Many will be waking up to a white President's Day across the region after heavy snow moved through during the overnight. While some snow (heaviest in the morning) will continue across New England to as far south as New York City, much of the precipitation will be over for inland areas as drier air pushes in. Accumulations today will fall within the 3- to 6- inch range, although some isolated spots could see higher amounts. A few rain showers are possible to the south across the Mid-Atlantic where the trailing front will remain parked. Highs will range from the 20s across Northern New England to the upper 50s across the Mid-Atlantic.

West

Another round of heavy coastal/valley rain and deep mountain snow is underway across Southern California as more Pacific energy moves inland. This will only continue the threat of flooding, mudslides and debris-flows across the region. Several inches of rain are possible with more than a foot of snow in the mountains. Snow levels will fall across Southern California to as low as 4,500 feet by tonight and remain around 5,000 to 6,000 feet across the Sierra. Meanwhile, the Northwest will be dry as a ridge of high pressure controls the weather. Highs will range from the 50s across the Pacific Northwest to the 60s across the Southwest. Highs in the 40s will be common across the Great Basin.

South

More wet weather is in store across the Southeast as a stalled front interacts with an active southern branch of the jet stream. An upper-level disturbance may continue to trigger a few severe storms across parts of Arkansas, western Tennessee and northern Mississippi early on. Meanwhile, drier weather should build in across the Southern Plains today. Highs will range from the 60s across the Carolinas and Georgia to the 70s across Texas and along the Gulf Coast.

Midwest

Other than some snow showers across the Great Lakes and some rain showers across the central Plains, most of the region will be dry today. Highs will range from the upper teens in the northern Red River Valley to the 50s from the central Plains to the Ohio Valley.
