High pressure currently camped over the Corn Belt will drift eastward, allowing moisture associated with a weak disturbance to overspread the mid-South and Midwest later Friday into Saturday.  Wintry precipitation (snow, sleet, and freezing rain) will affect the western Corn Belt, with local travel disruptions persisting into the weekend.  A second disturbance, slightly stronger, will trail the first, with additional precipitation expected early next week across portions of the nation’s mid-section.  Two-storm precipitation totals could reach 1 to 2 inches or more from northeastern Texas into the lower Ohio Valley.  Meanwhile, a parade of Pacific storm systems will maintain unsettled conditions across northern California and the Northwest, with the heaviest precipitation expected in the coastal ranges of northwestern California.  Conversely, mostly dry weather will prevail during the next 5 days across the lower Southeast and from southern California to the central and southern High Plains.
