PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Colder weather began to return Thursday after a storm that swept up the East Coast delivered a blow to New England, packing powerful gusts that knocked out power along with a deluge of rain and warming temperatures that washed away snow and dampened ski resorts.

Hazardous weather will stretch up and down the Eastern Seaboard on Wednesday. Here’s where to expect the worst.

Maine reported nearly 57,000 power outages, while Massachusetts saw nearly 8,000 customers left without electricity.

It's been a quiet start to December in Northern California, but that trend comes to an end Wednesday as multiple storm systems move in.

A wintry mix on the backside of our latest rainstorm will leave behind some minor accumulations in the mountains. However, it's the lake effect snow band in the North Country that will be a prolific producer of fresh powder for Thursday.
