Storms that yielded recording-breaking snowfall in the South during the week hit the Northeast on Friday evening and could continue causing problems throughout the weekend. Winter Storm Benji was moving up the East Coast, with heavy snow predicted for a 2,000-mile stretch from the Deep South to New England. The snow will spread in the Northeast during the day and forecasters predicted that by the afternoon, most of Maine to Virginia would experience snow, the Weather Channel reported. By Sunday, some areas in northern New England may experience snow until the storm moves off into eastern Canada. The South saw unprecedented levels of snowfall from Texas to North Carolina, resulting in power outages, frozen roadways and numerous auto accidents.
