Across New England, heavy rain was expected in Massachusetts, Connecticut and the surrounding region, while several inches of snow was expected in Maine.
A cold front associated with the storm will move across the eastern coastal regions of the Southeast, dumping some rain on the region during the early morning hours. The Southeast should clear up later, and mostly sunny skies should prevail for the second half of the day.
High pressure will dominate the Plains on Tuesday, allowing clear skies to prevail across the region throughout the day.
To the west, a low pressure system located off the southern California coast will bring a rare batch of rain to the area. The rain along the coast near Los Angeles will be heavy enough to prompt flash flood watches.
The rest of the Southwest will see partly to mostly clear skies during the day. Meanwhile, a new front will begin to trek across the Northwest, bringing rain to Washington and Oregon on Tuesday.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Monday ranged from a low of 1 degree at Kremmling, Colo., to a high of 86 degrees at Falfurrias, Texas.
