15 million Americans under flood watch as rain drenches Northeast

This weekend, much of America is being hit with severe weather as a coastal storm drenches the Northeast.

Fifteen million Americans are under flood watch and eight million are facing winter and snow alerts Sunday as a coastal storm drenching the Northeast is predicted to downpour for most of the day.

What’s falling from the sky depends on where you are and when. The dynamic storm is running into just enough cold air to help change the rain to wet snow, especially in the higher elevations.

Winter weather advisories are in effect for several locations in the Northeast with an upgrade to winter storm warnings for parts of Massachusetts, New York, Vermont and New Hampshire.

While some parts of the Northeast will see a few breaks in rain during the day, weather forecasters predict a cloudy, rainy and snowy day for millions of people.
