...Critical Fire weather conditions continue in the Southern Plains
through the end of the day...

...Clipper system to bring Lake Effect snow to the Northeast, and showers
and thunderstorms to the Southeast beginning on Thursday...

...Warm temperatures and dry conditions continue for much of the West,
before precipitation returns in the Northern Plains and Rockies in the
wake of a frontal system to end the week...

In the Northwest, drier conditions are expected to continue for the next
few days as an upper-level ridge moves in, with the exception of upslope
flow bringing wintry precipitation in parts of Washington. To accompany
the dry weather out West, well above-average temperatures are expected to
continue across much of the West, into the Plains states, before moving
into the Southeast. Temperatures in the Southwest and Southern Plains will
be especially warm for this time of the year, with locations in Arizona,
southern Texas, and southeast California exceeding 90 degrees. The
combination of drier weather and gusty winds in parts of the Plains has
resulted in the Storm Prediction Center issuing a Critical Fire Weather
Risk, with Red Flag warnings expected to continue through early this
evening.

Meanwhile further east, a pair of frontal systems will continue to bring
snow and wintry precipitation downwind of the Great Lakes through
Thursday. This will bring a few more inches of snow accumulation to parts
of the Northeast after last weekendâ€s winter storm. The associated front
is then forecast to extend down into the South and Southeast, bringing
along with it showers and thunderstorms beginning on Thursday morning. The
front will then continue its way southeastward, as far south as Florida,
with showers and thunderstorms expected to end the work week.

Early into the weekend, a secondary clipper is anticipated to dive out of
the Canadian Rockies and bring upslope snowfall in the Northern Rockies
and Northern Plains. Early weekend impacts associated with this event are
currently expected to remain relatively minor, but it will result in a
return of precipitation to the Northern Plains, the Northern Rockies, the
Intermountain West, and parts of the Central Great Basin.
