PROGNOSTIC DISCUSSION FOR 6 TO 10 AND 8 TO 14 DAY OUTLOOKS
NWS CLIMATE PREDICTION CENTER COLLEGE PARK, MD
300 PM EST SAT MARCH 07 2026
6-10 DAY OUTLOOK FOR MAR 13 - 17 2026
THE 0Z ECMWF, GEFS AND CANADIAN ENSEMBLE MEAN FORECASTS GENERALLY AGREE ON THE
MEAN LARGE-SCALE CIRCULATION PATTERN OVER NORTH AMERICA FOR THE 6-10 DAY
PERIOD, BUT THERE ARE SOME DIFFERENCES IN THE DETAILS ACROSS THE CONTIGUOUS
UNITED STATES (CONUS) AND UNDERLYING VARIATIONS IN THE PATTERN THROUGH THE
PERIOD. ALL ENSEMBLE MEANS PREDICT A STRONG MID-LEVEL RIDGE AND POSITIVE
500-HPA HEIGHT ANOMALIES OVER THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS AND BERING SEA, EXTENDING
TO WESTERN MAINLAND ALASKA. IN THE MANUAL BLEND, THE GREATEST 500-HPA HEIGHT
ANOMALIES ARE CENTERED OVER THE WESTERNMOST ALEUTIANS, WHERE THEY EXCEED +33 DM
NEAR A 558 DM CLOSED HIGH AT 500-HPA. POSITIVE 500-HPA HEIGHT ANOMALIES ARE
LIMITED TO THE FAR WESTERN TIER OF MAINLAND ALASKA IN TODAY'S FORECAST, WITH
SUBNORMAL 500-HPA HEIGHTS COVERING MOST OF THE STATE. SOUTH OF THIS FEATURE,
SIGNIFICANT NEGATIVE 500-HPA HEIGHT ANOMALIES ARE CENTERED NORTHWEST OF HAWAII,
WITH HEIGHT ANOMALIES REACHING AT LEAST -18 DM IN THE MANUAL BLEND. FARTHER
EAST, A MID-LEVEL TROUGH IS FROM WESTERN CANADA THROUGH SOUTHERN ALASKA AND
INTO THE NORTH PACIFIC. MODELS DEPICT THIS FEATURE AS BROADER, SOMEWHAT MORE
AMPLIFIED, AND CENTERED SLIGHTLY FARTHER WEST THAN YESTERDAY. NEGATIVE 500-HPA
HEIGHT ANOMALIES STRETCH WELL EASTWARD THROUGH THE CENTRAL TIER OF CANADA, WITH
THE GREATEST NEGATIVE ANOMALIES (NEAR -22 DM IN THE MANUAL BLEND) CENTERED
SOUTH OF HUDSON BAY. A MID-LEVEL TROUGH IS FORECAST TO EXTEND SOUTHWARD FROM
THIS BROAD, FLAT AREA OF NEGATIVE 500-HPA HEIGHT ANOMALIES INTO PART OF THE
INTERIOR EASTERN CONUS. HOW FAR SOUTH THIS FEATURE WILL EXTEND IS STILL NOT
CERTAIN; HOWEVER, MODELS HAVE SHIFTED TOWARD A MORE AMPLIFIED SOLUTION, AND
THIS IS REFLECTED IN THE MANUAL BLEND WHICH TAKES NEGATIVE 500-HPA ANOMALIES
FARTHER SOUTH THAN YESTERDAY, AND KEEPS HEIGHTS OVER DEEP SOUTH CLOSER TO
NORMAL. THIS IS MORE CONSISTENT WITH YESTERDAY'S CANADIAN ENSEMBLE (ECENS)
MEAN, WHICH WAS FAVORED. MEANWHILE, A FAIRLY AMPLIFIED 500-HPA RIDGE IS
EXPECTED TO COVER THE EASTERN NORTH PACIFIC AND SOME PORTION OF THE
WEST-CENTRAL TO SOUTHWESTERN CONUS. MODELS ARE IN BETTER AGREEMENT ON THE
STRENGTH AND POSITION OF THIS MEAN FEATURE THAN YESTERDAY, WITH THE GEFS MEAN
SHIFTING TOWARD THE OTHER, MORE AMPLIFIED ENSEMBLE MEANS. MODELS SUPPORT A
SLOWLY PROGRESSIVE AND SLIGHTLY AMPLIFYING PATTERN OVER THE COURSE OF THE
PERIOD, WITH A MID-LEVEL TROUGH DIGGING INTO THE EASTERN CONUS FROM THE NORTH,
AND THE 500-HPA RIDGE DRIFTING INTO THE WESTERN CONUS FROM THE ADJACENT PACIFIC
OCEAN. AT THE SURFACE, THIS SUPPORTS A LOW SURFACE PRESSURE CENTER INITIALLY
NEAR NEW ENGLAND TO TRACK NORTHEASTWARD EARLY IN THE PERIOD, WITH A TRAILING
FRONTAL SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH THE MID-ATLANTIC AND NORTHEAST WHICH IS EXPECTED
TO ACT AS A FOCUS FOR HEAVIER PRECIPITATION.
