A very wet, active pattern across the Heartland

Generally tranquil weather will prevail in many parts of the U.S. through the weekend. Exceptions will include the Great Lakes and Northeastern States, where cool, windy weather will accompany lingering rain and snow showers, and the Pacific Northwest, where heavy precipitation will gradually subside.

By early next week, however, a new storm system will take aim on the nation’s mid-section. Heavy showers and locally severe thunderstorms will erupt from the southeastern Plains and the mid-South into the mid-Mississippi Valley, while wind-driven snow could develop across the central portions of the Rockies and High Plains, as well as neighboring areas.

Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the strong likelihood of above-normal temperatures across the eastern half of the U.S., while colder-than-normal conditions can be expected from the Pacific Coast to the High Plains. Meanwhile, near- to above-normal precipitation should occur nationwide, with the greatest likelihood of wet weather expected in the Midwest.
