On Tuesday, areas across the northern Prairies will see temperatures that sit 10–15°C above seasonal norms.
In fact, temperatures in these regions are expected to outpace cities like Denver and Colorado Springs, which are currently experiencing below-seasonal temperatures due to a strong cold front.
This cold front is allowing northwesterly winds to bring rainfall and cooler conditions to parts of the U.S.
The above-seasonal warmth isn’t expected to be short-lived, either.
Over the next 10 days, warmer-than-seasonal temperatures will persist for much of the country.
