The massive Winter Storm Boreas, already blamed for at least fourteen deaths, is trekking east today and spreading its travel misery with a mix of dangerous snow, sleet, ice, and heavy rain. This morning, the worst of the storm is in the Appalachians and interior Northeast. By Wednesday, Boreas will impact the entire East Coast, creating havoc on the roads and in the air on the busiest travel day of the year.

 

"This morning, I'm really concerned about parts of Virginia and North Carolina and the Roanoke, Virginia area in particular," said The Weather Channel's winter weather expert Tom Niziol. "That area is getting a glaze of ice with reports of ice on I-81. That will continue for a few hours as temperatures stay below freezing but by noon that will change over to rain and it will be heavy!"
