(NEW YORK) -- A deadly storm wreaked havoc across the eastern half of the U.S., bringing blizzard conditions to the Midwest, tornadoes to the South and torrential rain to the Northeast -- and a new storm is on the move.
In the South, they are cleaning up after the wild weather produced up to 428 damaging storm reports from Texas to Maryland, including at least 14 reported tornadoes.
Three fatalities were reported in Mississippi, according to state officials.
In the Midwest, dangerous whiteout conditions took over roads in Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan.
The highest snowfall total was in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where 2 feet was recorded.
The Twin Cities reported 9.5 inches of snow, marking the biggest snowfall of the season.
In the Northeast, a squall line moved through Wednesday evening, bringing 1 to 2 inches of heavy rain and 50 to 60 mph winds.
The storm now has moved out, but windy conditions remain on the East Coast. Wind alerts were in effect Thursday morning from Georgia to Maine, where wind gusts could top 50 mph.
Meanwhile, a new storm is hitting the West on Thursday before moving east to the Plains, Midwest and then the Northeast.
On Thursday, heavy snow will fall from California to Wyoming. Locally, 1 to 3 feet is possible
Rain will continue for Southern California, including Los Angeles and San Diego, where thunderstorms are possible. There's not a major threat for flash flooding, but there could be debris flow in wildfire burn scar areas.
On Thursday evening, this storm system will move into the Plains, from Nebraska to Iowa, where several inches of snow is possible.
By Friday morning, some of this snow will move into the Midwest, including Chicago, and parts of the southern Great Lakes. A couple of inches of snow is possible in Illinois, Indiana and southern Michigan.
Friday night, a few rain showers and snow showers are possible in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
