THIS LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EASTWARD THROUGH
THE OHIO VALLEY TONIGHT AND IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE SOUTHERN
GREAT LAKES REGION BY MONDAY MORNING. HEAVY SNOW ACCUMULATIONS
REMAIN A POSSIBILITY 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 LESSER
SNOW ACCUMULATIONS THAN THOSE SEEN IN THE PLAINS.

THE NEXT STORM SUMMARY WILL BE ISSUED BY THE HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL
PREDICTION CENTER AT 1000 PM CDT. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS
EVENT.
