

Most of Canada battles snowstorm that brings flights, schools to grinding halt-By Aarjavee Raaj Updated: January 26, 2026 at 8:49PM EST

John Vennavally-Rao has the latest from Toronto as crews work to clear snow after record snowfall closed schools and delayed flights, impacting millions.A record-breaking snowstorm wreaked havoc on southern Ontario and Quebec over the weekend, leading to the cancellation of hundreds of flights before travelling further east.According to FlightAware.com, nearly 300 flights departing Toronto’s Pearson Airport were cancelled, while airport crews cleaned up the highest daily total snowfall recorded on Sunday – 46 centimetres.Pearson warned the public of further delays on Monday, as the cleanup drive requiring massive snowplows and dump trucks continued to work on the tarmac.Flights to and from Atlantic Canada and parts of the U.S. could face further disruptions, the airport warned passengers.Here’s a look at weather conditions from coast to coast coast:Atlantic-Martimes residents continue to witness messy conditions for at least another day.Yellow snowfall warnings are active in southern parts of New Brunswick, with Environment Canada expecting between 20 to 30 centimetres of snowfall lasting until Tuesday morning, with the Fundy coast seeing a higher amount.N&L Hydro and Newfoundland Power asked customers to save electricity due to the possibility of power outages over the weekend.N&L Hydro had reported a buildup of frazil ice last week – a mix of ice crystals suspended in water – that had blocked the plant’s intake and forced it into the first shutdown since 1967.Areas in Prince Edward Island are under a special weather statement, warning residents of up to 25 centimetres of snow and northerly winds gusting between 40 to 60 km/h.Nova Scotia is also under a similar yellow warning, with Environment Canada stating that residents could face 20 to 35 centimetres of snow with 50 to 70 km/h wind gusts.Most schools in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick were closed on Monday due to the weather, while schools on P.E.I. were dismissed early.Quebec and eastern Ontario-Residents in Montreal faced power cuts to their homes and businesses, while the snow prompted school closures across the city.Quebec 511 – the provincial traveller information service – said there were several collisions due to the volume of snow, including a 15-vehicle pileup on Highway 40 in east Montreal.According to Environment Canada, the city could see an additional rate of one to two centimetres of snowfall an hour on Monday.Temperatures will touch a cool -16 C overnight in Montreal, with light snow ending at night, Environment Canada said.Tuesday continues to see light snow with daytime temperatures of –11 C, dipping to -18 C overnight. On Wednesday through Saturday, the daytime temperatures are expected to see a high between -12 C to -10 C, with the nightly dips reaching -15 C to -18.In Ottawa, the winter storm continues to ravage the city, with Environment Canada warning residents about periods of snow continuing through the afternoon bringing with it around two centimetres of snow.The nation’s capital was blanketed with around 14 centimetres of snow, leading to more than 150 collisions reported at 4:15 p.m. Police called the roads “unpredictable” amid the snowy conditions.A Via Rail train faced a delay of nearly six hours due to “operational constraints,” according to the rail service’s website on Monday, while six trains scheduled to travel through Ottawa were cancelled due to the storm.As the snow reduces, the city will see a dip in temperatures, touching a cool -21 C on Monday night with a wind chill of -28 overnight, the weather agency said.Tuesday through Thursday will see similar temperatures, according to Environment Canada, ranging between -22 C and -20 C.Greater Toronto Area, southern Ontario-The Greater Toronto Area witnessed the biggest, single-day snowstorm that dumped nearly 60 centimetres of snow throughout the region on Sunday, leading to school closures across the city while travelling anywhere within becomes messy commute.Environment Canada said Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport in the city’s downtown core saw around 56 centimetres of accumulated snow, while areas near Lake Ontario saw the most significant accumulation.Public transit routes have been majorly affected due to the snow pileups, leading to several cancellations.Temperatures in Ontario’s capital city are expected to see a low of -15 C with a 60 per cent chance of flurries on Monday night. Daytime high on Tuesday is expected to touch -8 C with a chance of flurries, as the temperature dips to a low -14 C during the night.Wednesday through Saturday will see a daytime high of temperatures ranging from -7 C to -11 C, dipping as low as -20 C on Thursday night.Western provinces-Alberta will see the return of cold and wet, seasonal weather after a chilly weekend this week. Calgary saw a warmer Sunday than Saturday with almost a five-degree difference.This week will feel warmer-than-usual for Albertans because of a ridge of high pressure from the Pacific basin building in B.C., which will send warm air their way, CTV Your Morning meteorologist, Jodi Hughes said.Monday saw a daytime high of -4, dipping to -9 at night. Meanwhile the average temperatures for the rest of the week will range between -2 C to -15 C. Thursday and Friday will experience a warmer-than-usual high of -2 C.While most of Canada was battling the snowstorms, B.C. residents are looking forward to a week of increasingly warming temperatures.Monday will see a low of 2 C with a 40 per cent chance of showers. Tuesday through Saturday will see daytime temperatures increasing from 8 C to 11 C, with the nightly dips only touching a low of 7 C. Most days of the week will see a 30 to 40 per cent chance of showers.With files from CTV News’ Rachel Lau, Josh Pringle, Natalie Lombard, David Prisciak, CP24 Staff and The Canadian Press.

