Drier, milder weather to build across the Heartland
Precipitation along the northern Atlantic Coast will end later Friday, ushering in an extended period of mostly dry weather nearly nationwide.
A notable exception will be weekend rain and snow showers, associated with a cold front, in the Great Lakes and Northeastern States. A few showers will also affect southern Florida and the Pacific Northwest, but the remainder of the country, from California to the Mississippi Valley and into much of the Southeast, will remain dry during the next 5 days.
Over the weekend and early next week, warmth will become established across the West and gradually return across the Plains. Chilly conditions will linger, however, across the South, East, and lower Midwest.
Early next week, freezes may occur as far south as the Tennessee Valley.
Looking ahead, the 6- to 10-day outlook calls for the likelihood of warmer-than-normal weather nationwide, except for near- or below-normal temperatures in the Northwest.
Meanwhile, wetter-than-normal conditions across Florida’s peninsula and from the Pacific Northwest into the upper Midwest should contrast with below-normal precipitation in southern sections of the Rockies and Plains and most areas from the middle and lower Mississippi Valley to the East Coast.
