Winter Storm in the U.S.

This satellite image from NOAA's GOES-13 satellite, captured at 9:01 a.m. EST on Feb. 8, 2013, shows clouds associated with the western frontal system stretching from Canada through the Ohio and Tennessee valleys, into the Gulf of Mexico. The comma-shaped low pressure system located over the Atlantic, east of Virginia, is forecast to merge with the front and create a powerful nor'easter. The National Weather Service expects the merged storm to move northeast and drop between two to three feet of snow in parts of New England.
