In the East, temperatures were to come more into line with what is normal for this time of year as much warmer air starts to encroach from the Plains. A steady increase in temperatures was expected for most of the week, with highs back close to 80 in many locations by Thursday or Friday.
Temperatures along the eastern Plains were also to see a jump, where highs should be around 10 or more degrees higher than Sunday's top numbers.
A few thunderstorms could develop throughout the Midwest, with the most likely location for these storms to develop being Iowa and Minnesota. Wisconsin also could have some weaker storms.
In the West, clear skies were anticipated throughout California and the interior West, but a cold front pushing through the Northwest should bring clouds and some more rain to Washington and Oregon.
Further south, the Rocky Mountains and Four Corners states were predicted to see plenty of moisture, triggering thunderstorms and possibly some flash flooding.
Temperatures in the lower 48 states on Sunday ranged from a low of 24 degrees at Pahaska, Wyo., to a high of 108 degrees at Laughlin, Nev.
