A winter storm warning was issued from northern New Mexico through Oklahoma in anticipation of several inches of snow. The storm was projected to head eastward late Thursday, ushering in heavy rain along the Gulf Coast and snow from Arkansas through the middle Mississippi Valley.
Scattered snow showers also were forecast from Montana through the Dakotas and Nebraska, where overnight lows could dip to minus 10 degrees. The West was expected to remain dry and mild.
The Northeast was forecast to rise into the 30s, 40s and 50s, while the Southeast was to see temperatures in the 60s and 70s. The northern Plains were expected to barely hit double digits, while the Northwest was to see temperatures in the 50s and 60s. California was forecast to rise into the 60s and 70s.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states Wednesday ranged from a low of minus 13 degrees at Sugarloaf, Colo., to a high of 88 degrees at Marathon, Fla.
