Predictive Services Discussion:

Upper-level troughing will break down the ridge over the West this weekend, with scattered precipitation 

expected on portions of the West Coast. Another upper-level trough will move into the West late this weekend 

and deepen over the West into mid-next week. This will lead to more widespread precipitation over the West and 

below normal temperatures, including snow to lower elevations and farther south across the Intermountain West. 

Gusty offshore winds are likely this morning in southern California and possibly again Sunday night and midnext week. However, given recent and forecast precipitation, significant fire potential is expected to remain low. 

Gusty, dry northerly winds are also expected in portions of the Desert Southwest, southern High Plains, and 

south Texas this weekend into early next week. Dry and windy conditions are likely again mid to late next week 

on the southern and central High Plains and portions of the Southwest, which could lead to elevated to critical 

fire weather conditions and an increase of significant fire potential. 

Widespread and potentially heavy rain are likely in portions of the Southeast this weekend and possibly again 

mid to late next week from the southern Plains into the Southeast. However, portions of Florida Peninsula may 

receive little to no precipitation, with possible elevated fire weather conditions early next week. Additionally, 

precipitation is likely across much of the central and eastern US mid to late next week as an upper-level trough 

exits the West.
