Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of near- or above-normal temperatures nationwide, except for cooler-than-normal conditions along and near the Atlantic Coast.
Meanwhile, above-normal precipitation from northern California and the Pacific Northwest to the northern Plains should contrast with drier-than-normal weather encompassing a broad area stretching from southern California to the middle and southern Atlantic States, extending as far north as the central Plains and southern Corn Belt.