THE 500-HPA RIDGE BUILDING INTO THE WESTERN CONUS STRONGLY SUPPORTS
ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE SOUTHWESTERN QUARTER OF THE LOWER-48, WITH
ENHANCED CHANCES FOR ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES REACHING AS FAR NORTH AS
SOUTHERN IDAHO AND THE OREGON/WASHINGTON BORDER. THE ODDS FOR WARMER THAN
NORMAL CONDITIONS EXCEED 80 PERCENT IN PARTS OF THE SOUTHWEST. DOWNSTREAM,
ENHANCED CHANCES FOR ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE LIMITED TO FLORIDA AND SOME
ADJACENT PARTS OF THE DEEP SOUTH, CONSISTENT WITH THE MID-LEVEL TROUGH
AMPLIFYING INTO THE EASTERN CONUS. THIS IS REFLECTED IN THE RAW AND REFORECAST
TEMPERATURE TOOLS FROM THE CANADIAN ENSEMBLE (CNENS), ECENS, AND GEFS, ALL OF
WHICH DEPICT TEMPERATURES NEAR OR BELOW NORMAL REACHING CONSIDERABLY FARTHER
SOUTH THAN YESTERDAY. THE REFORECASTS KEEP AREAS FROM THE OHIO RIVER SOUTHWARD
CLOSER TO NORMAL ON AVERAGE WHILE THE RAW OUTPUT FAVORS SUBNORMAL TEMPERATURES
THERE; THE COOLER SOLUTION IS PREFERRED, BEING MORE CONSISTENT WITH THE
AMPLIFYING MID-LEVEL TROUGH. FARTHER NORTH, THE STRONG 500-HPA RIDGE CENTERED
OVER THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS IN CONCERT WITH NEGATIVE 500-HPA HEIGHT ANOMALIES
OVER CENTRAL AND ESPECIALLY EASTERN PARTS OF ALASKA SUPPORTS ARCTIC HIGH
PRESSURE PREVAILING ACROSS MOST OF THE STATE. THIS SUPPORTS A FORECAST FAVORING
SUBNORMAL TEMPERATURES STATEWIDE, WITH CHANCES EXCEEDING 70 PERCENT OVER MOST
OF THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE STATE. IN CONTRAST, WARMER THAN NORMAL CONDITIONS
ARE STRONGLY FAVORED ACROSS HAWAII, CONSISTENT WITH THE CONSOLIDATION, AND WITH
THE FORECAST SOUTHWESTERLY MID-LEVEL FLOW AND THE STRONG MID-LEVEL TROUGH
LOCATED NORTHWEST OF THE STATE.
HIGHER THAN NORMAL PRECIPITATION TOTALS ARE ANTICIPATED ACROSS THE NORTHERN
TIER OF THE CONUS AS WELL AS THE OHIO VALLEY AND PARTS OF THE SOUTHEAST. THE
BEST ODDS IN THE CONUS FOR ABOVE-NORMAL AMOUNTS (ABOVE 50 PERCENT) ARE ACROSS
THE NORTHWEST AND THE NORTHERN ROCKIES UNDER A STRONG FETCH OF AIR ORIGINATING
IN THE NORTH PACIFIC. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY MOVING SLOWLY THROUGH THE
NORTHEASTERN CONUS SUPPORTS HEAVIER THAN NORMAL PRECIPITATION ACROSS THAT
REGION, WITH CHANCES EXCEEDING 40 PERCENT ACROSS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES AND
NORTHEAST. SUBNORMAL PRECIPITATION IS FAVORED FROM CALIFORNIA AND THE SOUTHWEST
EASTWARD INTO THE GREAT PLAINS, NEAR AND DOWNSTREAM FROM THE POSITIVE 500-HPA
ANOMALY CENTER MOVING INTO THE REGION. ACROSS ALASKA, THE PATTERN AND THE
RELATIVELY DRY MARCH CLIMATOLOGY FAVORS ONLY NOMINALLY INCREASED CHANCES FOR
BELOW-NORMAL PRECIPITATION IN THE SOUTHWESTERN QUARTER OF THE STATE CLOSEST TO
THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE. MARGINALLY ENHANCED CHANCES FOR HEAVIER THAN NORMAL
PRECIPITATION EXIST OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN MAINLAND TO THE EAST OF THE 500-HPA
TROUGH, WITH BETTER ODDS FOR ABNORMALLY HEAVY PRECIPITATION ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN
ALASKA NEAR A MEAN SURFACE LOW PRESSURE CENTER OVER THE NORTHEASTERN GULF OF
ALASKA. MEANWHILE, THE STRONG MEAN TROUGH NORTHWEST OF HAWAII HEAVILY FAVORS
ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION FOR THE PERIOD, CONSISTENT WITH MOST GUIDANCE AND
THE CONSOLIDATION. THE LIKELIHOOD OF ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION EXCEEDS 80
PERCENT STATEWIDE.
