NATIONAL SUMMARY

A potent storm for the East will begin to take shape today,

bringing an area of snow from Nebraska into Kansas, with

rain mixing in across western Missouri. Rain will also fall

from eastern Oklahoma through Mississippi, with embedded

thunderstorms from the Texas coast through Louisiana. At the

same time, another storm and associated cold front will

bring sporadic snow showers to the Dakotas as steadier snow

falls during the afternoon in Minnesota. Snow showers will

also expand westward into the Intermountain West while

sporadic rain showers push ashore in Washington. Much of the

Northeast will dry out, with abundant sunshine throughout

the region ahead of the nor'easter for the weekend. It will

be largely dry elsewhere in the country with cool conditions

continuing in the Southwest.
