Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for near- or above-normal temperatures nationwide, except for cooler-than-normal conditions in the western Great Basin and Pacific Coast States. 

Meanwhile, above-normal precipitation across northern California, the Northwest, northern Plains, and southern Atlantic States should contrast with drier-than-normal weather in the central Rockies, middle Mississippi Valley, and from the Great Lakes region into the Northeast.
