Milder weather to expand across the Heartland
Southern California’s offshore winds should subside by week’s end, allowing wildfire containment efforts to further advance. Meanwhile, some light precipitation will develop in the Northwest, starting on Friday. Periods of snow can also be expected across the North, especially in the vicinity of the Great Lakes. During the weekend, rain (1 to 2 inches or more) should develop in parts of the Southeast. In contrast, dry weather will continue into next week in California, the Southwest, and the central and southern High Plains. In addition, significantly above-normal temperatures will continue to dominate much of the western and central U.S. during the next few days. From the Great Lakes region into the Northeast, cold conditions will ease during the weekend.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of warmer-than-normal weather nationwide, except for near- to below-normal temperatures across the nation’s northern tier. Meanwhile, near- to below-normal precipitation across most of the country should contrast with wetter-than-normal conditions in the interior Southeast and from Montana to Maine.
