...Remaining cold over the eastern U.S. with rain and snow for the
northwestern U.S. states...
The powerful nor'easter that has plagued the northeastern U.S. over the
past two days is now beginning to weaken some and will continue lifting
northward into Canada during the day Wednesday. Interior sections of New
England and upstate New York were hammered with 1 to 2+ feet of snow,
while high winds and heavy rain battered the coastal areas from the
Carolinas to Cape Cod. Some lingering snow showers will be likely across
parts of New England on Wednesday with the low over Quebec.
A fresh surge of arctic air will settle in behind this nor'easter across
much of the Great Lakes, Ohio Valley, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast through
Thursday. An impressive upper level low will cross the region on
Wednesday, and there will be enough instability to generate periods of
snow showers from the Appalachians to the coast. Once this passes, a
large surface high will settle in from the west and allow for sunny to
partly cloudy skies for the end of the week, while still keeping
below-average temperatures in place.
Out West, a Pacific front moving onshore across Washington and Oregon will
bring periods of rain and mountain snow through Thursday, with an
additional area of enhanced precipitation across the northern Rockies.
Given that a warmer weather pattern will be in place, expect snow levels
to be higher. Flood watches and advisories are in effect for parts of
this region owing to snow melt from the rain and warmer temperatures. It
will continue to stay warm and dry across the Desert Southwest through the
end of the week.
