A low-pressure system east of Florida will become better organized before drifting northward toward the middle Atlantic Coast by the end of the week. Regardless of tropical development, mid-Atlantic impacts may include heavy rain, gusty winds, and heavy surf. Farther west, a slow-moving storm system will result in a multi-day precipitation event across the nation’s mid-section. Five-day rainfall totals could reach 1 to 3 inches or more across the northern Plains and western Corn Belt.
