Recurring rains ahead for the Heartland
Most of the country will experience a continuation of, or return to, above-normal temperatures. However, chilly conditions will persist in California and the Northwest. Widespread precipitation will accompany the Western cool spell, with 2- to 4-inch totals possible in northern California and the Pacific Northwest. In contrast, mostly dry weather should prevail for the remainder of the week in the Southwest and the lower Southeast, while spotty showers can be expected in other areas. Much of the mid- to late-week precipitation that occurs should fall across the Plains and Midwest.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for above-normal temperatures nationwide, except for cooler-than-normal conditions across the nation’s northern tier. Meanwhile, near- to above-normal precipitation across much of the country will contrast with drier-than-normal weather in the central Rockies and parts of the lower Southeast.