15-20 cm: Parts of Atlantic Canada to still bear effects of major winter storm-Forecast Centre-Tue, January 27, 2026 at 7:11 a.m. EST

Atlantic Canada was the final stop on Monday for a destructive, massive winter storm that swept across the Deep South, Ontario and Quebec.It led to numerous closures and interruptions including schools, plus the cancellations of flights, across parts of the region as heavy snow and blustery winds prevailed.Snow will continue into Tuesday for the Maritimes before easing, while the storm impacts ramp up for Newfoundland.Prepare for more difficult travel at times as heavy, as continued blowing snow reduces visibility to near zero. Consider postponing non-essential travel and outdoor activities until conditions improve.Heavy snowfall threatens travel into Tuesday-Frigid air spilling south out of the Arctic met up with ample moisture streaming in from the south to create a once-in-a-generation winter storm across the U.S. and Eastern Canada. This system’s snow and ice caused more than one million power outages stateside.After a stormy start to the week, snow continues through the overnight hours across much of the Maritimes as the storm continues is trek east.Snowfall rates will dissipate through the early morning hours of Tuesday for Nova Scotia, P.E.I. and parts of New Brunswick.While the majority of the snowfall will have come to an end through the morning hours of Tuesday for the Maritimes, blowing snow will still make for hazardous and impactful travel conditions at times.The storm will continue its impacts across Newfoundland, with the low tracking just offshore.Heaviest snowfall rates expected for Newfoundland through the morning and early afternoon with rates of 2-3 cm an hour at times. That will be focused to central and eastern sections of the island.Most of the island can expect 10-20 cm of snow with this storm.Strongest winds are expected offshore, but blowing snow will be a hazard through the day, leading to difficult winter travel, especially by Tuesday evening.Brace for more snow ahead-Looking ahead to the long-range forecast, meteorologists will be closely monitoring yet another storm system, a nor’easter that could track up the U.S. Eastern Seaboard next Sunday and Monday, potentially impacting parts of Atlantic Canada once again with heavy snow.While the atmospheric pattern supports an active storm track remaining across the East, it’s too early to determine the exact storm track and snowfall totals of this system.Residents in Atlantic Canada are encouraged to check the forecast often as weather model guidance provides more insight to forecasters ahead of next week.

Remember when Toronto called in the military to clear snow? Here's how this storm compares-City saw nearly 150 cm of snowfall in January 1999-Natalie Stechyson · CBC News · Posted: Jan 26, 2026 1:35 PM EST |

