Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of near- or above-normal temperatures across the South, East, and lower Midwest, while cooler-than-normal conditions will prevail west of a line from southeastern New Mexico to Lake Michigan.
Meanwhile, amid an expected stormy regime, near- or below-normal rainfall in the lower Rio Grande Valley should contrast with wetter-than-normal weather across the remainder of the country.
