The Nation's Weather for Tuesday, March 16, 2021

NATIONAL SUMMARY

The storm that unloaded feet of snow across the Rockies and

High Plains over the weekend will unravel and weaken as it

reaches the East tomorrow. Stray showers are forecast to

sweep through the upper Ohio Valley and mid-Atlantic, while

a drenching rain targets Louisiana to the Carolinas. Just

enough cold air may remain in place over the central

Appalachians for a brief period of snow or a wintry mix at

the onset of precipitation. Meanwhile, a new storm is

expected to strengthen over the southern Plains, igniting

another round of severe weather across the South Central

states late in the afternoon and overnight. Scattered rain

and snow showers are forecast on the back side of the storm

across the Intermountain West. The West Coast will get a

reprieve from unsettled weather.
