[February 04, 2008]  (AP) Wet weather was expanding over the East and Midwest early Monday as low pressure moves out of the Rockies and picks up moisture from the Gulf of Mexico.

Snow was predicted to move across the western Great Lakes and Northern Plains, with around a half a foot of snow expected across Minnesota and Wisconsin.

The same storm system was to bring some storms to the Appalachian Mountains, mostly in the Carolinas. Unseasonably mild temperatures were forecast.

Very late in the day, rain will move into the Northeast, with precipitation heaviest over eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey and eastern New York.

In the interior West, heavy snow was to continue falling across the mountains, especially the Four Corners states, which could receive well over a foot.

By nightfall most of the snow was expected to taper off throughout the Rockies, but a new system will move into the Northwest bringing wet weather.

Unlike previous storms in the past few weeks, wet weather was to remain fairly far north on Monday, staying out of California as high pressure builds over the state.

Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Sunday ranged from a low of minus 9 degrees at Gunnison, Colo., to a high of 89 degrees at Hebbronville, Texas.
