Hurricane Ian is set to make landfall in Western Florida on Wed as a major hurricane. As this storm slowly moves north, it will bring heavy rains & gusty winds to the Southern Appalachians Fri to Mon. The West has been very warm recently, but a slow-moving storm will bring showers, t-storms, & a little bit of high elevation snow to the PNW & Rockies over the next several days.
