West:
The barrage of powerful storms entering the West Coast had ended and weather conditions will finally improve over California and the Southwest. The ongoing cleanup from the flooding, mudslides and feet of snow will continue, however.
Meanwhile, parts of the northern Rockies, especially Montana and western Wyoming, will see pockets of heavy snow on Saturday.
Saturday highs will range from the 20s in Montana to the 50s and lower 60s in the lower elevations of Southern California and southern Arizona.
The break for the West Coast will not last long as another storm approaches the West Coast from the Pacific.
Rain and mountain snow will be back along the northern half of California.
Showers and interior snow will shift through the West on Tuesday, while rain showers work their way back into Southern California.
Midwest:
As a storm system rides eastward from the central Plains to the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley this weekend, wintry precipitation will fall across the northern Plains and Upper Midwest.
Look for some combination of snow, sleet and freezing rain in the Upper Midwest and light snow in the Dakotas Saturday.
Increasing snow and wind on Sunday will result in near blizzard conditions.
Elsewhere, rain and thunderstorms can be expected from the mid-Mississippi Valley, into Michigan and the Ohio Valley.
Saturday highs will range from the 20s and lower 30s in the Dakotas to the 50s in the Ohio Valley.
Sunday will feature a wintry mix from the upper Mississippi Valley to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Rain will fall from eastern Missouri to the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley.
A blast of much colder air will sweep through the Upper Midwest to the Great Lakes on Monday. Lake-effect snow will develop south and southeast of Lakes Superior and Michigan. Lighter snow showers will fall west of the Great Lakes back to the Dakotas.
Lake-effect snow squalls and snow showers will linger over Michigan, northern Ohio and the eastern Ohio Valley on Tuesday.
South:
A potent cold front, stemming from a low pressure to the north, will sweep through the South this weekend.
Rain and thunderstorms will be on the increase ahead of the cold front. A few of the thunderstorms could be severe in the lower Mississippi Valley Saturday and from North Carolina to northern Florida Sunday. Some locations from the Florida Panhandle to the southern Appalachians may see from one to three inches of rain on Sunday.
Saturday highs will range from the 40s and 50s in the Carolinas to the 70s around the Gulf and a few low 80s in extreme southern Texas.
Sunday temperatures will be relatively mild with highs will ranging from the 50s in Oklahoma and west Texas to the 70s and lower 80s across the low country of South Carolina, southern Georgia and the Florida Peninsula.
Monday will be mainly dry except for showers along the Southeast Coast and over the Florida Peninsula.
Northeast:
Some of the best weather across the nation will be found across the Northeast on Saturday. The region will be dry and temperatures will be near to slightly above seasonal averages.
Saturday highs will range from near 20 in northern Maine to near 50 in southwest West Virginia.
Conditions will go downhill fast on Sunday as rain races up from the South. Some river valley areas over eastern New York and Northern New England may see a brief period of freezing rain before changing over to rain.
Rain and wind will increase across New England Sunday night into Monday. Conditions will improve by late Monday, except for Maine where rain will hang on. Much of the snow on the ground right now will also disappear.
The recent thaw will end by Monday night and Tuesday as colder air sweeps into the region.
By Tuesday night and Wednesday, lake-effect snow will be flying south and southeast of Lakes Erie and Ontario.
