A mild pattern to dominate much of the Plains
For the remainder of Wednesday, a developing Southwestern storm will result in significant snowfall accumulations (locally more than a foot) in southern portions of the Rockies and High Plains. The snow will linger through Thursday across portions of Oklahoma, New Mexico and northern and western Texas. Farther east, storm total rainfall (through Friday) could reach 1 to 3 inches from eastern Texas to southern Georgia and northern Florida. By late Friday and into Saturday, another area of snow may develop in the central Appalachians and the Mid-Atlantic piedmont. Elsewhere, light snow will end later Wednesday across the Midwestern and Mid-Atlantic States, while dry weather will persist through week’s end in California and the Great Basin.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of above-normal temperatures from the Pacific Coast to the Plains, while colder-than-normal conditions will dominate the eastern U.S. Meanwhile, near- to below-normal precipitation across the majority of the country will contrast with wetter-than-normal weather in coastal New England and in the north-central U.S. near the Canadian border.
