WEATHER: Cold blast reaches East Coast and Central US, Santa Ana winds forecast to recede in CA.
A powerful storm that brought wind gusts above 60 mph to much of the Northeast -- as well as flash flooding to parts of New York -- is officially out of the region and headed into the Northern Atlantic.
The cold front also brought a dramatic drop in temperatures to Northeast. After some areas saw temperatures in the 70s on Thursday, Friday’s highs were only in the 50s. In some cases the temperature drop was close to 30 degrees. That second wave of cold air is also ushering in some precipitation to parts of the Great Lakes. Currently, rain and snow showers are spread out across Michigan this morning. Once this system moves eastward, cold winds will be oriented so they flow over parts of the relatively warm Great Lakes. As a result, lake effect snow will develop in parts of the region, especially from Northeast Ohio to Western New York.
