For the remainder of Monday, a low-pressure system traversing the upper Midwest will provide the focus for a significant precipitation event, with an additional 1 to 2 inches of rain expected from parts of the Dakotas into northern Minnesota.  Locally severe thunderstorms will develop along the system’s trailing cold front, from the upper Mississippi Valley to the southern Plains.  Thunderstorms will linger through Tuesday, when the axis of concern for severe weather will extend from the lower Great Lakes region to the southern Plains.  By the middle of the week, the tail of the cold front will remain active, leading to additional showers and thunderstorms from the southeastern Plains into the mid-South and middle Mississippi Valley.  Five-day rainfall totals could reach 2 to 4 inches or more from central Texas into the lower Midwest.  Late in the week, any lingering showers should shift into the South and East, while a new round of storminess will arrive in the Northwest.
