At 900 PM EST...A broad trough of low pressure extended across the
Great Lakes region, and strong Arctic high pressure to the west
over the northern Plains was beginning to nudge east into the
Upper Midwest. West-northwesterly winds were blowing across the
lakes and producing moderate to heavy lake effect snow over
downwind areas. National Weather Service Doppler Radar indicated
lake effect snow bands on the southern and eastern sides of each
Great Lake, with less organization than in previous days.

Lake effect snow is forecast to continue in the Great Lakes
tonight, then long-awaited relief is expected on Tuesday as high
pressure approaches the region and winds become southwesterly.
Lake effect snow will still be possible, but favored locations
will be on the northeastern sides of the lakes instead of the hard
hit southeastern sides. Travel conditions will improve but may
still be hazardous in locations that received multiple feet of
snow.

The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 1000 AM EST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
