CONUS — From February 4th to February 6th, we'll see a mix of weather beginning with a low pressure system bringing rain and thunderstorms to the Southeast, while light snow will fall in the Mid-Atlantic. By Thursday, expect warmer weather in the Northern Plains with snow in the Great Lakes by Friday. Arctic air is moving back into the Eastern U.S., so bundle up!
Rain and Thunderstorms in the South and Southeast
Today, a low pressure system is causing showers and thunderstorms in the South, moving through the Southeast by tonight. Watch for organized thunderstorms near the Gulf Coast as they move east across the region.
Light Snow in the Mid-Atlantic
This morning, the Mid-Atlantic will see a period of light snow, which should taper off by daybreak. Later today, expect another round of light snow and wintry mix across North Carolina as the system continues its journey.
Snow Heading to the Great Lakes
On Thursday, light snow will move into the Great Lakes with snow showers and possibly some intense snow squalls by early Friday, thanks to a weather clipper from Canada. Watch for snow in the Upper Great Lakes as the arctic air makes its presence known.
Arctic Chill Returns to the East
By Thursday, clear skies will bring chilly temperatures in the single digits and teens from the Ohio Valley to the Northeast. The cold air will reach the Florida Panhandle by Friday morning, with temperatures dropping to the 30s and 40s.
Warm and Dry in the West
The Western U.S. will remain dry and warmer than usual this week. In the Northern High Plains, temperatures will rise today, spreading east to the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest over the next few days as a clipper system moves through Central Canada.
