"NEW YORK (Reuters) - The United States east of the Rocky Mountains will see
extreme cold in the next two to three weeks with at least one forecaster
calling it the coldest in 25 years, meteorologists said on Tuesday.
"In the next six to 10 days, it will be colder than normal north of a line
from Washington, D.C. to Denver," said Joe Bastardi of AccuWeather. "In the
next 15 to 20 days, everybody is extremely cold including freezes into
Florida and Texas."

"In the worst-case scenario, in much of the energy consuming areas of the
country, from the Rockies to New England, can look at the coldest 10- to
20-day periods since the winters of 1977 and 1978," Bastardi said.

"The National Weather Service is predicting that Friday the Midwest and
Northeast will have temperatures 8 F to 12 F below normal, with Jan. 27
still showing below normal temperatures for northern New England and with
temperatures near normal for New York City.

"Forecaster Meteorlogix said the five-day outlook for the Northeast shows up
to 12 F below normal by Wednesday and up to 15F below normal by Saturday. In
the same time period, the Midwest will be up to 10 F below normal Wednesday
and up to 4 F below normal on Saturday.

"The six- to 10-day forecast shows "below normal" temperatures for the
Northeast and northern part of the Midwest, Meteorlogix said on Tuesday.

""Overall, these cold air masses are not penetrating that far south," said
Hyde.

Bastardi added that there will be significant snowfall over much of the
Eastern United States in the next three weeks.

"Snow lovers are going to have storms and rumors of storms," Bastardi said.

"This could be one of the top five coldest Januarys in New England, in the
last 50 years anyway," Bastardi said.
