A vast and restless atmospheric system swept across the United States on Sunday, reminding a sprawling nation that weather respects no borders and no timetable. From blizzard-locked highways in Minnesota to wildfire winds on the Plains, and with tornadoes still gathering force toward the Eastern seaboard, the storm embodied the way a single disturbance can fracture into many distinct dangers. For millions of Americans — from the already-buried Midwest to the bracing mid-Atlantic — the question was not whether the storm had arrived, but what form it would take when it did.
