The season’s first nor’easter is bulldozing through more than a dozen states, knocking out power for hundreds of thousands of people and causing many flight cancellations. Meanwhile, 26 million people in California are facing flood alerts from yet another storm. NBC News’ Emilie Ikeda has the latest and Bill Karins has our forecast.

#NBCNews #WinterStorm #Weather
I live in Upstate NY by Plattsburgh. We have over 2 foot and counting. Lost power for 6 hrs
Put your masks one and stay low
In Maine it got real Slippery real quick. Multiple people off the road. Lots of trees down but saw lots a lineman out and ready to work. Huge thanks to the lineman who get the power back on.
Prayers are with citizens in Maine 🙏🙏
@truthseekers lucky you
@Dan Rhone not “luck”, normal, same thing every Winter, just like same crap every Winter over there. Duck science.
@truthseekers but still
@Dan Rhone but still what, plane, train, auto, follow dad ducks…
Im in washington state and I took with out a sweater today. I feel so close but still far away.
stay warm!
Oh no…..The Atmospheric River Froze And Dropped Tiny Crystals Everywhere….I Think It Is Some Of That Global Warming Snow 👀
At least, we now know, that California didn’t sink into the Ocean….
By an EARTHQUAKE.
People are idiots. The warning’s started four days ago and yet they still wanna challenge mother nature. Then they complain / cry / sue when they get injured.
Stupid Human Trick, watch geese fly south for the Winter and not follow them.
RIGHT!!!!!!
what winter we are close to April
Omg…hunker down people…you’re almost done with winter you guys are going to be ok……and please don’t move to Florida …it’s so crowded here now and the houses here for single family home is near the $400,000 way over priced and the theme parks are overrated …..you’re paying for a place that’s jammed packed of sweaty people with bad attitudes and you don’t get refunds due to weather….it’s Florida and practically summer here now which means thunder storms 🌩️ every afternoon
I visit Ana Marie almost yearly from Mi. I watch the Tampa news almost daily. You aren’t lying. Lmfao
I love storms….it’s free entertainment 😄 ⚡
No lie with that information. FL is dirty and gross 😮
@MLSA Should move to LA.
@jeff jansen ohh been there. No way, lol 😂
It’s like AEnema by Tool hits the nail on the head. R.A.T.M. did that too. Eerie. What other songs predict the future?🤔

God almight rules in the kingdom of man repent Jesus christ is our soon coming king repent
lol. Funny stuff.Why didn’t jesus help you write a proper sentence>?>?
Bow to the great Cornholio 😂
… the major flooding in california is caused by a man-made disaster, a 100-foot portion of a levee collapsing … this levee has been petitioned by local authorities to be reconstructed way before the start of the year … ball schiff liberal climate change cultists should not blame this tragedy to climate change !!!
dont worry, global warming isnt a thing, right?
Missed us again 🥶 NYC
But the bullets don’t 😅. Every 5 minutes some roach kills someone in NYC.
@Maya Same. #JerseyShore 🌊
@Jim Doe That’s why if you’re not from here you shouldn’t come to NYC….the life you might save may be your own.
China.
First they released Corona on us, now their mysterious “Weather Balloon” is causing catastrophic weather events
It’s still winter? I thought it was spring already. My bad I don’t know my seasons in order
Deez Nuttz
IF EVERY TREE WITHIN THE REACH OF POWERLINES WERE CUT DOWN LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS WOULD NEVER LOSE POWER!!!
Put the power lines underground like everywhere else.-
right and who is going to cut private property trees?
This is a ridiculous suggestion.
Is Ted Cruz flying to Cancún also this year?
The title says it all , people don’t see it. It’s an attack of the darkness.
I love the darkness.
I don’t like the time change….too much daylight 😒
When I was a kid in the 60s ,we had snow on Long Island on Easter Sunday. We had to find the eggs outside in the snowcover.snow over. And people want to make a big deal out of this. LOL…doom and gloom and fear is all that the MSM and the Weather Channel push 24/7/365.
