-- Forecasters from Philadelphia to Portland, Maine, have warned that "flash freezing" could make roads dangerously slippery a day after snow fell on much of the East Coast... National Weather Service forecaster Bill Simpson in Massachusetts said Monday night the biggest concern was for areas where rain and slush ponded on roads before temperatures plunged. "They are going to have a pretty difficult time when that slush freezes," he said... Arctic temperatures following the storm were expected to bring minus 20 degree wind chills in parts of Pennsylvania, New York and New England, and minus 35 degrees in pockets near the Canadian border...

Numerous Chicago-area attractions are closed, more than 1,100 flights have been canceled at Chicago's airports and snow-covered roads are making travel treacherous)
-- While National Weather Service meteorologist Brad Rehak, said the weather forecast is looking “less bad” tonight than earlier this morning, expect 1 to 3 inches of snow in the Pittsburgh area on Sunday, with most falling in the afternoon and evening. “The storm is moving further to the north than originally predicted, which will draw in warmer air,” he said. “We’re pretty confident it’s going to continue on the northern path.” On Sunday night, the snow will change to freezing rain, and then likely back to snow Monday morning. The high temperature Monday will be around 18. The snow is expected to stop by Monday afternoon... Pittsburgh,PENN,USA -The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette -January 31, 2015
