A drier pattern ahead for the Corn Belt

A storm system currently centered over the central Appalachians will drift into the lower Great Lakes region during the weekend. Additional rainfall could reach 1 to 2 inches in the Northeast, with higher amounts possible along the Atlantic Coast. In other areas east of the Mississippi River, cool, dry weather will prevail into early next week. Starting on May 7, frost will be a threat in portions of the Great Lakes and Northeastern States. Meanwhile, warm weather will prevail into next week across the nation’s mid-section, but cooler, showery weather will overspread much of the West.

Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of below-normal temperatures nationwide, except for warmer-than-normal weather across Florida’s peninsula and northern sections of the Rockies and Plains. Meanwhile, below-normal rainfall in the Midwest, as well as southern parts of Texas and Florida, will contrast with wetter-than-normal weather across the remainder of the U.S.