It was one storm after another after another. And then another.It was, to quote CBC's Adrienne Arsenault, looking like "the snowiest January in 200 years." That was Toronto in January 1999, and to most people who experienced it, it was entirely too much snow."Tonight, the army moves in. Another blizzard hits southern Ontario, and Toronto just can't cope," The National told viewers at the start of the broadcast on the night of Jan. 14, 1999. That day, as a storm dropped more snow on the city, 400 soldiers arrived from Petawawa to help with snow removal. Toronto mayor Mel Lastman had called them in, drawing ridicule from many people in other cities across wintry Canada.The National revisits the moment back in 1999 when Toronto Mayor Mel Lastman called in the military to help dig the city out of a major snowstorm.Fast forward to 2026, and Toronto is once again buried after a monster storm dumped snow across the region.School boards have closed for the day, OPP have already responded to almost 200 collisions across the GTA in the past 24 hours and on Sunday, Toronto Pearson Airport recorded its highest daily snowfall on record.Some people may be wondering how they'll possibly clear so much snow. But how does it compare to January 1999, when tanks roamed Toronto streets and troops were handed shovels? Let's break it down.Too much snow-A large and strong low-pressure area brought a large snowstorm across much of southern Ontario on Sunday night, Environment Canada notes, creating significant impacts on transportation and leading to school closures across much of the GTA and surrounding areas.Toronto Pearson Airport recorded 46 cm of snow on Sunday (with up to 56 cm observed downtown) — the highest daily snowfall there on record. This also brought the January snowfall total to 88.2 cm.It's a lot of snow. But January 1999 was something else entirely.A storm on Jan. 2 dumped about 47 cm on the city. The next weekend, Toronto saw another 10 to 15 cm. And it just kept getting worse. By Jan. 12, Toronto had accumulated more than 105 cm of snow that month, according to data compiled by CBC's Climate Dashboard and Environment and Climate Change Canada.And then came one more storm, burying Toronto in another 35 cm. By Jan. 14, the city had accumulated 140 cm of snow that month."The city is snowed in," CBC's Arsenault reported on Jan. 14. "What's happening here may be tame for other Canadians, but this city is truly overwhelmed."Enter the army.In an interview with The National, Toronto mayor Mel Lastman told Peter Mansbridge the military was working on cleaning the catch basins and shovelling around fire hydrants. By Jan. 15, Lastman said the worst was over.Now, back to 2026. The total January accumulation of 88.4 cm is nothing to shake a shovel at. On Monday, Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow told a news conference they had 600 plows on city roads and sidewalks.But it doesn't come close to the record 145 cm of accumulated snow on this day in 1999.“I don't think we need to bring in the army,” Chow joked Monday.

A blizzard? Nor'easter? Cold weather advisory? What those terms mean-Katie Landeck-USA TODAY NETWORK - New England-Updated Jan. 23, 2026, 12:45 p.m. ET

With what is being hyped as the biggest storm of winter so far coming to Rhode Island and much of the United States, you might be wondering what is it.A nor’easter? A blizzard? An Arctic blast? Just plain old snow? While being a New Englander you are likely familiar with the various terms for snow and snow storms, you may not know the technical definition used by meteorologist.Winter storms, like the one coming, tend to bring out all the technical terms. Here's what they mean.What is the polar vortex?: In-depth look at how it can affect winter weather in the US.What is a blizzard? National Weather Service defines a blizzard as a storm that contains large amounts of snow or blowing snow, with winds in excess of 35 mph and visibilities of less than 1/4 mile for an extended period of time (at least 3 hours).The term originated in the 1870s when an Iowa newspaper refashioned the word, previously used to describe cannon fire, into a word for snow.Blizzard are largely defined by the low visibility, and heavy snowfall and severe cold aren't actually required to create blizzard conditions. Strong wind blowing already fallen snow can create blizzard conditions."Blizzard conditions often develop on the northwest side of an intense storm system," the NWS said. "The difference between the lower pressure in the storm and the higher pressure to the west creates a tight pressure gradient, or difference in pressure between two locations, which in turn results in very strong winds. These strong winds pick up available snow from the ground, or blow any snow which is falling, creating very low visibilities and the potential for significant drifting of snow."Thundersnow: What is thundersnow and how does it happen? The strong winds and cold temperatures accompanying blizzards can combine to create another danger. The wind chill factor is the amount of cooling one "feels" due to the combination of wind and temperature. During blizzards, with the combination of cold temperatures and strong winds, very low wind chill values can occur. It is not uncommon in the Midwest to have wind chills below -60F during blizzard conditions.Blizzards also can cause a variety of other problems. Power outages can occur due to strong winds and heavy snow. Pipes can freeze and regular fuel sources may be cut off.What is a Nor'easter? Perhaps the most talked about type of storm in New England, a Nor'easter actually isn't a term you can use to describe just any major snowstorm.A Nor’easter is a storm along the East Coast of North America that typically blow over coastal areas. These storms can occur at any time of year but are most frequent and most intense between September and April, according to the National Weather Service.Nor’easters usually develop between Georgia and New Jersey, within about 100 miles of the coast, and generally move northeastward, reaching maximum intensity near New England and the Canadian Maritime Provinces. They often bring heavy precipitation — rain or snow — along with gale-force winds, rough seas and sometimes coastal flooding.What does the meteorologist mean by heavy snow? The NWS define heavy snow in New England as snow accumulating at least 6 inches in a 12 hour period.In New England, heavy snow is defined by the National Weather Services as snow accumulating to at least 6 inches in 12 hours.What does wind chill? In extreme cold, meteorologist often talk about two numbers. The actual temperature and the wind chill.Wind chill takes into account the combined effect of lowering temperatures and the rate of heat loss from a human body, caused by the wind. Think of it like blowing on a hot cup of tea to cool it down. The more cool air that passes over the hot liquid, the faster the tea cools. Meteorologists use a mathematical formula involving the speed of the wind and the actual temperature to determine who cold it actually "feels."What is an extreme cold weather advisory When weather is expected to be dangerously cold, the NWS issues warning and advisories.A cold weather advisory is the mildest, warning of dangerous cold condition.The next step up is an extreme cold watch, "sued when extremely dangerous cold conditions or wind chill values are possible, but the occurrence, location, and/or timing is still uncertain."And the most severe is an extreme cold warning " when extremely dangerous cold conditions or wind chill values are expected or occurring."When this is issued, people are advised to dress in layers and cover exposed skin when going outside to prevent frostbite. The NWS also recommends you tell someone where you are going.Another step to take is making sure that your gas tank is at least half full.What is the coming storm? The storm expected to hit Rhode Island Sunday is currently defined just a winter storm.""It's not quite blizzard criteria, but you're going to have a lot of heavy snow, blowing sideways for at least 12 hours." Jordan Steele, a meteorologist with the Weather Channel said.A cold weather advisory has been issued for all of Rhode Island.Previous reporting contributed to this story.

