The low pressure system in the Upper Midwest will continue to
weaken as it propagates eastward toward the Atlantic. An Arctic
cold front will continue descending southward through the Central
and Southern Great Plains, bringing frigid air to these regions.
Moderate snowfall will continue across western Montana and
northern Minnesota through Monday evening. Expect additional
snowfall amounts to range between 2 and 4 inches with locally
higher amounts. Freezing rain mixing with sleet and snow will
continue spreading east into parts of the Upper Midwest and the
Upper Great Lakes, with ice totals of up to a half of an inch
possible through Monday evening. Wind chill values as low as -30F
to -40F are expected throughout the norther Plains and Upper
Midwest. Meanwhile, another digging trough off the West Coast 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 for the next few days. The Sierra Nevada range can expect
snow totals of up to 6 feet through Monday evening, while portions
of the Intermountain West and Central Rockies will pickup an
additional 1 to 2 feet. 

The next storm summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 700 PM PST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
