Temperatures are predicted to fall to zero or below this Valentine's weekend in the eastern half of the US. For more than 50 million people from Maine to North Dakota to Virginia, it will be the coldest stretch so far this winter, the Weather Channel reported. Luckily, the worst of the cold won't reach Florida, leaving the state's citrus crop out of harm's way.
Forecast low temperatures on Valentine's Day could set records in several major cities, including Boston, Hartford, Conn., New York and Philadelphia. With the exception of the Great Lakes regions, little accumulating snow will accompany the cold blast.
While the East shivers, the West will bake in warmer weather from the Pacific Northwest to California and Arizona, according to the National Weather Service. Temperatures will soar into the 70s and 80s in California and Arizona.
Even the mountains of northern Georgia will feel the chill as temperatures are forecast to drop to as low as 10 degrees there Sunday morning.
