Snow, floods threaten New Year's Eve celebrations in US
As 2020 grinds toward a much-anticipated end, it's targeting shell-shocked Americans with one final salvo: the disruption of New Year's Eve celebrations across the country with wet, wintry weather. A storm system in the Midwest, south, and east will bring heavy rain, potential flooding, and chilly temperatures just a week after another cold front froze coastal states and delivered blizzards to Minnesota, Ohio, Iowa and the Dakotas. The Plains and the Midwest are expected to be hit once again on Tuesday and Wednesday, with large areas under Winter Weather Advisories and Winter Storm Warnings, according to the National Weather Service.
