SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK:
Today's Severe Weather threat is NON EXISTENT for the Lower 48 ... NO THUNDERSTORMS are in the forecast for the Lower 48 ... NATIONAL FORECAST: Today's outlook has warm and dry conditions dominating the Western half of the Nation and will persist for the remainder of the week ahead with varying threats in the wildfire conditions ongoing across Southern California ... While current winds have weakened some compared to last week's readings, very low relative humidities values will continue to impact the region bringing ELEVATED FIRE DANGER CONDITIONS ... An upper-level disturbance expecting to proceed southward on Thursday will allow for a re-strengthening of the high pressure out in the West and that will bring the gusty Santa Ana Winds back into place along with the low relative humidities levels, that will increase the fire risk to DANGEROUS LEVELS on Thursday across Southern California .... The departure of the coastal low that impacted New England overnight and this morning with a wintry mix, cold and breezy conditions will be left in its wake, especially across the Northeast where highs are expected to struggle to get out of the teens and 20s for locations inland ... In fact, the majority of the Eastern Seaboard will see temperatures of 10 to 15 degrees below normal for Mid December standards, with near 20 degrees below normal across portions of the interior Northeast ... Lake effect snowfall will continue in the downwinds of the Great lakes through Friday, but there will be enough shifting of the wind direction to prevent the majority in the way of heavy snowfall ... A quick-proceeding clipper system is expected to proceed through the Central Great Lakes region for today's forecast bringing accumulating snowfall to portions of Lower Michigan into portions of Ohio and Pennsylvania .. Anywhere from 3 - 6" with locally higher amounts possible and expected in these locations through Thursday AM ... Finally, a weak system is expected to proceed across the Central Plains during the course of the day on Thursday to bring light snow showers, possibly mixing with some rain, but any snow accumlations are expected to be very light for now ...

SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK:
Today's Severe Weather threat is NON EXISTENT for the Lower 48 ... NO THUNDERSTORMS are in the forecast for the Lower 48 ... NATIONAL FORECAST: Today's outlook has a strong ridge of high pressure over the Western portions of the Nation that is expected to gradually weaken and help out with the wildfire situation in Southern California, but will be keeping the warm temperatures in place ... Gusty winds and low relative humidities will continue to pose an ELEVATED FIRE DANGER today, and will diminish in threat for Wednesday .... An area of low pressure is organizing and strengthening over the Lower Great Lakes for today's forecast, dragging a reinforcing cold frontal boundary across the Eastern Seaboard ... Much colder temperatures are expected to filter in behind the frontal boundary for the Eastern portions of the Nation for tonight through Wednesday with highs almost 25 degrees below mid December standards from Florida to the Great Lakes ... Meanwhile, as the low pressure storm center continues to wrap up for tonight into Wednesday morning over New England, moderate snowfall is in the forecast for portions of Upstate New York into the interior New England with a wintry mix expected possible in central Massachusetts to the coastal regions of Maine ... WINTER STORM WARNINGS and WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES are in effect for these locations through Wednesday AM given the anticipation of deteriorating conditions .... Colder air filtering in behind the strong cold frontal boundary across the Great Lakes will continue to produce lake enhancement snow showers with the greatest snowfall accumulations through Thursday across Southwestern Lower Michigan and east of Lake Eries and Ontario where local totals will be over a foot in some spots ... Finally, the north-central portions of the Nation and the Upper Mississippi Valley is expected to see a series of weak clipper systems proceeding the region for tonight and Wednesday PM ... In advance of the first clipper, downslope winds will generate high temperatures across the Central and Northern High Plains in the 50s and 60s, well above average for mid December standards ... Colder temperatures will reside farther North and East in this pattern with the clipper systems generating light snow showers or a wintry mix across the Eastern Dakotas into Minnesota, but any accumulations are expected to be generally an inch or less ...

However, dry conditions with above normal temperatures will continue across a majority of the Western / Southwestern portions of the Nation into the Central Great Plains ... Strong, gusty Santa Ana winds continues in Southern California and while winds are gusting, they are expected to finally weaken by midweek, ELEVATED FIRE DANGERS continues for another couple days in Southern California as well ... A clipper system is proceeding to track from the Upper Mississippi Valley into the Great Lakes for today and tonight's forecast bringing some light snow showers and a renewed surge of colder air ... High temperatures for the forecast on Tuesday are only to be in the teens in Wisconsin and lower Michigan which is almost 20 degrees below average for mid December ... In addition, northwesterly winds in the wake of the clipper system will set up for heavy lake enhanced snowfall for the downwinds of Lakes Superior and Michigan ... Finally, as the storm system proceed into the Northeast on Tuesday, light to moderate snowfall will overspread upstate New York into the interior portions of New England for the early afternoon ... The surface low is expected to strengthen into Tuesday PM as it proceeds to track through Maine ...

Today's Severe Weather threat is NON EXISTENT for the Lower 48 ... NO THUNDERSTORMS are in the forecast for the Lower 48 ... NATIONAL FORECAST: Today's outlook relatively quiet weather for the majority of the Nation as a winter storm system is finally proceeding away from the Northeast, this morning ... A quick proceeding and moisture starved upper-level disturbance is bringing an opportunity for a few light snow showers to the Northeast for today and tonight's forecast, but the greatest snowfall accumulations will be EAST of Lakes Erie and Ontario due to lake enhancement where local accumulations up to a FOOT in the forecast through Monday ... Be on Alert! Heavy lake enhanced snowfall will also be a possibility across the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for Monday Night into Tuesday behind an quick proceeding Alberta Clipper system .. This Clipper system is expected to drop a quick one to as much as three inches , to Northern Minnesota and Wisconsin by Monday afternoon ... Temperatures along the Eastern Seaboard are expected to remain BELOW normal up to 20 degrees below mid December standards with some moderation possible for Monday's forecast ... Majority of the Plains will remain above normal up to 30 degrees through Monday with westerly to northwesterly downslope winds at the surface ... Winds will be gusty at times, especially for Monday after the passage of a cold frontal boundary tied to the aforementioned clipper system ... These winds will generate drier conditions leading to an ELEVATED FIRE RISK extending into Central and Southern High Plains through Monday's forecast ... Be aware of this factor ... Finally, the greater risk of wildfires are continuing across Southern California through, where CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS continue through at least Monday giving the strong forecast of Santa Ana winds and very low relative humidities ....

This morning, currently, a broad axis of precipitation was located North of the strong frontal boundary from Southern Texas to the Central Gulf Coastal Region and the Carolinas ... Majority of this precipitation was falling as a cold rain, but rare accumulating snowfall was occurring over portions of Southern and Southeastern Texas ... As the colder air continues to filter into the northern edges of the precipitation shield, a changeover to snowfall is also expected into the Central / Southern Appalachians as well as the Mid-Atlantic and into the Northeast ... Some heavier accumulations in the forecast range of 3 to as much as 6" are expected in the higher terrain of the Southern Appalachians and across New England as the surface low is expected to strengthen late Saturday up the Eastern Seaboard ...
