Weather: Much of the northeastern states should remain pretty quiet with some scattered clouds and sun around. There may be SOME leftover snow showers up in the Adirondacks of Upstate New York, so keep that in mind. Otherwise, the major interstates within the northeast should remain travel delay free along with the airports.
Temperatures: Temperatures will top out into the low 40s across most of the states with some 30s in the higher elevations.
Southeast:
Weather: High pressure will mainly dominate across much of the Southeastern states and the I-95 corridor with no major travel delays expected.
Temperatures: Look for high temperatures into the 60s and 70s from the Carolinas southward and westward into Georgia, Alabama Mississippi, etc. Portions of Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, and West Virginia will see 40s and 50s. Portions of central and southern Florida could see highs nearing 80.
Midwest:
Weather: Starting with the brief snow showers in North Dakota, these will generally be light during the morning hours and moving out by the afternoon. Not expecting much in the way of accumulation with maybe an inch or two expected. This could cause minor travel delays, but nothing crazy. Otherwise, most of the day will remain generally cloudy along portions of the northern midwestern states and no major travel delays are expected. It won’t be till later this evening that some rain with some snow mixing in will develop across portions of Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio moving eastward overnight. This shouldn’t affect much in the way of travel as only light rainfall is expected.
Temperatures: Expect mainly 30s and 40s across much of the region with the 30s being more in Minnesota, Michigan and Wisconsin. North and South Dakota will only see temperatures in the teens and 20s.
Southwest:
Weather: Fair weather continues across most of the southwestern states including Texas, central & southern New Mexico, and central & southern Arizona. No travel delays expected across those regions. In northern New Mexico and northern Arizona we could see some rain and snow showers lingering through the day which could cause some minor travel delays especially within the higher elevations.
Temperatures: Texas will see 70s and 80s mainly across the state with some 40s across portions of the northern Texas Panhandle. New Mexico and Arizona will see 60s and 70s across the lower elevations with some 30s, 40s, and 50s as you go up in elevation mainly across the northern portions of those states.
West:
Weather: The western states are looking much better especially along the major interstates. California will likely see some sunshine across most of the state with some fair weather clouds. Portions of Oregon and Washington State will see mainly dry conditions with a mix of sun and clouds. The more problematic weather will occur across portions of the Rocky Mountains in Utah and Colorado where we are expecting decent snowfall within the higher elevations and rain showers within the lower elevations where temperatures won’t reach freezing range. Denver could see a few inches of snow possible. This may create some travel delays across the regions impacted by this snowfall so make sure you plan ahead if traveling to these areas.
Temperatures: Higher elevations throughout the region will see temperatures into the 20s and 30s throughout today with the lower elevations only topping out into the 40s. Central & northern California will top out in the 40s and 50s with 20s and 30s in the higher elevations. Southern California including Los Angeles and San Diego will top out into the 60s.
