A system is moving from Ohio into the Northeast for Thursday, which will produce scattered showers in those areas. Behind the system, colder air is spreading down from the Dakotas into the Great Lakes, which will continue to push southward throughout the day and into the weekend, being much colder for the Southeast than usual for several days. The cold air moving over the Great Lakes should produce periods of lake-effect showers, which may include some snow, through Saturday.
