Temperatures moderate; active weather to return
Except for a modest surge of cold air from the Pacific Northwest to the southern Plains, milder weather will cover much of the country for the remainder of the week. Meanwhile, several storm systems will affect various parts of the nation. First, a fast-moving disturbance will produce snow across the nation’s northern tier, reaching New England by Thursday. Second, a storm system will affect the southwestern and south-central U.S., resulting in locally heavy rain and some high-elevation snow. Finally, Pacific storminess will return to the Northwest by Thursday, followed by widespread and locally significant Western precipitation by week’s end.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of above-normal temperatures along and east of a line from Texas to Wisconsin, while colder-than-normal conditions can be expected across the northern High Plains and much of the West. Meanwhile, wetter-than-normal weather nearly nationwide will contrast with below-normal precipitation across the lower Southeast.
