Pattern change to bring warmer temperatures to much of the country next week.

'Most will be warm — but signs point to cool air and storminess for some.

Following a damp, dank week for many in the East and a month of soaking rains in the Midwest, a pattern change is finally set to bring summer’s warmth to much of the Lower 48.

Warming temperatures and limited storminess are expected. But there could be a few areas that don’t tap into Mother Nature’s sunnier disposition, with models hinting at some meteorological mischief in the South.

Preliminary indications suggest temperatures from five degrees above average to as much as 15 will settle in across the West, while the Central Plains, Midwest and Northeast could start the week warm, as well. Memorial Day is looking superb for millions.

But there are signs that a couple spots in the country may not be so lucky, as the same pattern bringing pleasant weather to most may also feature a few pockets of chillier or stormier weather. And signs point to the return of more stormy weather after next week.'>>>
