8-14 day prediction for precipitation across the United States
The 8-14 day precipitation outlook (Dec 25-31) shows a 1-in-3 chance for above normal precip for the eastern Carolinas. With colder than normal temps expected, we'll be keeping a close eye on things. The chance for winter wx appears to be low, but not zero! #ilmwx #ncwx #scwx

Arctic air will infiltrate the Plains & Intermountain West. Moisture combined with this cold air will bring heavy NW mountain snow & a wintry mix to the Plains. Heavy snow & Lake Effect snow in the Northeast. A Gulf Coast system may produce locally heavy to excessive rain.

Nov 16 @ 1:55 AM - Skies cleared enough to afford most of South Florida a view of the Artemis I launch from the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral. Here is the view from NWS Miami/NHC on the campus of Florida International University. #flwx

"It’s very likely that La Niña will last through the winter (December­–February), with a transition to ENSO-neutral (neither La Niña nor El Niño) expected during February–April." More Info: climate.gov/news-features/bl…
As you may have guessed, La Niña is still in charge in the tropical Pacific. For the forecast: There’s a 76% chance La Niña will be present this winter, with a transition to neutral favored for spring. climate.gov/news-features/bl…

Lots of rain around Delaware, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey today, it’s a great time to record some water level observations on the coast, or some weather observations. Stay dry observers! instagram.com/p/CcDuFCbJNdO/…
