Snow and ice conditions are expected to continue throughout Monday along the I-90 and I-94 corridors, impacting travelers from Michigan, Indiana, and Wisconsin.

The highest snowfall will be in lower Michigan, where some areas could see between 3 and 5 inches of accumulation.

The ice and snow will move into the Northeast Monday night into Tuesday morning.

Winter weather advisories have been issued for Washington, D.C. and Philadelphia, where a glaze of ice and a dusting of snow is forecast for Tuesday morning.

A band of snow will move into New York City by 7:30 a.m. and into Boston by 9 a.m., creating slick roads.

Elsewhere in the country, temperatures will remain relatively mild for the holiday. Christmas is expected to be chilly in the Northeast, but the Arctic conditions the region experienced in the last several days will subside. High temperatures are expected to be in the 30s, closer to normal for this time of year.

The Midwest will experience mild temperatures -- near 50 degrees in Kansas City and in the 40s in the Chicago region. In Florida and the Gulf Coast, temperatures in the 70s are expected.
