Northwest Rain and Snow Persist as Southern Flood Risks and Eastern Freezes Develop
Pacific Northwest
Several rounds of rainfall and high elevation snow will continue across the Pacific Northwest and into northern California through the weekend. A system offshore supports widespread rain and mountain snow, with localized flooding possible in northwest Washington on Saturday, November 14th. Gusty winds, high surf, and hazardous coastal conditions remain a concern, and another round of precipitation arrives on Sunday, November 15th.
Intermountain West
The front will continue moving inland, shifting showers and mountain snow across the Intermountain West and Four Corners through the weekend. Higher elevations can expect modest snow that may affect mountain travel.
Southwest
Chances of rainfall and modest mountain snow will spread across the Southwest as the system tracks eastward over the Four Corners and nearby areas into the weekend.
Southern Plains
Heavy rainfall and flash flooding risks will focus over the Southern Plains on Saturday, November 14th. Widespread showers and isolated thunderstorms are expected as moisture moves in from the Gulf, so watch low water crossings and already wet areas.
Lower Mississippi
By Sunday, November 15th, the heavy rain and flash flooding risk will shift into the Lower Mississippi Valley and Coastal Texas. A developing wave of low pressure along a front will bring more showers, so avoid flooded roads and monitor local streams.
Great Lakes
Lake-effect rain and snow showers will continue downwind of the Great Lakes as colder air remains in place. Scattered showers will also affect the Ohio Valley, with a possible rain-to-snow change over higher elevations that could impact travel.
Northeast
Scattered showers are expected across the Northeast, and colder temperatures will allow a rain-to-snow transition over higher elevations. Plan for slick spots in the hills through the weekend.
Southeast
Freeze and frost conditions will spread across the Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, and Lower Mississippi Valley into Sunday morning, November 15th. Frost Advisories and Freeze Warnings remain in effect through Sunday morning, so protect plants and watch for icy patches on bridges and roads.
