PROGNOSTIC DISCUSSION FOR 6 TO 10 AND 8 TO 14 DAY OUTLOOKS
NWS CLIMATE PREDICTION CENTER COLLEGE PARK, MD
300 PM EST SAT DECEMBER 20 2025
6-10 DAY OUTLOOK FOR DEC 26 - 30 2025
A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED PATTERN IS FORECAST FOR THE 6-10 DAY PERIOD ACROSS NORTH
AMERICA AND ADJACENT AREAS. A STRONG MID-LEVEL RIDGE IS FORECAST TO BE CENTERED
ACROSS THE ALEUTIAN ISLANDS AND NORTH PACIFIC. DOWNSTREAM, NEGATIVE 500-HPA
HEIGHT ANOMALIES AND MID-LEVEL TROUGHING ARE FORECAST FROM SOUTHEAST ALASKA
SOUTHWARD OFFSHORE OF THE WESTERN CONTIGUOUS U.S. (CONUS). THIS SET-UP FAVORS
CONTINUING EPISODES OF STRONG PACIFIC FLOW AND STORMINESS IN THE WESTERN CONUS.
AN EXPANSIVE AREA OF POSITIVE 500-HPA HEIGHT ANOMALIES IS FORECAST TO BE
CENTERED NEAR THE CENTRAL CONUS, AND ANOTHER AMPLIFIED POSITIVE MEAN 500-HPA
ANOMALY IS EXPECTED OVER THE NORTHEASTERN ATLANTIC, WITH SOME MID-LEVEL
TROUGHING IN BETWEEN THESE TWO FEATURES, IN THE NORTHWESTERN ATLANTIC.
IN THE MANUAL BLEND, THE LOCATIONS OF THE MOST ANOMALOUS MEAN 500-HPA HEIGHTS
IN THIS HIGHLY AMPLIFIED PATTERN ARE ESSENTIALLY UNCHANGED FROM YESTERDAY, WITH
MEAN ANOMALIES EXCEEDING +390 M OVER THE WESTERNMOST ALEUTIANS AND +360 M SOUTH
OF ICELAND. THE NEGATIVE ANOMALIES MAXIMIZED OVER THE ALASKAN PANHANDLE ARE
ALSO SLIGHTLY LESS AMPLIFIED THAN YESTERDAY (-180 M) WHILE THE PATTERN OVER AND
ADJACENT TO THE CONUS IS SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY'S BLEND. SOMEWHAT BELOW NORMAL
500-HPA HEIGHTS EXTEND ALONG THE WESTERN TIER OF THE CONUS, WITH ANOMALIES
BELOW -30 M FROM WEST-CENTRAL CALIFORNIA INTO THE ADJACENT PACIFIC. THIS
FEATURE IS A LITTLE LESS AMPLIFIED THAN YESTERDAY, WITH MORE SEPARATION BETWEEN
IT AND THE STRONGER NEGATIVE ANOMALY CENTERED NEAR SOUTHEAST ALASKA. FARTHER
EAST, THE AMPLITUDE OF THE CENTRAL CONUS FLAT RIDGE IS ALMOST UNCHANGED,
EXCEEDING +120 M IN AND AROUND THE MISSISSIPPI/OHIO RIVERS' CONFLUENCE.
MEANWHILE, THE TROUGHING OVER AND NEAR THE NORTHWESTERN ATLANTIC FEATURES MEAN
HEIGHTS A BIT LOWER THAN YESTERDAY, WITH ANOMALIES OF -60 M ALONG THE EASTERN
FRINGE OF MAINE. BY THE END OF THE PERIOD, THE ENSEMBLE MEANS MAINTAIN THE TWO
AMPLIFIED MID-LEVEL RIDGES NEAR THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS AND SOUTH OF ICELAND
WHILE A LITTLE PROGRESSION TAKES PLACE AT LOWER LATITUDES, WITH MODELS SHOWING
THE RELATIVELY WEAK TROUGH NEAR THE SOUTHWEST DRIFTING EASTWARD AND WEAKENING
WHILE 500-HPA HEIGHTS BUILD NORTHEASTWARD TOWARD THE GREAT LAKES, PUSHING THE
NEGATIVE HEIGHT ANOMALIES FROM THE NORTHEASTERN CONUS INTO ATLANTIC CANADA.
