At 800 AM CST...A complex surface pattern continued to be analyzed
across the eastern U.S. with two frontal boundaries extended along
the coastline. The leading front had continued to push offshore
into the Atlantic Ocean connected to a surface low that was
analyzed with a central pressure of 997mb or 29.44 inches of
mercury. A cold front extended south from this surface low back
towards the Chesapeake Bay, while a warm front stretched eastward
into the Atlantic. A second frontal boundary was analyzed behind
the leading front, located from the Louisiana shoreline through
the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic before connecting to a surface low
analyzed over central Pennsylvania. A stationary front extended
northward from this low, into interior New England and offshore
into New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. RADAR and surface observations
indicated areas of light to moderate snow falling north of the
frontal boundary from western Michigan through northern New York,
Vermont and Maine. A thin area of a wintry mix was also observed
in interior portions of New England, south of the broad swath of
snow. Further south, widespread showers and thunderstorms
continued along the frontal boundary from the Southeast into the
Mid-Atlantic.

The snow in the Interior Northeast will continue through the day
Sunday before winding down from west to east during the late
afternoon to evening hours. Snowfall totals will range from 3-6
inches, with the highest amounts in the higher terrain of northern
New York, Vermont, and New Hampshire and lighter amounts for
eastern Maine. Further south, the flood threat will continue for
portions of the Southeast ahead of the frontal boundary pushing
southeastward, with the greatest threat located in central North
Carolina where a Slight Risk of Excessive Rainfall remains in
effect through Sunday night. Forecast rainfall totals generally
range between 1-3 inches. A light wintry mix is also likely from
the Mid-Atlantic through the southern Appalachians and into the
Tennessee Valley behind the cold front. In addition to the rain
and snow, bitterly cold air is expected to impact the Plains and
Midwest through Sunday morning, before temperatures rebound during
the afternoon hours.

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.
