In the Sierras, snow accumulations of 6 to 12 inches are possible and the Southern California Mountains will pick-up 4 to 8 inches of snow. The Northern Rockies and the Four Corners States will see a few rain and snow showers. Midwest: A cold front draped from the Great Lakes to the Southwest will produce showers and thunderstorms from the Mississippi Valley to the Ohio Valley. Rainfall may exceed 1 inch today and localized flooding is possible in the heaviest downpours. Snow showers are possible over the Great Lakes region. Behind the front, temperatures will be 5 to 15 degrees below average. South: The cold front will produce scattered showers and thunderstorms along and ahead of the front from eastern Texas to the Tennessee Valley. A few of the thunderstorms may become severe with gusty winds and hail from central Texas to Arkansas. Ahead of the front, most of the region will have temperatures running 5 to 15 degrees above average. Behind the front, temperatures will be some 10 degrees below average.

Tropical Weather Outlook Atlantic / Caribbean / Gulf Area 1 The low pressure system located over the central Atlantic Ocean about 650 miles northeast of the Leeward Islands has become a little better defined. Although shower and thunderstorm activity remains poorly organized with continued development of this disturbance is possible during the next couple of days as it moves slowly northward into a region of more favorable Upper-level Winds. This system has a medium chance (40) percent of becoming a subtropical or tropical cyclone during the next 48 hours.Eastern Pacific Area 1 Tropical Depression 13E At 4:00 am EST the center of Tropical Depression Thirteen-E was located about 515 mi SSW of Acapulco, Mexico. The depression is moving toward the west near 14 mph and a general motion toward the west or west-northwest is expected during the next couple of days. Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph with higher gusts. Strengthening is expected during the next 48 hours and the depression should become a tropical storm later today.
