While a large winter storm will usher in a blast of Arctic air into the eastern U.S. around the holiday this week, heavy rain, gusty winds and even some locally strong thunderstorms will threaten to dampen the holiday first. A potent storm will slowly move across much of the eastern U.S. Christmas Eve during the day and on Christmas itself, explained AccuWeather Meteorologist Jessica Storm. Ahead of the storm, milder air and a lot of moisture will surge northward along gusty winds. The storm will tap into all this moisture to spread drenching rain across a large swath of the East.

A powerful norâeaster dumped over a foot of snow in the Berkshires early Thursday, laying down a fresh blanket of fluffy powder just a week before the Christmas holiday.
Snowfall totals might have been even higher, but a shift in the stormâs track brought the heaviest snow totals to areas around Albany, N.Y., some of which got nearly 30 inches of snow.
The Eagle set up a time-lapse video from the second floor of Pittsfield City Hall to capture the nor easter. The video, which looks west over the Dunham Mall, toward North Street, begins with snow falling about 10 p.m. Wednesday and continues overnight, ending about 8 a.m. Thursday. The Eagle is grateful to Mayor Linda Tyer for allowing the camera to be set up at City Hall.
