THIS LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST NORTHEAST
TOWARDS THE OHIO VALLEY BY SUNDAY NIGHT...MOVING INTO THE SOUTHERN
GREAT LAKES REGION BY MONDAY MORNING. HEAVY SNOW ACCUMULATIONS
REMAIN A POSSIBILITY IN THE COLD AIR ALONG AND TO THE NORTH OF THE
SURFACE LOW. A GRADUAL WEAKENING OF THE SYSTEM...ALONG WITH A LACK
OF SUBSTANTIALLY COLD AIR IN THE MIDWEST...SHOULD RESULT IN LOWER
SNOW ACCUMULATIONS THAN THOSE SEEN IN THE PLAINS.

THE NEXT STORM SUMMARY WILL BE ISSUED BY THE HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL
PREDICTION CENTER AT 400 PM CDT. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS
EVENT.
