The surface low will continue to consolidate and strengthen today
as it moves northeastward through southern Ontario. This low and
the associated upper-level trough will help create heavy snow for
the northern tier of the U.S., with the Upper Midwest seeing 6 to
10 inches of additional snow and parts of the Northern
Appalachians getting up to a foot and a half of snow. Mixed
precipitation is likely farther south in the major cities of
Philadelphia, New York City, and Boston. A large swath of
accumulating freezing rain is also possible from parts of the
Great Lakes, northern Mid-Atlantic, and southern New England. The
highest freezing rain totals of a quarter to half of an inch of
ice are currently expected for parts of Pennsylvania, New York and
Maryland. Farther south, heavy rain is likely to continue in the
Tennessee and Ohio Valleys and into the Southern Appalachians,
which will lead to flooding concerns Tuesday into Tuesday evening.

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