The January 8–13, 2011 nor'easter was a major Mid-Atlantic nor'easter that affected portions of the Northeastern and Southeastern regions of the United States. This storm came just two weeks after a previous major blizzard severely affected most of these same areas in December 2010. It was the second significant snowstorm to affect the region during the 2010–11 North American winter storm season.
