[June 10, 2008]  (AP)  Rain and thunderstorms moved across the Appalachians and South early Tuesday while hazy, humid air smothered areas along the East Coast and snow was likely in the Northwest.

Strong to severe thunderstorms were predicted over portions of the Great Lakes and across the Northeast, with the main threat being large hail and damaging winds. A few tornadoes were possible as well.

Excessive heat will persist in portions of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic for one more day in advance of a cold front that is expected to push through the region by Tuesday night. Temperatures were expected to climb back to around 100 degrees Tuesday afternoon.

The Central Plains will see a warming as a ridge of high pressure builds. Temperatures exceeding 80 degrees were expected as far north as Iowa.

In the Northwest, an unseasonably cool Pacific system was expected to bring heavy rain and thunderstorms to the region. Heavy snow was likely to occur at high elevations throughout the day, with as much as 6 inches of accumulated wet, heavy snow likely in parts of Idaho and Montana.

High pressure was dominating the Southwest. Temperatures in California will slightly decrease but the majority of the Southwest will remain hot with temperatures exceeding 100 degrees.

Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Monday ranged from a low of 22 degrees at Big Piney, Wyo., to a high of 112 degrees at Death Valley, Calif.
