Weather
An unsettled pattern to expand across the Heartland
During the next several days, a pair of storms emerging from the western U.S. will maintain unsettled, stormy conditions across the nation’s mid-section. Five-day rainfall amounts could reach 2 to 5 inches or more on the central and southern Plains, while 1- to 2-inch totals can be expected across portions of the northern Plains, Midwest, and Intermountain West. Meanwhile, a low-pressure system developing near the Bahamas has the potential to produce showers along the southern Atlantic Coast. Warm, mostly dry weather will prevail through week’s end across the remainder of the Southeast. During the mid- to late-week period, cool air will overspread much of the western and central U.S.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for near- to below-normal temperatures in most areas from the Pacific Coast to the Plains and upper Midwest, while warmer-than-normal weather can be expected in the eastern one-third of the U.S. Meanwhile, near- to above-normal precipitation will cover the nation, with the greatest likelihood of wet weather occurring in the south-central U.S.
