"A major storm that will swing onshore in California is the one to watch for trouble from snow and rain in the East by next weekend," according to AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Joe Lundberg. 

The current projected track for the storm would bring it to this region sometime on Friday, Jan. 13, and it could linger into Saturday, Jan. 14.

"The extent and timing of storm-related travel disruptions across the Midwest and Northeast will become clearer in the coming days," according to AccuWeather.com.

As for this weekend's system, the window for possible precipitation in some parts of the region shown in the second image above is now in the early morning hours on Monday, Jan. 9, mainly prior to daybreak.

Since the arrival of the coast-to-coast storm is still about a week away, there's uncertainty surrounding its potential strength, track, and timing.
