[July 30, 2008]  (AP)  Storms stretched from the Great Lakes to northern Texas early Wednesday, while the Rockies and Northeast woke to calm weather and the Gulf Coast was rainy.

RestaurantA cold front over the Great Lakes was to kick up strong winds, heavy rain and thunderstorms over the Midwest and Ohio River Valley into the Plains.

To the South, low pressure will extend into the Southern Plains and is expected to produce showers and thunderstorms, some of which may become severe.

The Northeast will see a break in wet conditions. Due to the slow moving system over the Great Lakes, New England will see mostly sunny skies and increasing temperatures.

The Southeast will continue to see afternoon showers and thunderstorms. High pressure over the Mid-Atlantic will feed warm and moist air into the region from the Gulf, sparking thunderstorms.

In the West, low pressure will push a cold front over the Pacific Northwest. The front will bring overcast skies and widespread scattered showers to the region.

High pressure over the Southwest will allow for a break in monsoon storms. California will see mostly sunny conditions with the exception of fog along the coasts and areas of haze and smoke.

Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Tuesday ranged from a low of 36 degrees at Stanley, Idaho, to a high of 104 degrees at Hearne, Texas.
