Changes in some agency YTD acres reflect more accurate mapping or reporting adjustments.
Predictive Services Discussion: 

Well above normal temperatures are expected from the Southeast through Texas, the Southwest, much of 

California, and into northern Intermountain West. Isolated to scattered mixed wet and dry thunderstorms will 

develop across the central Great Basin, West Slope, southeast Arizona, and much of New Mexico. Hot, dry, 

and breezy conditions are likely across portions of west Texas and the Desert Southwest, away from 

thunderstorms. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms, including severe, will develop along and 

ahead of a cold from the Colorado and southern Rockies into the eastern Great Lakes, while more showers 

and thunderstorms are expected for the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys through the southern and central 

Appalachians into the Mid-Atlantic. Warm temperatures are forecast for much of Interior Alaska, with 

widespread showers over western Alaska.
