A major, disruptive winter storm was sweeping across the central U.S. on Sunday, forecasters said, bringing with it a dreaded combination of snow, ice and plunging temperatures. The National Weather Service issued winter storm warnings from Kansas and Missouri — where blizzard conditions are expected — to New Jersey.

Heavy snow and frigid temperatures are expected to impact more than 60 million across the country this weekend. NBC's Angie Lassman tracks the forecast.
