Soaking rainfall will converge on drought-stricken areas of the central United States this week and beyond, AccuWeather meteorologists say. The needed rain is likely to provide a boost to the Mississippi River, which has reached historic lows in some places.
Different weather systems are converging on the the bone-dry region, which could prove beneficial to drought conditions and water levels along major rivers.meteorologists say. The needed rain is likely to provide a boost to the Mississippi River, which has reached historic lows in some places.
On Monday, areas of rain extended from the Big Bend area of the Rio Grande River to northeastern Texas. Most of the early-week rain is not expected to be heavy and should be mostly absorbed by the ground, even where the soil is naturally rocky or hard-packed by drought. However, there will be some exceptions. A few pockets of 2-4 inches of rain will occur with locally higher amounts and may generate some runoff that will work its way into the progressively larger streams and rivers. In one to three weeks, there may be a several-foot rise on the main stem of the Mississippi River.
Looking farther ahead, a wave of much colder air will likely set up a noteworthy temperature boundary or front that will stall over portions of the Plains and Ohio Valley next week, AccuWeather Lead Long-Range Meteorologist Paul Pastelok said. That could be the trigger for another rain event.
