The warming trend is likely in the Southern Rockies, including the southern Plains. On the other hand, chilly temperatures can occur in the upper Midwest and northern Plains.

Meanwhile, San Diego residents can anticipate highs from 65 to 70 near the coast. High temperatures will be more likely on Monday, with seasonal averages, particularly throughout April.

For Los Angeles residents, gusty northwest-to-north winds can stay throughout Tuesday, including in southwest Santa Barbara country and Antelope Valley. The forecast warns of hazardous driving conditions this week.

In Salt Lake City, a slight warm-up could unload, with high temperatures reaching the 60s and 70s. Recently, the region experienced periods of snow near Utah's mountains.

Windy conditions and a chance of rain can unload in the Bay Area. Recently, severe weather threatened southern and central Plains, bringing thunderstorms and intense storms.

In the western U.S., the forecast monitors the development of a slow-moving upper-level trough, which can also traverse the Great Plains.
