At the end of the upcoming weekend, a very cold air quality will flood the Northeast states and will look cold on average next week on 2/3 of the eastern country. Map provides ECMWF, Weathermodels.com (Dr. Ryan Maue, X)
Overview
A major storm system will destroy Western countries in the next few days, then will hike nationwide this weekend and wreaking havoc in eastern states. In California, low-lying coastal areas from Oregon to the Mexican border, rainfall will be high in the coming days, and snow will be measured by the feet of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. By the early stages of the upcoming weekend, this same storm system will flood the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys, and then there may be heavy snowfall in the interior of New York State and New England Sunday.
In the mid-Atlantic region, there will be a lot of rain this weekend. However, it is likely to be snowed before the front end and it may be possible. Especially in the north of the PA/MD border. Cold air will pour into eastern states after the storm system this weekend, and next week, it does look cold next week in two-thirds of the eastern part of the country. By mid-next week, low pressure could be a major threat to the East Coast storm by Wednesday or Thursday, with the help of a flood of water from the bay.

In the next few days, a major storm will affect the western United States, with heavy rainfall in low-lying coastal areas and substantial snowfall at higher altitudes. In fact, snowfall will be measured by feet in the next few days, with many Rocky Mountains going to fall in many Rocky Mountain states in Eastern California. Map provided NOAA, tropicalTidbits.com
A few storms cross the country for the next few days
In the next few days, a powerful storm system will bring California to crack down on it, with heavy rainfall along the low-lying coastal areas from the city of Crescent to the south. During this event, heavy snowfall will fall at higher elevations in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, a few feet in some places late in the weekend. The same storm system will then cross the country and arrive in Eastern State this weekend, bringing flooding to certain areas such as Ohio and Tennessee Valley on Saturday, including inside New York State and New England on Sunday A lot of snow was coming to other areas on Sunday.

There will be a lot of rainfall on the DC to Philly-to-nyc corridor over the weekend; however, as the accumulation on the tables, the front end may also be rapidly snowing. Especially in the north of the PA/MD border. Any snow or sleet that does fall when the weekend event starts will turn into rain on Saturday night and continue on Sundays, and sometimes some of the rain can be heavy.

In the mid-Atlantic region, weekend weather activities range from cold and possible snow accumulation at the front end to mild, with heavy rainfall at the middle and back ends. All of this will then pour in very cold air on Sunday night and Monday, and will be very cold in most areas, including the Mid-Atlantic region in the first half of next week. On Saturday, precipitation may start to snow rapidly. Especially in the northern part of the PA/MD border. In eastern Pennsylvania, central and northern New Jersey, in the central area of New York City and in the afternoon hours, a few inches to several inches are possible. Even in the DC Metro area, you can experience some snow and/or sleet at the start of the weekend activities around the middle of the weekend, with the tables coated around. Later in the day, precipitation will be mixed with rain and then converted to rain, which will continue on Saturday night and Sunday morning. Some rainfalls on Saturday night and Sunday mornings can sometimes be heavy and a burst of thunder cannot be ruled out. By late Sunday, strong low pressure to the north will drag into the cold front in the area, and the weather may drop from mild levels reached earlier in the day to Sunday/Sunday evening.

Madden-Julian oscillation or MJO is expected to be in the next few weeks (indicated by arrows, shown with left) and these specific phases are usually associated with lower normal conditions throughout the central and central areas.

Very cold next week… Possible East Coast storm threat mid-week
The first half of next week will look very cold in most of our central and eastern parts, especially with the cold air centered around the central states. The outlook for cold weather in the eastern half of the United States next week is supported by movements of tropical disturbances, which are tracked by meteorologists using a remote connection index, called Madden-Julian oscillation or MJO. It can provide clues about the national temperature pattern based on its location (or “stage”) at a given time of year.

Next week is destined to be very cold in most parts of the country, and this cold normal state may take us all the way to March. From February 20 to February 27, the 2-meter temperature anomaly prediction graph shown here depicts sub-normal temperatures in the eastern half of the United States, focusing on the Midwest/Ohio Valley.

During this phase of winter, temperatures are usually lower than normal throughout the central and eastern states when MJO enters phase 8 and phase 1. Indeed, it seems that MJO will enter Phase 8 in the next day or so, and then enter Phase 1 around February 22… This cold normal pattern may even last until March.

Overall activity weather patterns across the country will continue for at least most of next week in recent weeks, with one support factor being a strong “jet streak” campaign in the upper part of the atmosphere. This forecast graph shows 250 mbar winds on the next Wednesday night on February 19 (February 19), indicating that strong surface low pressure may occur near the mid-Atlantic coastline.

By late Tuesday next week, moisture will push north into the Mississippi Valley, causing snow to fall in the north and rain to the south. The low pressure in the northern Gulf region will then migrate to the northeast, heading towards the Atlantic coast, which will encounter a lot of cold air throughout the Atlantic. The system’s development along the East Coast remains to be seen, but the threat has a significant impact in the mid-Atlantic region in the middle or later next week… Stay tuned.
