Texas could see record-breaking February heat while more snow looms for Northeast
Just one week after a historic blizzard pummeled New England and other parts of the Interstate 95 corridor, yet another potential multi-day winter storm could impact millions across 25 states in the Northeast, as well as the Midwest beginning Sunday.
TEXAS – As temperatures rise across the Southwest, Texas could see days of record-breaking February heat throughout the rest of the week. Meanwhile, the Northeast braces for the chance of even more snow.
Rounds of snow have pounded the I-95 corridor. From a historic blizzard to more light flurries, and now with another winter storm on the horizon, the region could continue to be hammered by more winter weather.
Earlier this week, snowfall records were shattered, including a whopping 37.9 inches recorded in Povidence, Rhode Island, making it the all-time biggest snowstorm for the city.