Where is joe biden when you need him
Did uhh she say Russian waters? Or rushing waters? Lol took me a sec
Trump did it 😂
Climate change guys that’s what it’s all about
And in other parts of the country this is called winter
Winter is a racist word
china and russia did it
It’s GEOENGINEERING Tell the TRUTH. When all is said and done you will give account for the lives lost because because you did nit warn the people.
32 inches in one town, wow
Though denied by HAARP project officials, some respected researchers allege that the electromagnetic warfare capabilities of the project were designed to forward the US military’s stated goal of achieving “Full-spectrum Dominance” by the year 2020 and of “Owning the Weather in 2025” (see USAF document summary here). Others go so far as to claim that HAARP technologies have been and continue to be used for weather control, to cause earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis, to disrupt global communications systems, and more.
WE ARE IN A STRUGGLE TO SAVE LIFE ON EARTH? AND WE AREN’T EVEN TRYING? METHANE POOLS AND CO2 ARE OUT OF CONTROL.
Big Business stopped the struggle to save earth from greenhouse gases? They aren’t concerned with lifes future just profits and power? Do you care?
This is exactly why we need to upgrade our power grid so that ugly power lines are no longer above ground.
You can’t keep abusing Mother Nature and not expect consequences!
Conshohocken PA here, 10 miles N and W of Philly, and we haven’t seen ANY SNOW YET this winter, a few flakes, but that’s it. I’m so jealous!!
There’s been like four situations in eastern MA where we were supposed to get like 5+ inches of snow and we got exactly zero inches and it just rained.
80° in Hawaii and sunny
Thats because its all BS. The temp forecasted was never dropping below freezing. When did snow become possible when its 37 degrees out.
@Kuhlyedascope temperature changes with elevation, and accumulation depends on ground temperature.
@David im agreeing with you. . . . theres no snow
Global warming 🤣🤣🤣
That Rochester landing!
Dang ol’ global warming.
Why was that city bus working in those conditions I thought you told people not to drive and you make that city bus work what a model
Can California just wash into the ocean. Well most of it
Come to Florida!
Fierce wipping winds, violent water, brutal snow LOL
Last thing I was going to be was a senior citizen shoveling snow every Winter. “POORLY EDUCATED”
Beautiful outside in CT! 😍
Gee, maybe Mother Nature’s trying to tell y’all “have enough sense to get out of the cold” and stop with all the global warming in wintry places. Biggest cause of the destruction of our environment is humans who live where winter is frozen. In those places, humans have sufficiently destroyed the environment and ecosystems enough to warrant the Planet Earth to serve them an eviction notice.
Bad weather
Ikeda!
My Mentors name
Good job
Its actually pretty warm in MA, even without power your home will stay pretty warm and won’t fall below 50F….wind on wed could be tough though
When was that, last year maybe
OMG it is finally snowing like winter is supposed to……yeeeeeeeees!
Anyone up for a game of badminton?
Can we just finally rename them “Northeastern” storms? Enough with the pirate talk.
I thought it never rains in Southern California… 🎶
It does, when the military controls the weather.
We had a Sow’wester……
Glad I’m on the right side of a democratic state 🤣
Why do Americans have to shout?
I lived in Provincetown in the mid-90s during a nor’easter.
PANIC NEWS ROOM…
I’ve seen 2012 and this is way better
In ancient times times if so much from every direction was going wrong under a leader they would want that leader to be gone. Never ever seen so much go wrong at the same time so many many times in such a short time period. Ever!
