Behind the storm, an Arctic blast will move across the country, dropping our temperatures and creating blustery conditions.
The deep penetrating cold blast will likely help to set up a storm track that favors snow early.
A coastal low is expected to develop along the southeastern coast late Monday and track northeast.
With cold air remaining in place, snow looks possible across much of the region but a lot is still uncertain about the track.
