Milder days ahead, especially centered on the Plains; a more active pattern to develop

Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook 1 calls for the likelihood of near- or below-normal temperatures across much of the East, while warmer-than-normal weather will dominate the western and central U.S. 

Meanwhile, near- or below-normal precipitation across most of the country should contrast with wetter-than-normal conditions across the northern U.S., from eastern Montana into the Northeast.
