[December 12, 2007]  (AP) A winter system that pounded through the Central states was slowly making its way eastward early Wednesday, triggering widespread rain showers and thunderstorms from the southern Plains and lower Mississippi, Ohio and Tennessee valleys.

A mix of snow, freezing rain and rain was likely over the Great Lakes, Northeast and portions of the southern Plains and Rockies. By Thursday morning, the band of precipitation was expected to reach the Mid-Atlantic, which could present a chance for some icing.

Another day with unusually warm temperatures was in store for the southeastern states as high pressure holds. Temperatures could once again climb 10 to 15 degrees above normal.

The combination of mostly clear skies, light winds and moist air near the ground was to set the stage for widespread dense fog across northeast Florida, southeast Georgia and southeast South Carolina.

Out West, a weak Pacific system pushing through western Canada was to produce light coastal rain and mountain snow showers over portions of the Pacific Northwest and northern Rockies.

Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Tuesday ranged from a low of minus 16 degrees at Solon Springs, Wis., to a high of 91 degrees at Laredo, Texas.
