Roughly 100 million people are under some form of a winter storm watch, warning or advisory across the United States.
The
storm is already affecting travel with nearly 450 flights canceled as
of Friday morning, according to FlightAware.com. Airlines are issuing
waivers for travelers traveling in the Midwest and Northeast.
Major
metro areas on the East Coast likely will face light snow Friday ahead
of and during the morning commute. The storm should move so quickly that
accumulations are expected to remain low in New York and Boston.
The second storm is associated with the same upper-level energy as the
West Coast storm that has dumped inches of rain in cities such as Los
Angeles and caused blizzard conditions in the Sierra Nevada.
