Weather
Beneficially dry pattern across the Heartland
Chilly weather will trail a series of cold fronts, leading to significantly below-normal temperatures across the Plains, Midwest, and Northeast. Warmth will linger, however, across the lower Southeast. In addition, above-normal temperatures will also cover much of the Far West, with mild weather returning later in the week to northern sections of the Rockies and Plains.
Meanwhile, largely dry weather will prevail through week’s end from the Pacific Coast to the northern Plains and upper Midwest. In contrast, periods of rain will persist across the South, with the highest totals (locally 2 to 6 inches or more) expected in Texas and portions of neighboring states. Parts of the Four Corners States will also receive some precipitation in the form of both rain and snow showers.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of near- to below-normal temperatures across much of the central and eastern U.S., while warmer-than-normal weather will be confined to Florida, the Far West, and the northern High Plains. Meanwhile, below-normal precipitation from the Northwest into the Midwest should contrast with wetter-than-normal conditions across much of the southern U.S.
