[January 17, 2011]  (AP)  Active weather in the form of a pair of low pressure systems will move into the East to start the workweek.

The first storm will begin the day over the Dakotas before moving into the upper Midwest. This will be the colder of the two storms and will produce widespread snow from the Dakotas through Michigan and the Ohio Valley. The first storm will also be intense enough to produce breezy conditions in the area.

The second storm will be the wetter of the two storms as it moves along the Gulf Coast and across Florida. Because it will contain substantially more moisture, it will produce areas of moderate and heavy rain, especially through Florida and Georgia. Late in the day, this precipitation will move northward along the Southeast Coast as well.

Rain and high-elevation snow will gradually wind down in the Northwest and Intermountain West, but more accumulation is expected throughout the day.

The Northeast will rise into the 10s, 20s and 30s, while the Southeast will see temperatures in the 40s, 50s and 60s. The northern Plains will rise into the 50s and 60s, while the Northwest will see temperatures in the 40s, 50s and 60s.

Temperatures in the Lower 48 states Sunday ranged from a morning low of minus 32 degrees at International Falls, Minn., to a high of 82 degrees at San Fernando, Calif.
