National weather overview

Weather conditions across the United States tomorrow will remain highly contrasting, reflecting a classic winter pattern.

Arctic air will dominate much of the Midwest, Great Lakes, and Northeast, keeping temperatures well below freezing. At the same time, the South and Southwest will experience milder and more stable conditions, while the West Coast stays seasonably cool and mostly dry.

A large high-pressure system over the central and eastern states will limit precipitation, resulting in clear but very cold conditions overnight. Coastal areas in the Pacific Northwest and Hawaii will see higher humidity and a greater chance of rain, though severe weather is not expected.
