The low pressure system is forecast to continue moving
east-northeast across the lower Great Lakes today while gradually
weakening.  Snow is expected to gradually taper off from west to
east across northern Illinois and lower Michigan where 2 to
locally 4 inches of accumulation can be expected.  By Monday
night, the main energy of the low pressure system will be shifted
to southern New England where a new low pressure center is
forecast to form.  This will bring a good chance of snow across
northern New England on Tuesday with 6 to locally 10 inches
possible especially over the higher elevations.

The next storm summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 900 AM CST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
