A cool pattern from the Plains, eastward
While Tropical Storm Cindy does not pose much of a threat with regard to winds or storm surge, flooding will remain a concern during the next few days. Storm-total rainfall could reach 4 to 8 inches from the Gulf Coast northward into the Tennessee Valley and the central Appalachians. Isolated totals in excess of 12 inches could occur along the central Gulf Coast. Meanwhile, scattered showers and thunderstorms will cross the Midwest through Thursday, followed by another surge of cool, dry air. In fact, below-normal temperatures will dominate areas from the Plains to the East Coast, starting late this week.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of above-normal temperatures in southern Florida and the West, while cooler-than-normal conditions will dominate the eastern half of the U.S. Meanwhile, below-normal rainfall in the lower Ohio Valley and from the Pacific Northwest to the northern Plains should contrast with wetter-than-normal weather from the lower Great Lakes region to New England and from the southern Rockies into the lower Southeast.
