The phrase “where will the storm hit” is too broad to answer precisely without details like the storm’s name, date, or your region, and different storms are being discussed in the news right now.

What “the storm” could mean

  • In January 2026, there have been notable storms in several regions, including severe events in New Zealand and winter storms affecting the UK and parts of Europe.
  • U.S. media are also tracking a winter storm expected to bring snow, ice, and freezing rain across parts of the country around late January 2026.

How to find where it will hit

  • Check your national meteorological service (for example, Met Office in the UK, NOAA/NWS in the U.S., or your country’s official weather agency) and its warning maps. These will show the exact areas under alerts in the next 24–72 hours.
  • Look at reliable news outlets’ interactive storm maps for “today” and “this weekend” – these usually show bands of snow, rain, and ice hour by hour and by region.

Safety-first advice

  • If you see your city or region inside a warning zone (especially for red or orange alerts), avoid non‑essential travel, secure loose outdoor items, and prepare for possible power outages.
  • Follow local emergency management or civil defense social channels and radio/TV updates, as they will refine exactly where landfall or the worst impacts are expected within your country or state.

What you can do next

Because forecasts and impacts are highly location‑specific, the best way to get a clear answer is to share:

  • Your country/region and nearest major city
  • The storm name (if you know it) and the day you’re asking about

With that, a much more precise explanation of “where the storm will hit” for you personally can be given.
