Onshore flow continued to bring widespread rain and high-elevation snow to the West Coast during the first week of the New Year. These areas of improvement are limited to the lower elevations since snowpack remains slightly below normal at the higher elevations. Control the animation using the slide bar found beneath the weather map.

Increased chances for above normal temperatures are forecast for much of Alaska. Since 7-day precipitation amounts averaged below normal across northern Vermont and northwest Maine, those existing D0 areas were maintained.

A strong upper-level low resulted in surface low development along the western Gulf Coast on January 3. This low pressure system then tracked current us weather map to the mid-Atlantic by January 5, maintaining excessive wetness across much of the lower Mississippi Valley and Southeast. However, southern Florida remained mostly dry as short-term dryness worsened. Onshore flow returned to the West Coast by January 5, resulting in rain and high-elevation snow. Although widespread precipitation occurred across coastal areas of Washington, Oregon, and northern California, 7-day amounts averaged below normal north of Eureka, California. Above-average precipitation amounts were observed across the southern half of California and the Southwest. As an area of upper-level low pressure shifted east across the western U. The heaviest weekly amounts more than 1 inch, liquid equivalent were recorded from Wisconsin north to the upper peninsula of Michigan. Since 7-day precipitation amounts averaged below normal across northern Vermont and northwest Maine, those existing D0 areas were maintained. This rainfall maintained saturated soils with soil moisture rankings above the 95th percentile throughout much of this region, along and north of the Gulf Coast. Soil moisture ranks in the highest 99th percentile from the southern Appalachians north to the mid-Atlantic. Minor to moderate river flooding continues across the eastern Carolinas, southern Georgia, the Florida Panhandle, and parts of Alabama. A trailing cold front triggered scattered convection with rainfall amounts of 0. As of January 7, water levels in Lake Okeechobee were approximately 2 feet below normal. Since it is typically dry this time of year, there are no impacts apparent at this time to support the introduction of severe drought D2. This area will be closely monitored for future degradation. Widespread moderate to heavy precipitation 0. The recent precipitation during an ideal time of year for soil moisture recharge resulted in the removal of any lingering abnormal dryness D0 across northeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. However, the long-term drought area in the Texas Panhandle remained mostly west of the heavier precipitation and south Texas remained dry during the past week. Short-term abnormal dryness D0 and moderate drought D1 were expanded in southern Texas where 90-day deficits ranged from 1 to 4 inches. Although little to no precipitation less than 0. A small area of abnormal dryness D0 exists across northwestern Minnesota where the ground is frozen and snow-covered Following a week of widespread snowfall, mostly dry weather prevailed across the northern and central Great Plains. Based on a reassessment of departure from normal precipitation at varying time ranges 60 days to 6 monthsmoderate drought was reduced in coverage across North Dakota and limited to areas with the largest deficits. Elsewhere, across the Dakotas, no changes were made to the ongoing D0 areas. Beneficial precipitation, with locally heavy high-elevation snow, continued across the Four Corners region into the first week of the New Year. Small areas of improvement also were made across southwest Colorado. Cortez in Montezuma County has received about an inch above normal precipitation since the beginning of the water year, supporting an upgrade from D4 to D3. In the San Luis Valley, recent precipitation prompted an improvement from D3 to D2. These areas of improvement are limited to the lower elevations since snowpack remains slightly below normal at the higher elevations. During the past week, local precipitation amounts exceeded 1 inch liquid equivalent in Unitah County, Utah where D3 was improved to D2. Farther to the north and east, little to no precipitation and above-average temperatures resulted in an increase in D1 across Adams and El Paso counties of north-central Colorado and an expansion of D0 from north-central Colorado into southern Wyoming. However, it has remained dry since that time and D0 may need to be reintroduced in the coming weeks. Onshore flow continued to bring widespread rain and high-elevation snow to the West Coast during the first week of the New Year. Santa Barbara and Ventura counties received another round of heavy precipitation locally more than 2 inches this past week, producing mud slides in burn-scarred hillsides. An increase in water storage on Cachuma Reservoir was noted. Recent heavy precipitation and only small precipitation deficits at 60 days prompted removal of abnormal dryness across parts of western Washington. Since 6-month precipitation deficits remain in excess of 16 inches across the ongoing long-term drought areas of the southeast Alaska Panhandle, no improvements were made this past week. An expansion of abnormal dryness D0 and moderate drought D1 was based on continued dryness across the leeward sides of the Hawaiian Islands. Moderate drought was expanded on Kauai, Maui, and the Big Island, while it was introduced on western Oahu. The abnormal dryness was degraded to moderate drought on Lanai and Kahoolawe. This increase in coverage of D0 and D1 is consistent with a continuation of suppressed rainfall, typically associated with an emerging El Nino. In Puerto Rico, mostly dry weather persisted with short-term deficits continuing to increase. D0 was expanded from the previous week to coincide with areas of below-average rainfall during the past 30 to 60 days. D1 was also expanded across the central interior and added to the southwest corner where 60-day rainfall has averaged 25 to 50 percent of normal. Looking Ahead Temperatures are forecast to average near to slightly below normal across the southern tier of the continental U. Short-term dryness is likely to increase across south Florida and the lower Rio Grande Valley through mid-January. Mostly dry weather is also forecast for the northern half of the Rockies extending east to the northern Great Plains and upper Mississippi Valley. Much above-normal temperatures are likely to accompany the dry weather across these areas. Elsewhere, additional rain and high-elevation snow is anticipated for California as onshore flow persists. Precipitation is forecast to average near to below-normal across the Alaska Panhandle during the next 5 days, while below-normal rainfall is likely to continue for the Hawaiian Islands. The most likely areas to experience below normal precipitation are parts of the Northeast and Florida Peninsula. The highest probabilities for above normal temperatures are current us weather map along current us weather map West Coast and central to southern high Plains, while near to below normal temperatures are favored across the eastern U. Increased chances for above normal temperatures are forecast for much of Alaska. Above normal precipitation is favored for the Aleutians and southwest mainland Alaska, while near to below normal precipitation is most likely across the remainder of Alaska. Drought Classification The Drought Monitor summary map identifies general areas of drought and labels them by intensity. D1 is the least intense level and D4 the most intense. Drought is defined as a moisture deficit bad enough to have social, environmental or economic effects. D0 areas are not in drought, but are experiencing abnormally dry conditions that could turn into drought or are recovering from drought but are not yet back to normal. We generally include a description on the current us weather map of what the primary physical effects are for short- and long-term drought.

Much above-normal temperatures are likely to accompany the dry weather across these areas.

Soil moisture ranks in the highest 99th percentile from the southern Appalachians north to the mid-Atlantic. Elsewhere, additional rain and high-elevation snow is anticipated for California as onshore flow persists. Looking Ahead Temperatures are forecast to average near to slightly below normal across the southern tier of the continental U. We generally include a description on the map of what the primary physical effects are for short- and long-term drought. Onshore flow continued to bring widespread rain and high-elevation snow to the West Coast during the first week of the New Year. Weather observations at Tehran's Mehrabad International Airport reported rain and 7 km 4.
