The coldest air since early January will trigger additional rounds of lake-effect flurries and squalls to the lee of the Great Lakes. Snowfall in 24 hours can reach a foot where bands of snow are most persistent. Mild air is forecast to hold across the Southern states. Rain showers will dampen areas from coastal and northeastern Texas to central Alabama and northern Georgia. A significant storm will affect the Pacific coast states.

At the White House a day after nominating Gorsuch, Trump endorsed a scenario that would involve major- ity Republicans unilaterally changing Senate rules over the objections of the Demo- cratic minority. It could come into play if Democrats try to block Gor- such's confirmation with a filibuster, as the liberal base is demanding, and would al- low the GOP to confirm Gor- such with a simple majority instead of the 60 votes now needed. Addressing GOP Sen- ate leader Mitch McCon- nell from the White House, Trump said, "If we end up with that gridlock I would say, 'If you can, Mitch, go nuclear.'" He said of Gor- such that it "would be a ab- solute shame if a man of this quality was caught up in the web." Trump made his com- ments as Gorsuch traversed CapitolHill,escortedbyVice President Mike Pence and winning extravagant praise from Republican senators. Democraticdivisionswere on display. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer faced in- tense opposition from base voters to Trump's nominee, while political risks con- fronted a half-dozen Demo- cratic senators representing red states who are up for re- election next year and may feel pressure to support Gor- such. "The president made an outstanding appointment; we'reallthrilledandlooking forwardtogettingtheconfir- mation processstarted,"Mc- Connellsaidashestoodwith asmilingGorsuchinthesen- ator'sceremonialofficeinthe Capitol. McConnell has not said whether he might invoke the nuclear option if minority Democrats block Gorsuch's confirmation, but the Sen- ate leader has said repeat- edlythat,onewayoranother, Gorsuch will be confirmed. Democratsarestillsmart- ing over the treatment of Judge Merrick Garland, former President Barack Obama's nominee to the court after the death of Jus- tice Antonin Scalia a year ago. McConnell never al- lowedevenahearingonGar- land over 10 months, assert- ing that the decision was up to the next president. Now some on the left are demanding payback. "Thisisastolenseatbeing filled by an illegitimate and extreme nominee, and I will do everything in my power to stand up against this as- sault on the court," said Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon. Schumer reiterated Wednesday that Democrats would insist on a 60-vote threshold for Garland in the 100-memberSenate,"notbe- cause they did it to us or we did it to them, but because 60 votes produces a main- stream candidate." But as Schumer and other Demo- crats made clear, for many the fight was less about the mild-mannered 49-year-old appeals court judge than about Trump himself. Schumer said that "this Supreme Court will be tried in ways that few courts have beentestedsincetheearliest days of the Republic."
