Will this winter be as snowy as last? Is Texas expected to get another snowstorm? Will winter precipitation help with the drought out West?
January’s Flip
The Great Lakes, Midwest, and Ohio Valley will experience a cold and snowy January, with a blizzard forecast for the Northern Plains and Rockies later in the month.
February’s Flop
In sharp contrast, February will be a much quieter month in terms of storminess across much of the nation, especially the eastern third. However, expect a “winter whopper” for parts of the Northeast and Ohio Valley toward the end of the month.
Will Another Storm Hit Texas?
No Drought Relief Out West
The West can expect some hefty storms moving inland from the Pacific during the second week of January and the end of February, but they most likely won’t alleviate the drought conditions that area is experiencing.
Cold?
