A storm has been pounding the Northeast all day, and it is only going to get worse. This is the second winter storm to hit the region in less than a week.
Mace Michael is a meteorologist at Weather Nation, and he joins Cheddar to explain what more to expect from this storm. Michael explains that even though the storm has been raging all day, it is only going to get worse for most of Northern NJ and PA.
