United States. Regional forecast offices reported a return to colder, seasonal conditions this week across multiple states. High pressure behind a weekend cold front produced clear nights and radiational cooling, prompting freezing morning lows in parts of Texas and Georgia. A midweek coastal low will bring isolated rain near the Southeast coast while a strong cold front will push precipitation into Ohio, transitioning rain to snow Wednesday. North Georgia may see brief snow showers Thursday. Temperatures rebound slightly midweek, then fall again late week with lows near the 20s in the Carolinas. Based on 6 articles reviewed and supporting research.