MEANWHILE, THE STRONG TROUGH CENTERED NEAR SOUTHEAST ALASKA BEGINS TO DIG
SOUTHEASTWARD, LOWERING HEIGHTS IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. DIFFERENCES REMAIN IN
THE SOUTHWESTERN CONUS, WHERE THE ENSEMBLE MEANS ARE SLIGHTLY AT ODDS REGARDING
HOW MUCH 500-HPA HEIGHTS INCREASE TOWARD DAY 10 (NEW YEAR'S EVE). THE CANADIAN
ENSEMBLE (CNENS) LIFTS HEIGHTS ABOVE NORMAL IN THE SOUTHWEST WHILE THE OTHER
TWO ENSEMBLE MEANS REMAIN CLOSER TO NORMAL. THIS HAS SOME IMPLICATIONS ON
SENSIBLE WEATHER IN THE REGION, BUT THE SOLUTIONS OF ALL 3 ENSEMBLE MEANS WOULD
SERVE TO REDUCE PRECIPITATION TOTALS TOWARD THE END OF THE PERIOD IN AND NEAR
CALIFORNIA WHILE STRONGER PACIFIC FLOW AND ATMOSPHERIC RIVER ACTIVITY
RE-DEVELOPS IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. FARTHER SOUTH, A 500-HPA RIDGE OVER
HAWAII EARLY IN THE PERIOD IS EXPECTED TO DRIFT EASTWARD AND DEAMPLIFY AS
BELOW-NORMAL 500-HPA HEIGHTS ENCROACH ON THE STATE FROM THE WEST. THIS PLACES
THE STATE DOWNSTREAM FROM A MID-LEVEL TROUGH AXIS UNDER CYCLONICALLY-CURVED
500-HPA FLOW.
ACROSS THE CONUS, BROADLY POSITIVE 500-HPA HEIGHT ANOMALIES AND ENHANCED MILD
PACIFIC FLOW SHOULD RESULT IN ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES ACROSS MOST OF THE
CONUS. PROBABILITIES FOR ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES EXCEED 90% OVER MUCH OF THE
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS, AND SOME ENHANCEMENT IN THE ODDS FOR ABOVE-NORMAL
TEMPERATURES COVERS ALMOST THE ENTIRE CONUS, EXCEPT THE NORTHEAST WHERE
MID-LEVEL HEIGHTS NEAR THE NORTHWEST ATLANTIC MID-LEVEL TROUGH ARE SLIGHTLY
BELOW NORMAL. IN CONTRAST TO THE CONUS, BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED
TO BE PERSISTENT AND WIDESPREAD ACROSS ALL OF ALASKA OUTSIDE THE WESTERN
ALEUTIANS, ALTHOUGH THERE MAY BE A BRIEF PERIOD OF SLIGHTLY MILDER CONDITIONS
LATE IN THE PERIOD. ODDS FOR SUBNORMAL TEMPERATURES EXCEED 80 PERCENT OVER
SOUTH-CENTRAL AND UPPER SOUTHEAST ALASKA. IN HAWAII, ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES
ARE FAVORED, CONSISTENT WITH THE CONSOLIDATION FORECAST.
