Everyone makes the same joke about weather forecast maps showing the odd winter storm

Meteorologists are tracking a winter storm that will hit a 900-mile swath of the United States this week, and a map of its impact has everyone cracking the same joke.

The AccuWeather forecast map shows the pink, phallic-shaped storm blowing across states from Kansas to Virginia.

‘Looks like much of the country is really catching on,’ wrote one X user.

“If it’s the size when it’s cold, I’d hate to see what warm weather brings,” joked another.

Some compared the card to a female sex toy and called it ‘the great blizzard of 2025’.

Meteorologists are predicting heavy snowfall from much of Nebraska to southern and central Ohio and West Virginia, with three to six inches of accumulation.

Heavier snowfall totals of six to 12 inches — and possibly more in some areas — will include much of the Interstate 70 corridor from northern Kansas and southeastern Nebraska to southern Ohio.

“In other words, here comes the white stuff,” another X user commented.

The storm is shaping up to be the first widespread cross-country winter storm of the season for the central and eastern United States, AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Alex Sosnowski reported.

He predicts that it will ‘negatively affect travel in the final days of the holiday break.’

But despite this poor prognosis, social media users have found a way to make light of the circumstances.

Some have even added their own artistic touches to the card, emphasizing its suggestive features.

Hundreds more have responded with rants about the storm’s all-too-familiar shape and color.

“It’s coming, make sure you have proper protection,” joked one X user.

“Looks like it’s going to be a piercing cold,” wrote another.

Others shared hilariously accurate reaction memes.

Several major cities in the path of the storm are expecting several inches of snow, including Topeka, Kansas; St. Louis and Kansas City, Missouri; Springfield, Illinois; Indianapolis and Cincinnati and Dayton, Ohio.

The maximum snowfall could be up to 30 inches somewhere from northern Missouri to west central Illinois to northeastern Kansas.

But snow isn’t all America’s Heartland has to worry about this weekend.

A destructive ice storm could hit southeastern Kansas to southern Missouri, southern Illinois and southern and central Kentucky, Sosnowski reported.

‘A strong ice glaze can knock down many trees and power lines that can block roads. Power could be out for days at a time in some communities as dangerously cold air invades in the wake of the storm,’ he said.

‘There may be a great need for crisis centers to be set up to cater for the population that may be affected.’

As the storm reaches the Appalachian Mountains and the Atlantic coast, major cities including New York City, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Baltimore will be in the way.

Icy conditions could extend into parts of North Carolina, eastern Tennessee and southern parts of Virginia, potentially affecting the cities of Richmond, Virginia; Chattanooga, Tennessee; and Raleigh, North Carolina.

Travel is likely to be dangerous in these areas.

Even as millions across the central and eastern United States prepare for potentially dangerous winter weather, we can always count on the internet to ‘spark’ some humor.