Weekend nor'easter may bring even more snow to Connecticut, weather service says-By Peter Yankowski, Staff WriterJan 27, 2026

Forecasters are monitoring a potential nor'easter winter storm that could bring additional snow to Connecticut late this weekend, the National Weather Service said.While the weather service has put around a 30-40% chance of snow in the forecast for Saturday night and Sunday as of Tuesday morning, the agency's offices in New York and Boston cautioned that it's still too early to say what the impact will be. So it's not clear yet how many inches of snow Connecticut may see."We continue to monitor trends pertaining to a possible coastal system which could threaten Southern New England late this weekend/Sunday, one which has garnered quite a bit of buzz early this week given the recent snowstorm," the Boston office said in its forecasters' discussion.The Weather Prediction Center placed the storm offshore of Georgia and South Carolina Saturday morning. It will push up the East Coast tracking past Connecticut and up into the Canadian maritime Sunday morning to Monday morning. A strong coastal storm could bring snow to Connecticut on Sunday, according to some forecast models.Cold air from the system interacting with the mild Gulfstream waters could "enhance" the storm.The storm is also projected to pass in the vicinity of a key spot in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of the northeastern United States. That point is known as the 40/70 benchmark and is located at 40 degrees north latitude and 70 degrees west longitude.How storms track past that point can affect the type and duration of precipitation a nor'easter brings to New England. The weather service's New York office noted modeling suggested the storm may be a "very near miss for most of our area," with eastern areas potentially "brushed" by snow and wind.Any additional snow this weekend will come after Connecticut already was buried under up to 20 inches of snow during this past weekend's storm. That weather system carved a long path across the U.S., bringing freezing rain and ice on its southern end and heavy snow to its north, including in Connecticut. The storm left at least 30 people dead as it swept over thousands of miles from the Southwestern U.S. to New England.Ahead of the potential next storm this coming weekend, Connecticut is in for frigid temperatures, meaning the snow already on the ground is unlikely to melt significantly. 

Massive winter storm dumps sleet, freezing rain and snow around much of U.S.By The Associated Press-Updated: January 25, 2026 at 2:30PM EST

