On Wednesday, December 4th, an area of low pressure started to develop along an old frontal boundary that snaked across the northwest Gulf of Mexico and the Gulf coast states.  Meanwhile, high pressure stretched from the northern plains, across the Great Lakes, to the Mid-Atlantic coast.  This high pressure locked in the cold air across the northeast.  That night, the developing storm moved across the southeastern states to the North Carolina coast.  On the morning of Thursday, December 5th, as the storm started to move off the coast near Cape Hatteras flurries and light snow started to move into southwest Connecticut. By late morning, snow had started to fall across southeast Connecticut, and bands of moderate to heavy snow had started to move across southwest Connecticut. By noon, a moderate to, at times, heavy snow had spread across the entire southern half of the state. The steady, moderate to heavy snow continued through the afternoon, and into the early evening, falling at times at rates over an inch per hour.  As the storm sped off toward the North Atlantic waters, the heavy snow began to taper off to light snow around 5 pm over southwest Connecticut, and around 6:30 pm over southeast Connecticut.  By this time, an average of 5 to 8 inches had fallen across the southern half of Connecticut.  As moisture continued to "wrap around" the storm, light snow continued to fall through the evening before tapering off to flurries and finally ending by midnight.  Final snowfall accumulations ranged from 6 to 10 inches across the southern half of Connecticut.

With temperatures in the middle 20's, the light snow immediately stuck to area roads as it started to fall around 6 am creating very slick conditions.

Traffic in the St. Louis Metropolitan area crawled along throughout the day. Area school busses were running up to 2 hours late in getting children to school.  In some areas, accident reports were coming in at the rate of 30 to 40 an hour. Snowfall across the region ranged from 2 to 5 inches.

On Tuesday, December 24th, an area of low pressure began to develop over the Gulf coast states. That night, the storm intensified as it moved northeast, reaching the Virginia coastline by daybreak on December 25th. Around this time, spotty drizzle and light rain along with a few pockets of light freezing rain began to overspread northeast New Jersey. As the morning progressed, the center of low pressure started to track northeast over the Atlantic along a path that hugged the coast. As a result, a steady rain began to fall over northeast New Jersey, and all of the freezing rain and drizzle changed over to plain rain. Early that afternoon, the rain began to change to snow from west to east across the region, as the storm started to move east of the tri-state area allowing the winds to shift to the north. By 3 pm, the entire area had changed over to all snow. During the late afternoon, narrow bands of heavy snow developed and moved over parts of the region, which accounted for the large ranges of snowfall with this storm. As the center of the storm continued to move northeast away from the area, the snow then tapered off to light snow and flurries during the evening, before ending around midnight. Snowfall amounts over northeast New Jersey ranged from 3 to 4 inches in some spots to as much as 8 to 12 inches in other locations. The heavier snowfall amounts generally occurred away from the urban areas, with the highest amounts over the northern portions of Passaic and Bergen Counties.
