Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of hotter-than-normal conditions throughout the southern, western, and eastern U.S., while near- or below-normal temperatures will be confined to the northern Plains and upper Midwest.
Meanwhile, near- or below-normal rainfall across much of the South and West should contrast with wetter-than-normal weather in northern California, southern Florida, and from the northern Plains to New England.
