1st-3rd...In the East on Saturday, the main weather focus continued to
be the progression of Extratropical Storm Noel this afternoon. The

New England coast over the past several hours. Heavy rains and gusty

Otherwise, generally light rain has impacted Connecticut, New
Hampshire and Maine.
11th-17th...In the East, a strong low pressure system gradually pushed
northward across northern New England this afternoon, triggering
scattered rain showers along the coast, and snowfall throughout the
interior. Snowfall accumulations ranged from a trace to nearly 8
inches in lake-effect prone areas of the Northeast. Farther south,
scattered snow showers also impacted the interior Northeast and lower
Great Lakes, with 1 to 2 inches of accumulation reported in parts of
western New York and Pennsylvania. In the West, areas of scattered
showers continued to impact the Pacific Northwest and northern
Rockies, with upwards of 1 inch of rain reported in Washington.

eastward, into central and eastern Montana. Snowfall accumulations of
4 to 8 inches was reported over the Idaho Panhandle into western
Montana, with upwards of 12 inches across central Montana and the
northern Rocky Mountains.
In the East, showers and thunderstorms developed along a cold front

reported in northern New York and northern New England. Farther south,
strong thunderstorms fired ahead of a cold front located near the
Mississippi River. Hail and gusty winds occurred. Rainfall over an
inch occurred in the Lower Mississippi Valley and Tennessee Valley. In
the Plains, a storm system brought rain showers, thunderstorms, and
snow to the area. Strong thunderstorms developed along a cold front
