...Heavy Snow and Strong Winds to Diminish as Storm System Moves East...

The same storm system that brought blizzard conditions to portions of the Central Plains will weaken while moving into the eastern U.S. this evening. The strong winds and heavy snow will gradually diminish, but showers and strong thunderstorms will continue to move across the southeastern U.S. tonight. Rain may be moderate to heavy at times. In the meantime, temperatures should be cold enough to support light snow in the higher elevations of the central Appalachians tonight and Sunday.
