The massive storm slamming the eastern half of the US is only one piece in a very active weather pattern. Multiple weather hazards are impacting the country Friday morning, so the National Weather Service has issued some kind of weather alert for every state.
Everything from blizzard warnings to tornado warnings are in effect early Friday as the massive storm works its way across the eastern half of the US. Wind alerts stretch nearly 2,000 miles from Texas to New England, while flood alerts span from the mid-Atlantic to Northeast.
Another robust storm in the Northwest is bringing snow and wind to the region and temperature alerts dot several states as brutally cold air starts to seep south out of Canada.
Alerts are in effect in Alaska ahead of a winter storm set to impact the state this weekend. Even Hawaii is dealing with the impacts of stormy weather as a potent cold front slices across the islands.
