The high temperature in some locations will be 25 F above average. A flow of air from Mexico will extend from the southern Plains to part of New England. Much of this same area can expect a day free of rain with sunshine. However, there will be a batch of clouds, showers and thunderstorms advancing to the east over the Southern states from Tennessee to northern Florida. Meanwhile, stormy conditions will push inland over the western third of the nation.

TheArmy on Friday formally ended further environmental study of the Dakota Ac- cess oil pipeline's disputed crossing beneath a Missouri River reservoir in southern North Dakota. Meanwhile, its Corps of Engineers branch contin- ued efforts to accelerate cleanup at a protest camp near the drilling site that's threatened by spring flood- ing. The Corps launched the study on Jan. 18 in light of concerns from the Standing Rock Sioux and other Na- tive American tribes that a pipeline leak beneath Lake Oahe would pollute drink- ing water. President Donald Trump a week later pushed to ad- vance pipeline construc- tion, and the Army gave Texas-based developer En- ergy Transfer Partners per- mission for the crossing on Feb. 8. Work quickly began on the final chunk of con- struction. Pipeline opponents have continued to call for more study despite the fact that ETP has said the $3.8 bil- lion pipeline to move North Dakota oil to a shipping point in Illinois could be operating as early as next month. More than 100,000 comments had already been submitted for the study, ac- cording to the Indigenous Environmental Network. The Army published no- tice Friday in the Federal Register that it was scrap- ping the study. The Standing Rock and Cheyenne River Sioux also are fighting the pipeline work in court, with the next hearing set for Feb. 28. In the meantime, hun- dreds of pipeline opponents have continued to occupy a camp near the drilling site in North Dakota. State and federal au- thorities have told the few hundred people remain- ing in the camp to leave by Wednesday. Authorities want the area cleaned and closed before spring flood- waters wash tons of trash and debris into nearby riv- ers, including the Missouri River, and cause an envi- ronmental disaster. The tribe launched a cleanup effort in late Jan- uary. The state and Corps were continuing Friday to try to line up additional contractors to speed up the work, according to Corps Capt. Ryan Hignight and Mike Nowatzki, spokesman for Gov. Doug Burgum. "We're running out of time," Hignight said. "We need to ensure that the land is remediated as soon as possible."
