Short Range Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 245 PM EDT Mon May 13 2019 Valid 00Z Tue May 14 2019 - 00Z Thu May 16 2019 ...Late season accumulating snows possible in the higher elevations of northern New York State and New England... ...A drier pattern for water soaked areas from the Central-Southern Plains and the Central Gulf Coast... ...Wet weather will return to the Pacific Northwest... ...Much below average temperatures expected over the Northeast/New England, while much above average temperatures spread east from the Rockies into the Plains... An amplifying mid to upper level low across the Northeast and deepening surface low pressure off the New England coast will bring stormy weather tonight into Wednesday for much of the Northeast from New York-- State into New England. Temperatures expected to be much below average Tuesday into Wednesday across these area with high temperatures 20 to 25 degrees below average. These cold temperatures will support late season high elevation accumulating snows from the Adirondacks of New York, the Green Mountains of Vermont, White Mountains of New Hampshire into western Maine. In the wake of the low affecting the Northeast, more tranquil weather will persist across areas of the Central to Southern Plains, Central Gulf Coast and east coast that have had much above average precipitation over the past week. Stream flows, however, remain much above average across these regions, with major river flooding occurring along large portions of the Mississippi River. One of the driest areas of the country over the past several weeks has been Northern California into the coastal Pacific Northwest . Some relief from the recent dry pattern across this portion of the nation is on tap this week as rains begin to push into this region late tonight into early Tuesday, followed by another surge of moderate to heavy precipitation Tuesday night into Wednesday. Ahead of the wet weather expected to impact the west coast, much above average temperatures are expected to persist into Wednesday from the Northern Great Basin, Rockies and into much of the Plains. Closer to the coast, the previously mentioned increasingly wet pattern will also be accompanied by below average temperatures Tuesday and Wednesday.
