The low pressure center will continue moving northeastward through
southern Ontario and Quebec tonight before pulling away on Monday,
so snowfall associated with the low will end by Monday. Light
snows of 1 to 4 inches are forecast downwind of the Great Lakes on
Monday in the lingering cold air. The front will be slow-moving
across the central and eastern Gulf Coast through Monday, so rain
is forecast to continue in parts of the Southeast. An additional 2
to 4 inches of rain is possible, with locally higher amounts when
storms train over the same locations.
The next storm summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 300 AM CST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
