Weather Underground Forecast for Friday,April 22,2016
A frontal system will transition across the eastern third of the country on Friday, while a Pacific system affects the Northwest.
An area of low pressure will trek northeastward over the eastern Great Lakes and New England. A cold frontal boundary associated with this system will stretch south southwestward. This frontal boundary will be the focal point for stormy conditions. Numerous areas of rain and thunderstorms will fire up across the Deep South, the Southeast, the Mid-Atlantic, the Midwest and the Northeast. The heaviest rain is expected over the Mid-Atlantic. Dry air will settle in over the Plains and the Mississippi Valley, which will be much needed after several days of heavy rain.
Meanwhile, a Pacific low pressure system will transition eastward across the Northwest. A cold frontal boundary extending southward will produce moderate rain and high elevation snow across the Pacific Northwest, northern California, the Great Basin and the Intermountain West. Winter storm watches are in place for the northern Sierra Nevada. Snow accumulation will range between 4 to 8 inches above 6,000 feet, while 12 to 18 inches will be possible along the highest peaks. Warm and dry weather will persist across the Desert Southwest on Friday. Temperatures will range between the upper 80s and 90s from southern California to New Mexico.
