The coronavirus pandemic has brought student storm-chasing trips to a halt over the past year for SUNY Oswego in New York state, but some professors are carrying on the tradition of following storms through the Plains, and AccuWeather's Lincoln Riddle was there to ride along with them and experience storm chasing firsthand. Scott Steiger, professor of meteorology at SUNY Oswego, has been leading student trips to the Plains every spring since.
With spring here, hikers may be excited to head to the backcountry, but as Lincoln Riddle reports, now may not be the best time to get out onto the trails.

The first Americans will receive the coronavirus vaccine this week. As AccuWeather s Lincoln Riddle reports, the vaccine has to be kept at temperatures that rival the arctic.
After waiting months and months for the much-anticipated COVID-19 vaccine, initial shipments of the Pfizer vaccine were loaded up and sent out in delivery trucks over the weekend. But 2020 s latest hurdle is threatening to delay some of those vaccine doses from reaching parts of the United States most populated areas in the Northeast.
AccuWeather forecasters have been warning of a huge snowstorm, the largest in years, that will be coming together and is expected to unload up to a foot or more of wintry precipitation across the eastern U.S. In addition, parts of the Interstate 95 corridor could be slammed with snow, ice, high winds and even blizzard conditions, which could snarl travel and lead to power outages.
