A surge of chilly air will move from the Great Lakes to the interior Northeast on Tuesday. Rain and wet snow showers are expected to accompany the colder air around the Great Lakes along with rain showers farther east. The cold air will spread east at night, bringing snow showers. Heavier snow will develop from northeastern New York to northern Maine Tuesday night into early Wednesday. Some parts of northern New England may receive 6 to 12 inches of snow from the storm.

Dry air will extend from the northern Plains to the middle Mississippi Valley and the Mid-Atlantic Coast. Temperatures across the area will be below normal.

Rain and flooding are projected to extend from central and coastal Texas to the upper Gulf Coast. This moisture will be joined by tropical moisture from Hurricane Willa and Tropical Storm Vicente during the middle to latter part of the week, which will increase the risk of flooding. Showers and thunderstorms will occur in the central and southern Rockies. Pockets of heavy rain may fall in this area.

Much of the rest of the West can expect a dry day with sunshine. Clouds will increase later in the day across coastal Washington and Oregon.

FOCUS: Tropical Moisture To Move Into the Southeast

Moisture from Hurricane Willa now moving into Mexico will spread east along the Gulf Coast during the rest of this week. This will result in heavy downpours and flooding in spots. Moisture from the storm will also push into the southern Rockies, with downpours.
