Mild to warm weather across the Heartland; scattered rains to expand on the Plains

Uneventful weather will cover many parts of the country for much of the week, although exceptions may include heavy rain along the southern Atlantic Coast and mid- to late-week showers and thunderstorms across the Plains and Rockies. 

Five-day rainfall totals could reach 2 to 4 inches or more in Florida and southern Georgia, while 1- to 2-inch totals may occur across the nation’s mid-section, extending into the Rockies.  In contrast, dry weather will prevail during the next 5 days in much of the Midwest, mid-Atlantic, western Gulf Coast region, Desert Southwest, and Far West.
