The National Weather Service, its task simplified by a strengthening la Nina cool patch in the Pacific Ocean, has issued its winter weather forecast for the United States. The Pacific Northwest is expected to be substantially colder and wetter than usual, the Southwest hotter and drier and conditions elsewhere mostly an unpredictable mishmash.
For the full and detailed predictions, go here.
Fall is starting up for real this weekend. Rather predictable.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to expect in fly-over country... been close to 20 years since I have been in this part of the country (stationed @ Ft. Riley, Ks). With all these hills, I am hoping it goes easy on the snow!!
ReplyDeleteHmmm ... Looks like they're predicting "somewhat drier" in my neck of the woods. Could be worse ...!
