Weather Outlook
For the West, upper-level ridging over California and the Southwest will continue to bring dry conditions and above normal temperatures. In the northern third of the West, a faster westerly flow aloft will result in periods of precipitation and above normal temperatures. A strong atmospheric river is expected next week with heavy rain for the Northwest and northern Rockies, with snow levels remaining high. Cold temperatures will continue across Alaska with localized breezy northeast winds.
