Predictive Services Discussion: 

A strong storm will move through the West through this weekend, with breezy and dry conditions across the 

Desert Southwest. Heavy precipitation will affect northern and central California, with heavy snow and blizzard 

conditions in the Sierra, while moderate precipitation spreads across the northern two-thirds of the West. A series 

of weaker storms will bring periods of light to moderate precipitation to the northern half of the West next week, 

while the southern half of the West is breezy and dry. Breezy and dry westerly winds will affect the central and 

southern Plains to the Mid-Mississippi Valley this weekend, with the strongest winds Sunday and widespread 

elevated to critical conditions. Winds will continue across the Trans Pecos and Big Bend Monday. Dry and windy 

conditions are likely to return late next week for the southern High Plains. Two strong storms will bring moderate 

to heavy rain to much of the Southeast into the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, the first today and tomorrow with 

another mid to late next week. Lighter precipitation is forecast for the northern Plains into the Great Lakes ealry 

next week, but much of the central and southern Plains is forecast to remain dry through mid-next week. Cold 

and generally dry conditions will continue for Alaska, while Hawai’i experiences moderate to strong trade winds 

and numerous showers for windward areas, with a few showers moving into leeward areas, especially early next 

week.
