**Chipping away at the dry conditions in the eastern US...a couple bouts of rain this week...additional threats ahead**

Paul Dorian

It has been unusually dry across much of the eastern US during the past several months with a focus on the Florida Peninsula, but we have been chipping away at these conditions in recent weeks and there are likely to be additional beneficial rainfall events during the new couple of weeks. Rain is falling today throughout much of the Mid-Atlantic region and Northeast US – the second bout of rain this week – and rain is currently falling across portions of the northern Gulf region. This area of Gulf moisture will push east during the next few days and then take a turn to the north early next week and ride up slowly along the Atlantic seaboard. As a result, it appears there will be more beneficial rainfall in the Mid-Atlantic region and Northeast US from later Tuesday into Thursday further alleviating the dry conditions and additional rain threats exist later this month in an on-going active pattern.

6:15 AM | *From unusually chilly to unseasonably warm*

Paul Dorian

After a few days of unseasonably chilly weather, the pattern turns much warmer beginning today and lasting through at least the first half of next week. Temperatures can peak near 70 degrees this afternoon - some 10-15 degrees higher than yesterday – and can climb into the 80’s early next week.  The atmosphere will remain somewhat unstable during the next few days with an afternoon/evening shower or thunderstorm on the table.

6:15 AM | **Major spring storm winds down today...much warmer weather on the way for the late week, weekend, and early part of next week**

Paul Dorian

The impact from a major spring storm will wind down today and it’ll turn out to be milder compared to the chill of yesterday with afternoon highs not far from 60 degrees. Even warmer weather arrives on Thursday and continues into the weekend with afternoon highs of 70+ degrees and then 80+ degrees is possible by early next week. While much of the time will be rain-free, there can be isolated showers each of the next few afternoons as the atmosphere will remain somewhat unstable.

Paul Dorian

A major spring storm will impact Colorado today and tonight with periods of rain in the metro area and accumulating snow in the Front Range mountains and higher foothills...system winds down on Wednesday. Warmer weather moves into the area on Thursday and continues into the weekend, and there can be a couple of showers and thunderstorms on each of those days.

7:00 AM | ***Major spring storm to bring significant snow to the Front Range mountains and higher foothills...rain in Denver metro***

Paul Dorian

A major spring storm is unfolding for Colorado that is likely to bring significant rainfall to the metro region and substantial snow to the Front Range mountains and higher foothills. The storm gets underway today and reaches a peak on Tuesday with heavy rain and/or snow depending on location. Warmer weather moves into the area later in the week and continues into the weekend, and there can be few showers and thunderstorms on each of those days.

6:15 AM | **A very unsettled pattern unfolds during the first half of next...heavy showers and strong storms on the table**

Paul Dorian

It stays relatively dry around here through Saturday, but the late weekend and first half of next week become very unsettled with showers and thunderstorms on the table. A strong upper-level low will combine with an incoming colder-than-normal air mass to destabilize the atmosphere during the first half of next week which can result in rain, heavy at times, and the potential for some strong-to-severe thunderstorm activity.

**A prolonged and significant rain event coming to the Mid-Atlantic region...a classic “omega-block” weather pattern**

Paul Dorian

The change of calendar to the month of May is bringing a changing weather pattern that is likely to result in a prolonged and significant rain event for the Mid-Atlantic region...something not seen in these parts in quite awhile. While there can be scattered showers and thunderstorms between tonight and late Saturday, the main event is likely to begin on Saturday night with widespread showers and thunderstorms and occasional rain will be a threat on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and perhaps Wednesday as well in the Mid-Atlantic region to go along with cooler conditions. The upper part of the atmosphere is evolving into a classic “omega-block” pattern which will allow for cooler and rainy weather to stick around for several days in the Mid-Atlantic region, and this should alleviate drought and fire-hazard conditions endured during the past several weeks.
