High pressure was to remain the dominant weather feature in the East, with mainly clear skies anticipated throughout the region. A few thunderstorms and afternoon showers were anticipated throughout the Northeast, Appalachians and New England.
The Gulf Coast was forecast to remain wet as weak, low pressure sits off the coast. The wet weather in the Gulf states will be further enhanced by the southern tail of the front moving through the Plains.
In the West, high pressure was to remain in place for most of the day, but a Pacific low will begin moving into the Northwest during the afternoon.
As the high pushes eastward, temperatures will fall a bit throughout the West, especially along the coast, where highs will be down significantly from Sunday's balmy temperatures.
In the Rockies, dry conditions should prevail, with cool temperatures spreading through the region. In many locations, residents of Colorado and New Mexico will wake up to their first frost on Monday morning.
Temperatures in the lower 48 states on Sunday ranged from a low of 16 degrees at Leadville, Colo., to a high of 96 degrees at Middletown, Ohio.