You better prepare for the thunder
You crossed the line
I’ll make sure you never forget it
I’m about to even the score
Get ready
Like nothing you seen before
Get ready
I’m gonna even the score
Can you feel it comin
The bed that you made
Callin your name
You better prepare for the thunder
You crossed the line
I’ll make sure you never forget it
💨 💨🥁🌎🥁🌎💨💨🥁🌎🥁🌎💨💨💨💨💨💨💨
I used to live in the Northeast. Now, I just sit back and love watching these winter storm videos from my home in Phoenix, AZ. 🤣🤣
I live in Central Illinois and we have been lucky. I think we have not even received 6 inches snow total since the winter season began in December. California has been hit hard and it’s strange how the weather has been the last few years.
🇺🇸🌏🌬👁↕️↕️👁🏃🏼🫵🏽🤔🌊🌊🌊🌊
God giving Karma to the people who voted for woke America
Make sure we help minorities and LGBT people first.
Incorrect NBC. This is NOT THE FIRST Nor’easter. This is the first one of 2023 but not for winter. Did we forget about NY in November and December? Idiocy.
Cali wanted water here she comes. I bet mead is full now
Who knew the Greenhouse Gases actually turn the Greenhouse to a freezer. Oh look, the ozone layer is depleted, polar bears swim 1000 miles to find ice…etc.
Hunga Tonga
at least california finally got their water 🤷♂️ instead of a huge fire
But, we werent supposed to see snow again after 2008
The LA River descends as much elevation in 51 miles as the Mississippi River does in 2100 miles. If the flood control system in LA (including the River) somehow ever fails, it would be the biggest flood in US history.
I’m not too much into March as far as weather goes
Is there actually going to be a white Christmas in July?!!!

This is a news from South Korea. You might wanna interview him. Former President’s grandson’s channel.
California needs to delete it self 💀
How to start preparing.
Take three days during the work week and turn off your electric and water. Make do with what you can and write down things you needed and didn’t have or tasks that were difficult. After you have this list, research alternatives
Eat, wear and consume cheaper. Choose cheaper meals to create room in your grocery budget to put back food. Wear second hand clothes or put a spending freeze on clothes shopping in order to make room to buy what you’ll need for the future (especially if you have small children who grow frequently). Consume less electricity, gas, propane by finding alternatives. This may mean using a crock pot, hang drying clothes, using candles at night and opening windows for sunshine during the day etc. With the wiggle room you’ve created in those bills you now have some money to buy more food storage, medical supplies or invest in a small solar unit.
Make an edc bag. This is something you will carry all the time (on your person or in your car) that could provide you with what you and your family need for 3 nights. Think about what you may put into an overnight bag if you were to stay at a hotel. This will ensure even if something happens and you’re out you’re able to shelter in place
Understand how to take care of medical emergencies at home. Remember that in a major event, ems could be down or unavailable for sometime. While this is never the first line of defense in an emergency, understanding how to manage medical emergencies (high infections, deep wounds, pneumonia, asthma attacks, shock, 2nd and 3rd degree burns, poisoning, radiation sickness, torn ligaments, allergic reactions, excessive bleeding) while you wait on help can be life and death.
Food, water, temperature control are your highest priorities. If faced with a major event where services are limited for more than 3 days, having stored food as well as a way to cook, a way to filter and store water, and a way to keep yourself cool or warm can be life altering.
Please remember as we are entering or for some of us are already in uncertain times, having this foundation gives security as well as lowers stress. It allows us to feel more in control and gain a more positive perspective on not only our lives but the world. I’m willing to answer any questions from my own experience in the comments if you feel overwhelmed!
In the 1970’s scientific computer models showed a trend of global warming. This extra energy would cause extreme weather. We all laughed. They said it would happen in about 40 years. We had our chance, instead of doing something, we laughed.
Please keep these things on hand. Being able to treat things at home either while you wait for EMS or to prevent the illness from being bad enough to have to go to the hospital. Even if you never ever use them and the medical system in your area works like a charm it’s so so important to have it as an option.

Global warming ya right. this dose not look like its warming it looks like its getting colder.
2 feet of snow? That’s it?
