January 14–17, 2022 North American winter storm

Summary

In mid-January 2022, a significant winter storm, unofficially referred to as Winter Storm Izzy by The Weather Channel and described as a "Saskatchewan Screamer", brought widespread impacts and wintry precipitation across large sections of eastern North America and parts of Canada. Forming out of a shortwave trough on January 13, it first produced a swath of snowfall extending from the High Plains to the Midwestern United States. The storm eventually pivoted east and impacted much of the Southern United States from January 15–16 before shifting north into Central Canada, the Mid-Atlantic states, and the Northeastern United States.
