A cross-country storm will deliver snow, rain, wind and possibly severe storms as it tracks from the West toward the central and eastern U.S. in the coming days.
Here's where the system is now and its general timing: The disturbance that will spawn this widespread storm is located in the northern Pacific Ocean. It will track into the Northwest on Thursday.
From there, we expect the storm to intensify as it moves into the central and eastern states late Friday through the weekend. The general progression of this system is shown by the "L" icon in the graphic below.

Day-By-Day Timing Forecast
Thursday
The storm will spread rain and mountain snow from the Pacific Northwest to the northern Rockies as it enters the U.S. This system won't pack heavy amounts of precipitation in those regions, but could still impact travel.
Friday
Snow is expected from the Wasatch into the central Rockies and the adjacent High Plains as the work week comes to a close. That means the Interstate 25 corridor, including the Denver metro area, could see travel impacted by at least light snowfall.
Friday's Forecast
Saturday
The system will begin to intensify while tapping into Gulf of Mexico moisture as the weekend begins.
Rain and thunderstorms are possible across the South and Ohio Valley. Severe thunderstorms could pack damaging winds and a possible tornado threat from eastern Texas into the lower Mississippi Valley, but that will depend on how unstable the atmosphere becomes.
Farther north, there will be a stripe of snow, or rain mixed with snow, in the Midwest and western Great Lakes. The track of the storm and how much of its moisture overlaps with colder air will determine what areas see wintry weather.
Saturday's Forecast
Sunday
The cold front accompanying this system will race toward the East Coast to end the weekend.
Rain in the Northeast could be accompanied by strong winds. The Southeast will see rain, gusty winds and thunderstorms, some of which could be strong.
Western and northern portions of the Great Lakes might see snow and wind, but once again, the details of this system's wintry side are still uncertain.
