The Great Lakes region will get hit with another snowstorm next week after getting blasted by a lake-effect storm this holiday weekend.

From Minnesota to Texas, temperatures were expected to drop by double-digits as cold air swept over the record-warm Great Lakes, bringing the season's first lake effect snowfall. Common in the winter in this region of the US and Canada, lake effect snow occurs when very cold air moves across the relatively warm water of the lakes.

The lake-effect storm disrupted holiday plans and travel across the region. National Guard troops were dispatched in New York and Pennsylvania.
