It may be spring, but a blast of winter weather is on a cross-country trip this week.

The National Weather Service's (NWS) Weather Prediction Center said a swath of snow will impact regions from the Rockies to the Northeast from Thursday into Friday.

"A narrow streak of heavy accumulating snow is possible from the Central Plains into the Lower Great Lakes and Interior Northeast, after leaving the Central Rockies and Denver metro area," forecasters said.

According to the WPC, heavy snow is in the forecast for the central Rockies, where between 8 and 18 inches of fresh snow may fall across northern Colorado.

As the system moves east over the Central Plains, a band of "light to moderate wet snow" is in the forecast from Nebraska to the Northeast by Friday night, and into New England in the overnight hours.
