Summary of Forecasts and Hazards

US Hazards Outlook
NWS Climate Prediction Center College Park MD
300 PM EDT April 03 2025

Synopsis: Mid-level low pressure is forecast across the eastern contiguous U.S. (CONUS) early in week-2, with dynamical models continuing to indicate an area of surface low pressure forming along the Eastern Seaboard. While below-normal temperatures continue to be likely across much of the East, moderation is likely compared to the late week-1 period and it is less likely minimum temperatures will cause any additional impacts to vegetation in week-2. Mid-level high pressure is forecast to shift across the central CONUS, with models trending stronger with mid-level low pressure upstream across the Northwest. This favors increasing pressure gradients and elevated wind speeds across much of the Great Plains and Upper and Middle Mississippi Valley, which in combination with above-normal temperatures and dry soils, can increase the wildfire risk over some of these areas. An offshore flow pattern is predicted to develop across California.

Hazards
  • Slight risk of heavy precipitation across coastal portions of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, Fri-Sun, Apr 11-13.
  • Slight risk of high winds across much of the Great Plains and Upper and Middle Mississippi Valley, Fri-Mon, Apr 11-14.
  • Slight risk of high winds across portions of California, Fri-Mon, Apr 11-14.
