Incoming Storms

Temperatures will tumble in the central United States behind a storm set to bring rain and locally severe thunderstorms from Sunday into Monday.

The chilly air plunging in behind the storm will even allow for some snow to fall, but a repeat of the winterlike storm from earlier in the month is not anticipated. With that storm, heavy snow fell from the Northwest to the Colorado Rockies and northern Plains amid a dramatic temperature plunge.

This upcoming storm, which will first target the Northwestern states with more rain and mountain snow, will trim highs by 10-20 degrees Fahrenheit from their peak this weekend to early next week.

"Unlike a couple of storms that have already dumped copious amounts of snow in low elevations so far this fall, most snow will be confined to the northern and central Rockies this time," AccuWeather Meteorologist Ryan Adamson said.

The exception to this will be Sunday night and into Monday, as the storm pushes eastward.

With the storm pulling cold air down on the back-side, rain will mix with some wet snowflakes across part of the northern Plains into Monday. Little accumulation is expected for most.
