Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of above-normal temperatures in New England and throughout the southern and western U.S., while cooler-than-normal conditions will cover the northern Plains and the Midwest.
Meanwhile, near- or above-normal rainfall along and northeast of a line from the northern Rockies to the Mississippi Delta should contrast with drier-than-normal weather in most areas from Oregon and California to the western Gulf Coast region.
