Potential tropical system to impact the Southeast
For the beginning of the week, showery weather will prevail across the eastern one-third of the U.S., with 1- to 3-inch totals likely in the Atlantic Coast States. Localized areas along the Gulf Coast could see much higher totals as a potential tropical system approaches or reaches the coast during the mid- to late-week period. In contrast, the Western States look to remain relatively dry, with little to no rainfall expected in most places. Extreme heat will prevail through the weekend in California and the Desert Southwest, with record-setting high temperatures likely, while cooler-than-normal weather will cover the Midwest and much of the South.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for above-normal temperatures along both coastlines, as opposed to near- to below-normal temperatures throughout the nation’s mid-section. Heat will continue in California but is not likely to be record breaking. Meanwhile, below-normal rainfall in the Northwest and southern Florida should contrast with wetter-than-normal weather in much of the Great Lakes, Southern, and Eastern States.
