An atmospheric river is set to bring heavy rain to the Pacific Northwest on Monday and Tuesday, following a brief respite. While river levels in Washington and Oregon are currently receding and expected to stay below flood stage, forecasts predict 5 to 10 inches of rain within a week. Meanwhile, a winter storm is anticipated across the Midwest and Northeast, with snow advisories issued for several states, including up to 4 inches in major cities like New York and Philadelphia. Extreme cold warnings extend from the Dakotas to Alabama, with wind chills potentially dropping as low as 45 degrees below zero in some areas.
