A warm-up underway on the central, southern Plains

Across the Corn Belt, chilly conditions linger in the wake of the recent winter storm and cold spell.  Tuesday’s high temperatures will remain below 32°F in the vicinity of the Great Lakes, although snow showers have largely subsided.  However, some Midwestern travel disruptions continue, both in rural areas and at major transportation hubs.

On the Plains, mild weather is replacing previously frigid conditions.  Tuesday’s high temperatures will climb above 32°F throughout the region, with readings reaching 70°F as far north as the central High Plains.
