"It will dive south in the western United States, opening the door for a large arctic air mass from Canada to settle in while at the same time lifting in the east, allowing warmer weather to build across much of the Southern Plains and southeastern United States," the meteorologist said. Warren said "the main culprit" causing this week's extreme weather pattern "is the strong and vigorous jet stream that will evolve over the next few days across the entire United States." These highly anomalous temperatures are forecast to continue later into the week." Bitterly cold wind chills 20-30 degrees below zero are expected for the Northern Plains. "Many record-tying/breaking minimum high temperatures will also be possible over the West, with highs in the 30s and 40s for the Pacific Northwest and in the 50s for California. "Many record-tying/breaking highs are possible particularly for the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys, where temperatures will be into the 70s, and closer to the Gulf Coast/Florida, where highs will be into the 80s," the advisory added. "Beyond the numerous weather hazards expected this week, another major story will be the significantly anomalous warm temperatures for February over the East and cold temperatures over the West," reads an advisory released by the National Weather Service's Weather Prediction Center, which noted that temperatures highs on Wednesday "will be 20-30 degrees above average for many locations across the Southern Plains, Midwest, and Southeast and 20-30 degrees below average over the Northern/Central Plains and much of the West."

While large coast-to-coast storms, even powerful ones, "are fairly common," Warren noted, "What makes this more unique is the extreme nature of all the possible threats across such a large portion of the United States." "It will be a long-lasting winter storm with extreme impacts stretching more or less from the West Coast to the East Coast," Chris Warren, a meteorologist and co-host at The Weather Channel, told CBS News in an email. This week's coast-to-coast storm system "will bring numerous weather hazards and significantly anomalous temperatures" stretching from Washington to Maine. The upper-level pattern will intensify in the coming days as millions of people, from the Pacific Northwest to the Northeast, brace for an oncoming blanket of snow, frozen rain, strong winds and potential flash flooding that prompted winter weather alerts in 29 states, with six states under blizzard warnings.
