Winter storm moves across U.S. with another one on the way

More than 100 million people are waking to winter weather alerts and warnings Wednesday morning, as storm systems cause severe conditions, biting cold and travel chaos from coast to coast.

The National Weather Service warnings stretch from Colorado to Maine; multiple storms systems have dumped as much as 9 inches of snow in West Virginia and disrupted planned confirmation hearings in Washington, D.C.

Back-to-back winter storms threaten to continue the icy conditions and snowfall over these regions in the next two days and a third storm is expected by the weekend. As much as 6 inches of snow could fall in Maryland, while New York City could get between 1 and 2 inches.
