.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Big Picture...
The seven-day pattern shifts around a little, showing a series
of closed lows across the Northern tier of the USA. This
channels the main jet corridor across the Southern USA from Srn
California to the Carolinas. That concentration of jet dynamics
and west-to-east water vapor transport in the South will favor
heavy rain across that area. New England won`t be shut out, with
low level east-northeast flow bringing some moisture into the
area. But the pattern favors limited precipitation mostly
concentrated on Monday and Friday as surface weather systems
pass south of the region.
