Periods of snow will continue across norther Maine as an area of low pressure lifts northeastward. 2-6 inches of additional snow will be possible. Across Texas, thunderstorms will be possible over the Big Bend by late afternoon or early evening as an upper level disturbance moves over Northern Mexico. Strong to severe thunderstorms with large hail and damaging winds will be possible. The same upper level disturbance will induce a surface low over southern Texas and allow Gulf moisture to move northward into Louisiana and Eastern Texas, bringing heavy rain into the region. .5 to 2.5 inches of rain will be possible. In the Cascades, 2-4 inches of snow will be possible for elevations above 6000 feet.
