Weather
Favorable fall weather across most of the Heartland
Cool weather will continue to dominate the central and eastern U.S., except for above-normal temperatures across the northern High Plains. Meanwhile, late-season warmth will cover much of the West. Although most of the country—including large sections of the northern Plains, Midwest, and Far West—will experience dry weather for the remainder of the week, significant rain will develop across the South.
The rain will be associated with a slow-moving storm system, which will begin to draw moisture from eastern Pacific Hurricane Willa. Five-day rainfall totals could reach 1 to 3 inches or more from Texas to the southern Atlantic Coast, excluding southern Florida. By week’s end, a coastal storm may begin to form along the Atlantic Seaboard.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for cooler-than-normal conditions in much of the eastern half of the U.S., while above-normal temperatures will prevail across the northern High Plains and the West. Meanwhile, wetter-than-normal weather across much of the northern and eastern U.S. should contrast with below-normal precipitation from California to Texas.
