...More unsettled weather expected to bring beneficial precipitation
across the Pacific Northwest and the Northern Rockies over the next couple
of days...

...Mixed light rain and snow will brush the northern borders of the
Northern Plains to the interior Northeast...

...Fair and mild weather expected to continue from the southwestern U.S.
to much of the eastern U.S; cool Pacific air arrives over the West
today....


Troughing in the West will continue to generate rainfall over much of the
Northwest over the next couple of days. Some instability mixing in with a
plume of moisture along the immediate Pacific Northwest coast will support
a Marginal Risk of Flash Flooding. The primary areas of concern are Burn
Scars and other vulnerable surfaces. Light to moderate snow will fall over
the highest elevations of the Cascades and Northern Rockies today before
the snow level drops behind the upper trough on Tuesday.

Shortwave energy moving across the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes will
continue generating light to moderate rain/snow across those areas today
before spreading into the Northeast tonight into Tuesday. Diffluence
associated with the western trough will bring another round of mixed
precipitation to the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes Tuesday night.

Ridging across the South/Southeast U.S. will see high temperatures soar
into the upper 70s to low 90s over the next couple of days. Many places
from the Southern High Plains to the Southeast will experience record high
temperatures today and Tuesday. Highs over the Central/Southern Plains
will be between 20-30 degrees above average during this period. Elsewhere,
the western trough will also bring with it below average temperatures to
much of the West beginning.
