In the East, the majority of rain was to fall in the Ohio Valley and Northeast, and spread into the Tennessee Valley later in the day. Behind this cold front, cold air will filter into the Great Lakes, Upper Mississippi Valley and Northeast.
Some showers also were possible along the Southeast Coast and over Florida due to struggling Tropical Storm Noel. The storm was not expected to make landfall as it curves toward the northeast and parallels the East Coast.
The West was expected to remain dry under a wavy ridge of high pressure, which also was to bring warming temperatures to the Southwest. Renewed fire danger has prompted fire watches that will extend into the weekend for the hills of Southern California.
The Northeast will see temperatures in the 40s, 50s and 60s, while the Southeast will rise into the 60s and 70s. The Great Lakes will rise into the 40s and 50s, while the Northwest will see temperatures in the 40s, 50s and 60s.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Wednesday ranged from a low of 10 degrees at Polebridge, Mont., to a high of 92 degrees at Thermal, Calif.
