Satellite picture very clear depicts the jet stream flowing down the
Rockies and moving up thru the Great Lakes. This allows the cold air to be flowing in that area of The U.S. while the east can see an ejection of moisture and milder air coming out of the Gulf Of Mexico. The jet stream heads east...so it will be turning colder in the east this week...but right now..nothing extreme like last week. Most of the storms may and should stay just offshore....so aside from some light bouts of precip. this week...Eastern Half of the Nation should not see severe winter weather.