A massive winter storm dumped sleet, freezing rain and snow across much of the U.S. on Sunday, bringing subzero temperatures and halting air and road traffic. Tree branches and power lines snapped under the weight of ice, and hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses in the Southeast were left without electricity.The ice and snowfall were expected to continue into Monday followed by very low temperatures which could cause “dangerous travel and infrastructure impacts” for days, the National Weather Service said.Heavy snow was falling from the Ohio Valley to the Northeast, while “catastrophic ice accumulation” threatened from the Lower Mississippi Valley to the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast.“It is a unique storm in the sense that it is so widespread,” weather service meteorologist Allison Santorelli said in a phone interview. “It was affecting areas all the way from New Mexico, Texas, all the way into New England, so we’re talking like a 2,000-mile spread.”President Donald Trump approved emergency declarations for at least a dozen states by Saturday. The Federal Emergency Management Agency had rescue teams and supplies in numerous states, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said.In New York, communities near the Canadian border saw record-breaking subzero temperatures, with Watertown registering minus 34 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 37 degrees Celsius) and Copenhagen minus 49 F (minus 45 C), Gov. Kathy Hochul said.Coping with the storm-Freezing rain that slickened roads and brought trees and branches down on roads and power lines were the main peril in the South. In Corinth, Mississippi, heavy machinery manufacturer Caterpillar told employees at its remanufacturing site to stay home Monday and Tuesday.“May God have mercy on Corinth, MS! ... The sound of the trees snapping, exploding & falling through the night have been unnerving to say the least,” resident Kathy Ragan wrote on Facebook.In Clarksdale, Mississippi, Sanford Johnson said enough snow and sleet fell that few motorists ventured out.“I had to break it to my youngest daughter that the play date she scheduled likely won’t happen today. We have no plans on driving,” Johnson said.It already was Mississippi’s worst ice storm since 1994 with its biggest-ever deployment of ice-melting chemicals -- 200,000 gallons (750,000 liters) -- plus salt and sand on roads, Gov. Tate Reeves said at a news conference.He urged people not to drive anywhere unless absolutely necessary. “Do please reach out to friends and family,” Reeves added.In Nashville, Tennessee, Jami Joe, 41, feared her electricity might not last as ice-heavy limbs from oak and pecan trees continued to crash around her house. “It’s only a matter of time if a limb strikes a power line,” she said.Because of icy roads, Josh Martin figured he and his wife, Misti, were “locked in” for a while at their home on a steep hill in Columbia, Tennessee.“Getting in and out of the neighborhood is not an option,” Martin said. “I can get down because gravity will take me, but I could not get back up.”Elsewhere, deep snow -- over a foot (30 centimetres) in a 1,300-mile (2,100-kilometre) swath from Arkansas to New England -- halted traffic and canceled flights.On Manhattan’s Upper East Side, January Cotrel enjoyed the fresh snow on a block that always closes during snowstorms for residents to sled, throw snowballs and make snowmen.“I pray for two feet every time we get a snowstorm. I want as much as we can get,” she said. “Let the city just shut down for a day and it’s beautiful, and then we can get back to life.”Storm knocks out power and snarls flights-As of Sunday morning, about 213 million people were under some sort of winter weather warning, Santorelli said. Hundreds of thousands of customers were without power according to poweroutage.us, with Tennessee and Mississippi hit especially hard.Some 12,000 flights were canceled Sunday and nearly 20,000 were delayed, according to the flight tracker flightaware.com. Airports in Philadelphia, Washington, Baltimore, North Carolina, New York and New Jersey were among those impacted.Bitter cold makes things worse-The danger will continue after the ice and snow, Santorelli warned.“Behind the storm it’s just going to get bitterly cold across basically the entirety of the eastern two-thirds of the nation, east of the Rockies,” she said. That means ice and snow won’t melt as fast, which could hinder efforts to restore power.In New York City, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said at least five people who died were found outside as temperatures plunged Saturday, though the cause of their deaths remained under investigation. He urged people to stay inside and off the roads: “We want every single New Yorker to make it through this storm.”Two men died of hypothermia related to the storm in Caddo Parish in Louisiana, according to the state health department.Across the affected areas, schools and universities announced that classes would be canceled or held remotely Monday.Recovery could take time-In Oxford, Mississippi, police appealed for residents to stay home. Utility crews were also pulled from their jobs during the overnight hours.“Due to life-threatening conditions, Oxford Utilities has made the difficult decision to pull our crews off the road for the night,” the utility company posted on Facebook early Sunday. “Trees are actively snapping and falling around our linemen while they are in the bucket trucks.”Oxford city officials posted dramatic photos on social media of slick roads and ice-coated trees sagging or breaking under the added weight.In Tennessee, emergency officials urged motorists to give crews space to treat roads as drivers have been crashing into them.Icy roads also made travel dangerous in north Georgia, where the Cherokee County Sheriff’s office posted on Facebook, “You know it’s bad when Waffle House is closed!!!” along with a photo of a shuttered restaurant. Whether the chain’s restaurants are open -- known as the Waffle House Index -- has become an informal way to gauge the severity of weather disasters across the South.Kate Brumback and Julie Walker, The Associated Press-Brumback reported from Atlanta.
