Discussion

The north-central and northwestern parts of the nation will experience warmer-than-normal conditions this week as upper-level high pressure ridging intensifies over that region. In the Northeast US, the week will start off very warm with highs at or above 90 degrees through mid-week, but more comfortable air is likely to push here by the late week. Elsewhere, monsoonal moisture will continue to push into the “Four Corners” region of the Southwest US resulting in additional heavy rainfall for that part of the nation.
