The GFS having underestimated the amount of cold air seeping in from Canada over the past 24 hours is still prognosing warmer air to move into New England through the rest of the weekend into early next week. However, by mid week the GFS passes another cold front through the Northeast which quickly reverses to a mild moist flow for the end of the week.
Low pressure moving from Iowa to Minnesota sets up showers and thunderstorms possibly severe for the Midwest through mid week while a series of disturbances keeps the western third of the country under rain/snow.
