 Snowy weather was expected to move into the Eastern U.S. from the Plains on Tuesday.
A strong low pressure system that brought 3 to 5 inches of snow to the Midwest and Southern Plains was forecast to continue tracking east over the Mississippi River Valley and toward the East Coast.
Moisture from the Gulf of Mexico was expected to continue feeding the system, while flow around it could create a cold front extending down the Mississippi River and up the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys. Between 2 and 5 inches of snow was expected in much of the Midwest throughout the day. The Tennessee Valley could see up to an inch of snow in the morning, then a messy combination of frozen rain and sleet by afternoon with temperatures hovering above freezing.
