lingers over south Florida...

Northeast/northern New England through Tuesday...

...Strong cold front brings much colder temperatures to the Eastern U.S....

...Unsettled weather continues over the Northwest...


A low pressure system responsible for severe weather and excessive
rainfall across the Midwest over the past several days will produce some
final showers and thunderstorms along the East Coast tonight before moving
off into the Atlantic. The southern portion of the attendant cold front
will hang up over south Florida and generate scattered thunderstorm
activity across the region through Tuesday. Temperatures will drop well
below average over the eastern half of the country compounding issues
posed by flooding over parts of the Ohio Valley tonight and Tuesday night,
when overnight minimums may drop below freezing. Highs in the 30s and 40s
will represent a 20-30 degree departure from average for much of the Ohio
Valley, interior Northeast and Central Appalachians.

A secondary system will produce snow showers downwind of the Great Lakes
through Tuesday. The heaviest snow should accumulate over interior
portions of the Northeast (downwind of Lake Ontario, Adirondacks, northern
New England) where 4-8 inches of snow are expected. A series of systems
will continue to bring unsettled weather to the Northwest through early
Wednesday morning. Low elevation rain, isolated thunderstorms and high
elevation snow showers are likely.