THE PERSISTENT MID-LEVEL TROUGH AXIS NEAR THE WEST COAST CENTERED NEAR
SOUTHEAST ALASKA FAVORS CONTINUING EPISODES OF STORMINESS AND SOME ATMOSPHERIC
RIVER ACTIVITY IN THE WESTERN CONUS. BUILDING HEIGHTS IN CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN
PARTS OF THE WEST LATER IN THE PERIOD SHOULD FAVOR DRIER WEATHER THERE,
SHIFTING THE FOCUS OF STORMINESS AND ATMOSPHERIC RIVER ACTIVITY NORTHWARD INTO
THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST BY THE END OF THE PERIOD. THE ENHANCEMENT OF THE ODDS FOR
ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION ARE SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN YESTERDAY OVER AND NEAR
CALIFORNIA, REFLECTING THE ANTICIPATED NORTHWARD SHIFT OF THE HIGHEST
PROBABILITIES FOR HEAVY PRECIPITATION, ALONG WITH THE EASTWARD DRIFT AND
DISSIPATION OF THE MID-LEVEL TROUGH INITIALLY JUST OFF THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
COAST. THE HIGHEST CHANCES FOR ABOVE NORMAL PRECIPITATION (OVER 50 PERCENT)
EXTEND ACROSS MUCH OF THE SOUTHWEST AS WELL AS THE NORTHERN REACHES OF
WASHINGTON, WHERE THE STRONG MID-LEVEL TROUGH TO THE NORTHWEST BEGINS TO
ENCROACH, INCREASING THE ODDS OF RENEWED ATMOSPHERIC RIVER ACTIVITY LATE. IN
CONTRAST, BELOW NORMAL PRECIPITATION IS FAVORED OVER MUCH OF THE SOUTHEASTERN
CONUS AND ALONG MUCH OF THE IMMEDIATE EASTERN SEABOARD, WITH MID-LEVEL RIDGING
LIMITING PRECIPITATION POTENTIAL. IN ALASKA, NEAR NORMAL PRECIPITATION IS
FAVORED FOR THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN MAINLAND WHILE DRIER THAN NORMAL WEATHER
IS MORE LIKELY FARTHER SOUTH DOWNSTREAM FROM THE STRONG MID-LEVEL RIDGE AND
UPSTREAM FROM THE SOUTHEAST ALASKA NEGATIVE HEIGHT ANOMALY CENTER. A SLIGHT
TILT TOWARDS ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION IS NOTED FOR EXTREME SOUTHEASTERN
ALASKA, WHICH SHOULD BE JUST DOWNSTREAM OF THE MEAN MID-LEVEL TROUGH AXIS.
FARTHER SOUTH, ODDS FOR SURPLUS PRECIPITATION INCREASE FROM EAST TO WEST ACROSS
HAWAII IN CONCERT WITH THE ENCROACHMENT OF BELOW-NORMAL 500-HPA HEIGHTS FROM
THE WEST. CHANCES FOR UNUSUALLY WET WEATHER EXCEED 60 PERCENT OVER THE
WESTERNMOST ISLANDS OF KAUAI AND NIIHAU.
THE OFFICIAL 6-10 DAY 500-HPA HEIGHT BLEND CONSISTS OF 20% OF TODAY'S 6Z GFS
ENSEMBLE MEAN CENTERED ON DAY 8, 20% OF TODAY'S 0Z EUROPEAN ENSEMBLE MEAN
CENTERED ON DAY 8, 30% OF TODAY'S OPERATIONAL 0Z ECMWF CENTERED ON DAY 8, AND
30% OF TODAY'S 0Z CANADIAN ENSEMBLE MEAN CENTERED ON DAY 8
FORECAST CONFIDENCE FOR THE 6-10 DAY PERIOD: ABOVE AVERAGE, 4 OUT OF 5, DUE TO
GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT AND EXCELLENT MODEL CONSISTENCY OVER THE PAST SEVERAL
DAYS, MAINTAINING A STABLE, AMPLIFIED MID-LEVEL PATTERN OVER THE NORTHERN
WESTERN HEMISPHERE. SOME UNCERTAINTIES IN THE EVOLUTION OF THE 500-HPA HEIGHT
PATTERN OVER AND NEAR THE WESTERN CONUS SLIGHTLY LOWERS CONFIDENCE.
8-14 DAY OUTLOOK FOR DEC 28, 2025 - JAN 03, 2026
THE WEEK-2 500-HPA MEAN HEIGHT FORECAST REMAINS CONSISTENT WITH THE 6-10 DAY
PERIOD AND WITH YESTERDAY'S FORECAST. AN AMPLIFIED MEAN MID-LEVEL RIDGE REMAINS
LIKELY OVER THE NORTH PACIFIC AND ALEUTIAN ISLANDS. DOWNSTREAM MEAN MID-LEVEL
TROUGHING IS FORECAST OVER AND NEAR SOUTHEAST ALASKA WHILE THE
MODERATELY-STRONG FLAT MID-LEVEL RIDGE REMAINS ROUGHLY IN PLACE OVER MUCH OF
THE CONUS. A FAIRLY WEAK MEAN TROUGH IS STILL ANTICIPATED OFF THE EAST COAST,
LEADING INTO A SECOND STRONG MID-LEVEL RIDGE WITH THE LARGEST POSITIVE 500-HPA
HEIGHT ANOMALIES ANTICIPATED NEAR ICELAND. HOWEVER, SOME UNCERTAINTY IN THE
PREVAILING SENSIBLE WEATHER IS INTRODUCED BY THE DETERMINISTIC EUROPEAN (ECMWF)
MODEL, WHICH SHOWS THE POTENTIAL EFFECT OF INDIVIDUAL FEATURES EJECTED FROM THE
STRONG AND STABLE MEAN MID-LEVEL RIDGE AND TROUGH POSITIONS. THESE RESULT IN
SOME BRIEF ALTERATIONS IN THE POSITION AND STRENGTH OF THE AMPLIFIED MID-LEVEL
FEATURES BEFORE THE MEAN PATTERN RELOADS LATER IN THE PERIOD, RE-ESTABLISHING
THE PREVAILING HIGH AMPLITUDE FLOW ESTABLISHED PRIOR TO THE 6-10 DAY PERIOD.
THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THE BROADLY PERSISTENT, AMPLIFIED MEAN PATTERN IS
STRONGLY FAVORED TO CONTINUE, BUT HOW INDIVIDUAL FEATURES MAY CAUSE THE 500-HPA
ANOMALY CENTERS AND MID-LEVEL RIDGE/TROUGH AXES TO MEANDER AND/OR VARY IN
AMPLITUDE IS UNCERTAIN, LEADING TO SOME UNCERTAINTY IN THE FORECAST. TO THE
SOUTH, HAWAII WILL LIKELY REMAIN DOWNSTREAM FROM A REGION OF SUBNORMAL 500-HPA
HEIGHTS, KEEPING CYCLONICALLY-CURVED MID-LEVEL FLOW ACROSS THE ISLAND CHAIN.
IN CONCERT WITH THE 500-HPA HEIGHT FORECAST, THE TEMPERATURE FORECAST FOR
WEEK-2 IS QUITE CONSISTENT WITH YESTERDAY AND WITH THE 6-10 DAY PERIOD. ABOVE
NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE FAVORED FOR NEARLY ALL OF THE CONUS WITH THE STRONGEST
CHANCES EXCEEDING 80% OVER PART OF THE SOUTHERN GREAT PLAINS. NEAR NORMAL
TEMPERATURES ARE FAVORED FOR MUCH OF THE IMMEDIATE WEST COAST TIED TO ONSHORE
FLOW BRINGING IN CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION. FOR NEW ENGLAND, UNDER SUBNORMAL
500-HPA HEIGHTS JUST UPSTREAM FROM A MODERATE MEAN MID-LEVEL TROUGH AXIS,
BELOW-NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE SLIGHTLY FAVORED DURING WEEK-2. AT HIGHER
LATITUDES, THE AMPLIFIED RIDGE/TROUGH COUPLET FROM THE NORTH-CENTRAL PACIFIC
INTO ALASKA AND WESTERN CANADA SHOULD KEEP BELOW-NORMAL TEMPERATURES ENTRENCHED
ACROSS MOST OF ALASKA, ALTHOUGH THE MAGNITUDE AND EXPANSE OF THE COLD AIR WILL
WAX AND WANE OVER THE COURSE OF THE PERIOD. ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE
FAVORED FOR HAWAII WITH SOMEWHAT HIGHER ODDS THAN FOR THE 6-10 DAY PERIOD OVER
CENTRAL AND EASTERN PARTS OF THE ISLAND CHAIN..
ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION REMAINS LIKELY FOR THE WEST COAST WITH CONTINUED
CHANCES FOR ATMOSPHERIC RIVER ACTIVITY TO IMPACT THE REGION THROUGHOUT WEEK-2.
