The low pressure system in southern Ontario will continue to
weaken as it propagates northeastward toward the Atlantic. An
Arctic airmass remains over the Central and Southern Great Plains,
bringing frigid air to these regions. Wind chill values as low as
-30F to -40F are expected for the next few days. Meanwhile,
another system in the Great Basin will continue bringing heavy
snowfall across the higher elevations of the western states,
including the Sierra Nevada range, the Oregon Cascades, and higher
elevations of the Northern and Central Rockies in addition to the
higher elevations of the Central Great Basin through Wednesday.
The Sierra Nevada range can expect snow totals of up to 6 feet
through Wednesday morning, while portions of the Intermountain
West and Northern and Central Rockies will pickup an additional 6
to 12 inches through Friday. The western system will bring
eventually move west and will deliver 6 to 12 inches of snow to
the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes regions through Friday. Ice
accumulations of up to a quarter of an inch are likely across the
Middle Mississippi Valley, Ohio Valley and Great Lakes regions.
The next storm summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 700 AM PST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
