An arctic outbreak is coming to the USA starting this weekend with its peak during 20-22/01. Very cold air masses from the North Pole are crossing over Canada moving southeastwards towards the Unites States. Total frost, snow, blizzard and fog is expected across the central eastern and northeastern states, while partially frost and wintry conditions in the southern. Temperature drop is expected also to the western states, Oregon and California, but with higher temperatures and better conditions than the central and eastern states.
Minimum temperatures around -20°C to -30°C: temperatures will be around 20-25°C below normal with minimum temperatures reaching -20°C to -30°C or even -35°C locally in the central and northern states. Maximum temperatures will be below 0°C across the central and northern states and a few degrees above in the southern. Minimum temperatures are expected close to -15°C in New York, Washington, Bristol, -7°C in Northern Carolina and -20°C to -25°C in Michigan.
This severe temperature drop is normal for this period as the biggest peaks of low temperatures are recorded usually in the last days of January for the USA.
Schools are possible to close to many states during the first days of the new week and other important measures could be taken.
