A second winter storm in as many days is slamming parts of the Midwest before rolling toward the East Coast. Major travel disruptions are likely.

Tuesday’s overnight storm dropped 8 inches of snow in Galloway in Atlantic County and 7.8 inches in Cape May, the weather service said. There were widespread totals of 6 inches or more in Atlantic County and lighter snow accumulations in central and northern New Jersey.

Rain, snow and sleet fell across a 1,500-mile stretch of the eastern US Tuesday, with more than a foot of snow recorded across parts of the Appalachians in Virginia and West Virgi

On Wednesday, the second in trio of storms this week will bring accumulating snow to the Rockies, Plains and Midwest before moving into the Northeast.

A procession of winter storms is forecast to bring snow, sleet, ice and potentially flood-inducing rain to sprawling bands of the U.S. this week.
