...Washington Cascades to Northern Rockies...
Day 1...

Shortwave trough and associated cold front crosses the Cascades by
this evening with snow rates declining as snow levels fall from
3000ft to 1000ft. Day 1 snow probs for >4" are generally 30-60%
above about 3500ft.

Additional snow shifts east tonight through Thursday over the
Lewis Range in Glacier NP, the Bitterroots, Red Lodge portion of
the northern Absarokas in MT and the Bighorns. Day 1 snow probs are
30-50% across these areas of terrain.


...Northern Maine...
Day 1...

Weak low pressure over northern MI this afternoon strengthens as it
shifts across Maine on Thursday. WAA ahead of the low brings snow
to Maine late tonight/Thursday morning. Day 1 snow probs for >4"
are limited to far northern NH and the highest elevations and
northern border of Maine and generally 20-40%.


...Northern Plains and Upper Midwest...
Days 1 and 3...

A tight baroclinic zone develops tonight in zonal flow as low
pressure over the central Plains is met by strong high pressure
shifting from the Canadian Prairies. A wintry mix with generally
light rates develops along this boundary. Day 1 ice probs for
>0.01" ice are 30-60% over eastern ND and across northern WI to
Upper MI, mainly falling late tonight through Thursday morning.
Little snow accum is expected.

High pressure shifting from the northern Plains to the Midwest
Friday through Saturday promotes some LES to develop off Lake
Superior on NW flow. Day 3 snow probs for >4" are 30-50% over the
eastern U.P.


The chances for significant icing across the CONUS is less than
10%.
