Continuing now and for several days ahead, significant rainfall events will unfold across the Midwest. Five-day totals could reach 5 inches or more from southeastern Iowa and northern Missouri into southern Michigan and northern Indiana. A broader area, including the central and southern Plains and the mid-South, will also experience periodic heavy showers. However, the precipitation shield will have a sharp northwestern edge, with only light showers expected across the northern Plains and far upper Midwest. West of the Rockies, widely scattered showers are not expected to provide meaningful drought relief. Furthermore, building heat across the Northwest will maintain significant stress on rangeland, pastures, winter wheat, and spring-sown crops. Farther east, however, much of the eastern half of the country will experience near- or below-normal temperatures.