THE POTENTIAL FOR INCREASED 500-HPA HEIGHTS REDUCES THE ODDS SLIGHTLY FOR MOST
LOCATIONS OUTSIDE THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST, WHERE A SHORTWAVE EJECTING FROM THE
MEAN TROUGH OVER SOUTHEAST ALASKA SHOULD LOWER MID-LEVEL HEIGHTS AND
RE-ESTABLISH ONE OR MORE EPISODES OF STORMINESS RELATED TO ATMOSPHERIC RIVER
EVENTS. FARTHER EAST, THE RELATIVELY WEAK SHORTWAVE MOVING INTO THE FOUR
CORNERS REGION ENHANCES THE ODDS ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
ROCKIES AND PLAINS WHILE THE ENHANCED PACIFIC FLOW KEEPS INCREASED ODDS FOR
ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION FARTHER NORTH IN THE ROCKIES AND ADJACENT PLAINS AS
WELL. BELOW-NORMAL PRECIPITATION IS GENERALLY FAVORED FOR THE SOUTHEAST AND
ALONG THE IMMEDIATE EASTERN SEABOARD UNDER OR JUST DOWNSTREAM FROM THE
PERSISTENT MID-LEVEL RIDGE. NEAR NORMAL PRECIPITATION IS FAVORED OVER MUCH OF
MAINLAND ALASKA, WITH SUBNORMAL TOTALS AGAIN FAVORED ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER
SIMILAR TO THE 6-10 DAY PERIOD. CHANCES FOR ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION CONTINUE
ACROSS HAWAII, WHICH SHOULD REMAIN UNDER NEAR- OR BELOW-NORMAL 500-HPA HEIGHTS
DOWNSTREAM FROM A MODERATE MID-LEVEL TROUGH. THE STRONGEST PROBABILITIES FOR
ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION (50 TO 60 PERCENT) REMAIN ACROSS THE WESTERN
ISLANDS, CLOSER TO THE 500-HPA TROUGH AXIS.
THE OFFICIAL 8-14 DAY 500-HPA HEIGHT BLEND CONSISTS OF: 30% OF TODAY'S 6Z GFS
ENSEMBLE MEAN CENTERED ON DAY 11, 40% OF TODAY'S 0Z EUROPEAN ENSEMBLE MEAN
CENTERED ON DAY 11, AND 30% OF TODAY'S 0Z CANADIAN ENSEMBLE MEAN CENTERED ON
DAY 11
FORECAST CONFIDENCE FOR THE 8-14 DAY PERIOD: ABOVE-AVERAGE, 4 OUT OF 5, DUE TO
GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT ON THE PERSISTENCE OF THE AMPLIFIED, STABLE MID-LEVEL
HEIGHT PATTERN, TEMPERED SOMEWHAT BY UNCERTAINTIES IN THE DAY-TO-DAY VARIANCE
BROUGHT ABOUT AS INDIVIDUAL FEATURES MOVE THROUGH THE STABLE LONGWAVE PATTERN.
FORECASTER: RICH TINKER
NOTES:
THE NOTATION FOR THE CATEGORICAL FORECAST INDICATED ON THE MAPS IS
THE SAME AS THAT IN THE TABLES: A-ABOVE N-NEAR NORMAL B-BELOW
THE TEMPERATURE MAP SHOWS REGIONS WITH > 33% CHANCE OF BEING WARMER
(ORANGE, "A"), COLDER (BLUE, "B"), OR CLOSE TO (GRAY, "N") NORMAL.
LABELS ON THE SHADED LINES GIVE THE PROBABILITY (> 33%) OF THE MORE
LIKELY CATEGORY (B OR A). PROBABILITY OF N IS ALWAYS < 40%.
THE PRECIPITATION MAP SHOWS REGIONS WITH > 33% CHANCE OF BEING
WETTER (GREEN, "A"), DRIER (TAN, "B"), OR CLOSE TO (GRAY, "N")
NORMAL. LABELS ON THE SHADED LINES GIVE THE PROBABILITY (> 33%) OF
THE MORE LIKELY CATEGORY (B OR A). PROBABILITY OF N IS ALWAYS < 40%.
IN THE SOUTHWEST AND OTHER CLIMATOLOGICALLY DRY REGIONS - THERE WILL
BE A GREATER THAN 33.3% CHANCE OF NO PRECIPITATION AND OCCASIONALLY
EVEN A NORMAL (I.E. MEDIAN) VALUE OF ZERO - ESPECIALLY DURING THE DRY
SEASONS. IN SUCH CASES A FORECAST OF NEAR NORMAL IS EFFECTIVELY A
FORECAST OF LITTLE OR NO PRECIPITATION.
THE CLIMATE PREDICTION CENTER USES 1991-2020 BASE PERIOD MEANS AS
REFERENCE IN THE CLIMATE OUTLOOKS.
THE NEXT SET OF LONG-LEAD MONTHLY AND SEASONAL OUTLOOKS WILL BE RELEASED ON
JANUARY 15.
