Rising Temperatures and Flood Watches in Western Regions.

Warmer temperatures are expected across the US this week, with some areas experiencing highs 10-20 degrees above historical averages. The Gulf Coast and Southeast may see heavy rain and flooding mid to late week due to a developing low-pressure area in the Gulf of Mexico, although the chance for a tropical or subtropical storm is now less likely. Areas with an abundance of snow are on flood watch due to rapid snowpack melting, while the Pacific Northwest will experience more rain.
