Preliminary nationwide snow totals from Sunday show some places getting more than 20 inches of snow over the course of the storm.
WASHINGTON — With a massive winter storm dumping snow, freezing rain and sleet across nearly 40% of the United States, snow totals are rapidly adding up.
As of Sunday morning, the top 3 biggest snowfall totals include two in Colorado and one in Indiana, though cities in New Mexico, Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Tennessee and Texas aren’t far behind.
Roughly 213 million people were under a winter weather advisory as of early Sunday afternoon. The National Weather Service forecast warned of widespread heavy snow and a band of potentially catastrophic ice stretching from east Texas to North Carolina.
Forecasters say damage from the storm, especially in areas anticipating ice, could rival that of a hurricane. Along with winter precipitation, snow, freezing rain or sleet, a blast of Arctic air is keeping temperatures low through the weekend.
“It’s the largest storm that we’ve seen impact the most states in this big of a population in possibly decades,” said Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem at a press conference in FEMA’s headquarters Saturday. “We want everyone to recognize the seriousness of it.”
