A late-season storm ahead for the upper Midwest

Freezing rain will end later Tuesday morning in the southern Mid-Atlantic region, while rain showers will gradually diminish across Florida. Meanwhile, a late-season winter storm will track from the central Plains into eastern Canada. Along and north of the storm’s path, primarily from Wyoming to northern New England, significant snow will fall. Meanwhile, a few rain showers will occur along the storm’s trailing cold front as far south as the Ohio Valley and the Mid-Atlantic States. Elsewhere, a few showers will affect the Northwest, while dry weather will persist from California to the southern Plains.

Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for below-normal temperatures from the Plains to the East Coast, while warmer-than-normal weather will prevail in the West. Meanwhile, near- to above-normal precipitation across the majority of the U.S. will contrast with drier-than-normal conditions from southern California to the southern High Plains.
