Nor'easter Bringing Dangerous Coastal Conditions to the Mid-Atlantic; Pacific Storm Impacting the Southwest U.S.

A Nor'easter well off the East Coast will slowly track north this week and may gain some subtropical characteristics. Strong onshore winds will bring flooding, dangerous marine conditions, and beach erosion along the Mid-Atlantic coast. A Pacific storm is bringing gusty winds, severe thunderstorms, and mountain snow to portions of California and the Southwest U.S. through Thursday. Read More >

Expect south winds to gust 30-40+ mph in much of the area Friday. While relative humidity isn't looking particularly low, if fires do manage to start, they could spread quickly. Outdoor decorations could also be blown around.
Rain is still on track to arrive this weekend, but trends are toward it arriving later in the weekend, with much of the area remaining dry on Saturday. Instead, highest chances now hold off until Sunday night into Monday.
