More than 15 million Americans are currently under alerts for snow and ice while the number currently under alerts for cold weather is hovering around 130 million.
Friday’s storm made for a winter wonderland in many parts of the Mid-Atlantic and the Northeast as Philadelphia picked up 4.6 inches of snow from the storm along with a few reports of up to 6 inches nearby in southern New Jersey.
That storm moved out to sea on Friday night, but lake effect snow bands will stick around for at least another few days.
Meanwhile, an intense snow band walloped northwestern Indiana yesterday, dropping 32 inches of snow in less than 24 hours in Pinola.
Overall, however, quiet and cold weather will be in store for much of the eastern half of the U.S. over the weekend.
