A bitter Arctic blast will settle into the Northeast in time for Mother's Day weekend with a possibility of snow, just as the Southwest faces record-heat.

After summer-like warmth over the weekend, cooler air already is spreading from the Great Lakes into the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. But even colder air is on the way, late this week into the weekend.

"The bigger story with this is we're gonna see several rounds of snow for parts of the interior Northeast. So this first batch moves in on Thursday, Friday, and then the second one, the more potent system, moves in on Mother's Day weekend," Fox News senior meteorologist Janice Dean said Tuesday on "Fox & Friends."
