Rains to increase across parts of the Heartland

Much of the nation will experience a gradual warming trend, although cool conditions will linger through week’s end in the Great Lakes and Northeastern States. Meanwhile, an active, showery weather pattern will persist in many areas, with rainfall intensifying late in the week across the eastern half of the U.S. Five-day rainfall totals could reach 1 to 3 inches along and east of a line from Texas to Wisconsin, with some of the heaviest rain expected during the weekend from the Ohio Valley into the northern Mid-Atlantic States. In contrast, little or no rain will fall from the Desert Southwest to the northern High Plains.

Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of below-normal temperatures across most of the eastern half of the U.S., while warmer-than-normal weather will prevail across Florida’s peninsula, the northern High Plains, and the West. Meanwhile, below-normal rainfall from the Pacific Northwest into the upper Midwest will contrast with wetter-than-normal weather from the central and southern Plains to the middle and southern Atlantic States.
