More cool weather ahead for the Heartland

Locally heavy showers will shift eastward from the central and southern Plains, reaching the southern Atlantic States during the weekend. Meanwhile, somewhat drier weather will prevail in the Southwest, although showers will linger across the central and southern Rockies. Most of the remainder of the West will remain mostly dry, except for scattered showers across the Great Basin and Intermountain region. Mostly dry weather will also continue through week’s end from the northern Plains into the middle Mississippi Valley. Elsewhere, an ongoing heat wave in the Northwest will contrast with near- to below-normal temperatures in most other parts of the country.

Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for below-normal temperatures in much of the central and eastern U.S., while hotter-than-normal conditions will cover southern Florida and the Far West. Meanwhile, near- to above-normal rainfall across the majority of the U.S. will contrast with drier-than normal conditions in parts of southern Texas and from the Pacific Northwest into the upper Midwest.
