Chilly conditions will persist for several days across the nation’s mid-section, with additional freezes expected across the northern Plains and the Midwest.
Early next week, however, markedly warmer air will overspread the Plains and upper Midwest.
Meanwhile, unusually warm, completely dry weather will prevail across the West during the next 5 days, leading to further drought intensification and maintaining the wildfire threat. Heavy rain should be limited to Florida’s peninsula, although some rain may graze the remainder of the Atlantic Seaboard.
