...Heavy snow possible over the Northern Cascades...
...Heavy rain and flash flooding possible across south Texas this
weekend...
A low pressure system will continue to move inland across British Columbia
today, pulling a cold front across much of the Pacific Northwest,
Intermountain West, Northern California and Northern Rockies through the
weekend. Nearly continuous onshore flow will keep rain over the coastal
areas of Washington, Oregon, and eventually northern California-- with
snow, likely heavy at times, expected to spread from the Cascades and
eastward during this time. Winter Weather Advisories and Winter Storm
Warnings are currently in effect for the Coastal Range where snow
accumulations in in excess of a foot are possible through this evening.
Winter Storm Watches are also in effect for much of northern California
and the Sierra Nevada Mountains from Saturday afternoon through at least
Sunday evening.
The remnants of a weak clipper system will continue to move through New
England today, bringing the potential for scattered light snow showers
across portions of the northern Appalachians, northern Mid Atlantic, and
the Northeast during this time. Areas downwind of the Great Lakes may also
see snow showers today, lingering into the overnight.
A surge of warm, moist air will flow inland from the Gulf of Mexico on the
backside of a departing low Saturday. This will lead to rain showers
developing across Southern Texas tonight, and spreading across the Lower
Mississippi Valley throughout the day Saturday. South Texas could have
significant rainfall totals and/or high rainfall rates that may lead to
flash flooding. A slight risk for excessive rainfall is in effect for this
area during the day Saturday. Please refer to the WPC excessive rainfall
outlook for additional information on the threat for flash flooding.