THE OFFICIAL 6-10 DAY 500-HPA HEIGHT BLEND CONSISTS OF 15% OF TODAY'S 6Z GFS
ENSEMBLE MEAN CENTERED ON DAY 8, 22% OF TODAY'S 0Z EUROPEAN ENSEMBLE MEAN
CENTERED ON DAY 8, 8% OF TODAY'S OPERATIONAL 0Z ECMWF CENTERED ON DAY 8, AND
55% 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
GENERAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE TOOLS ON THE MEAN 500-HPA HEIGHT PATTERN AND BETTER
AGREEMENT THAN YESTERDAY ON THE DAY-TO-DAY EVOLUTION OF FEATURES, OFFSET BY
DIFFERENCES IN SOME OF THE RAW AND STATISTICALLY-DERIVED TEMPERATURE AND
PRECIPITATION TOOLS, PARTICULARLY IN THE EASTERN CONUS.
8-14 DAY OUTLOOK FOR MAR 15 - 21 2026
ENSEMBLE MEAN FORECASTS FOR THE 8-14 DAY PERIOD FROM THE 0Z ECENS, GEFS, AND
CNENS ARE GENERALLY CONSISTENT IN THE PLACEMENT OF 500-HPA FEATURES, BUT THERE
ARE DIFFERENCES IN THE EVOLUTION OF SOME INDIVIDUAL FEATURES. THE LARGEST
UNCERTAINTY IS NOTED ACROSS ALASKA. MOST OF THE GUIDANCE SHOWS THE STRONG
500-HPA RIDGE WEST OF ALASKA RETROGRESSING SOMEWHAT AND SLOWLY WEAKENING. THIS
ALLOWS SUBNORMAL 500-HPA HEIGHTS TO ENCOMPASS THE ENTIRE STATE, AND KEEPS THE
DOWNSTREAM MID-LEVEL TROUGH AXIS ESSENTIALLY IN PLACE, BUT WHILE MODEL
SOLUTIONS ARE SIMILAR WITH THE PLACEMENT OF THIS FEATURE, THEY ARE QUITE VARIED
WITH ITS STRENGTH. THE GEFS AND CNENS MEANS ARE WEAKEST, SHOWING 500-HPA MEAN
HEIGHT ANOMALIES OF -8 TO -10 DM FROM EAST-CENTRAL THROUGH SOUTH-CENTRAL
ALASKA, AND CLOSER TO NORMAL ELSEWHERE. THE DYNAMICAL EUROPEAN (ECMWF) AND GFS
MODELS ARE MUCH STRONGER, SHOWING MEAN 500-HPA HEIGHT ANOMALIES BELOW -14DM
ACROSS AT LEAST THE EASTERN HALF OF MAINLAND ALASKA. THE ECENS MEAN IS A
COMPROMISE OF THE AFOREMENTIONED SOLUTIONS, AND IS PREFERRED SINCE IT REFLECTS
A COMPROMISE OF THE OTHER SOLUTIONS. FARTHER SOUTH, THE STRONG NEGATIVE 500-HPA
HEIGHT ANOMALY CENTERED NORTHWEST OF HAWAII IS EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTHWESTWARD
AWAY FROM THE STATE WHILE PROGRESSIVELY WEAKENING OVER THE COURSE OF WEEK-2.
ACROSS THE CONUS, THE STRONG MID-LEVEL RIDGE COVERING THE WESTERN CONUS IS
EXPECTED TO DRIFT EASTWARD AND EXPAND NORTHWARD SOMEWHAT WHILE THE DOWNSTREAM
MID-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN CONUS BEGINS TO GRADUALLY DEAMPLIFY AND LIFT
OFF TO THE NORTH-NORTHEAST. MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE EVOLUTION OF
THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE WESTERN CONUS, BUT THERE IS MORE UNCERTAINTY
REGARDING THE MID-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN CONUS. THE GEFS AND CNENS MEANS
MAINTAIN MORE AMPLITUDE AND KEEP THE TROUGH AXIS FARTHER WEST THAN THE ECENS
MEAN, WHICH IS QUICKER TO RETRACT THIS FEATURE NORTHWARD INTO EASTERN CANADA.
THE MORE AMPLIFIED SOLUTIONS ARE IN THE MAJORITY AND ARE MORE CONSISTENT WITH
THE EVOLUTION EXPECTED DURING THE 6- TO 10-DAY PERIOD, AND ARE THUS FAVORED IN
THIS FORECAST.
THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE IN THE WEST STRONGLY SUPPORTS ENHANCED CHANCES FOR
ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES CENTERED OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE CONUS, REACHING
AS FAR SOUTHEAST AS THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. CHANCES FOR A
WARMER-THAN-NORMAL WEEK-2 EXCEED 70 PERCENT ACROSS A BROAD AREA COVERING
CENTRAL AND WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE FOUR CORNERS REGION, THE GREAT BASIN, AND
CALIFORNIA, WITH CHANCES BETTER THAN 40 PERCENT REACHING NORTHWARD TO THE
CANADIAN BORDER. FARTHER EAST, SUBNORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST IN
ASSOCIATION WITH THE MID-LEVEL TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE EASTERN CONUS. ODDS
FOR UNUSUALLY COLD CONDITIONS ARE GREATEST (OVER 60 PERCENT) OVER CENTRAL AND
WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE NORTHEAST, WHERE NEGATIVE 500-HPA HEIGHTS ARE EXPECTED
TO BE MOST PERSISTENT. ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO FAVOR UNUSUALLY COLD
WEATHER ACROSS ALASKA, WITH ODDS EXCEEDING 70 PERCENT OVER SOUTHWESTERN
SECTIONS OF THE MAINLAND. FARTHER SOUTH, CONSISTENT WITH THE CONSOLIDATION AND
THE EXPECTED SOUTHWESTERLY MID-LEVEL FLOW, WARMER THAN NORMAL CONDITIONS REMAIN
FAVORED ACROSS HAWAII.
THE 500-HPA TROUGH AFFECTING THE EASTERN CONUS FAVORS ABOVE-NORMAL
PRECIPITATION NEAR AND DOWNSTREAM FROM THE MEAN POSITION OF THE AXIS,
SPECIFICALLY THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES REGION, THE NORTHEAST, AND THE
MID-ATLANTIC. FARTHER WEST, ALONG THE NORTHERN FRINGE OF THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE IN
THE WESTERN CONUS, SURPLUS PRECIPITATION IS FAVORED FROM THE NORTHERN HIGH
PLAINS WESTWARD, WITH ODDS EXCEEDING 50 PERCENT IN NORTHERN WASHINGTON AND
ADJACENT AREAS. FARTHER SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST INTO THE MEAN MID-LEVEL RIDGE,
SUBNORMAL PRECIPITATION IS FAVORED FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND MOST OF CALIFORNIA
THROUGH A LARGE PART OF THE PLAINS, WITH CHANCES FOR DRYNESS OF AT LEAST 50
PERCENT IN ARIZONA AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. ENHANCED LIKELIHOODS OF SUBNORMAL
PRECIPITATION COVER MUCH OF WESTERN MAINLAND ALASKA DOWNSTREAM FROM THE
SLOWLY-RETROGRADING STRONG MID-LEVEL RIDGE. IN CONTRAST, WETTER THAN NORMAL
WEATHER SEEMS MOST PROBABLE IN SOUTHEASTERN PARTS OF ALASKA DOWNSTREAM FROM THE
QUASI-STATIONARY MID-LEVEL TROUGH, WITH ODDS TOPPING 50 PERCENT IN LOWER PARTS
OF SOUTHEAST ALASKA UNDER STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW FROM THE NORTH PACIFIC. WET
WEATHER IS STRONGLY FAVORED ACROSS HAWAII, ALTHOUGH PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED
TO GRADUALLY DECREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY OVER THE COURSE OF WEEK-2. THIS
IS CONSISTENT WITH THE ANTICIPATED 500-HPA TROUGH WEAKENING AND DRIFTING AWAY
FROM THE STATE. STILL, THE GENERAL PATTERN SUPPORTS A LIKELIHOOD FOR
ABOVE-NORMAL PRECIPITATION EXCEEDING 50 PERCENT STATEWIDE.
THE OFFICIAL 8-14 DAY 500-HPA HEIGHT BLEND CONSISTS OF: 13% OF TODAY'S 6Z GFS
ENSEMBLE MEAN CENTERED ON DAY 11, 12% OF TODAY'S OPERATIONAL 6Z GFS CENTERED ON
DAY 11, 25% OF TODAY'S 0Z EUROPEAN ENSEMBLE MEAN CENTERED ON DAY 11, AND 50% OF
TODAY'S 0Z CANADIAN ENSEMBLE MEAN CENTERED ON DAY 11
FORECAST CONFIDENCE FOR THE 8-14 DAY PERIOD: ABOUT AVERAGE, 3 OUT OF 5, WITH
GENERAL AGREEMENT ON THE 500-HPA HEIGHT PATTERN FORECAST, OFFSET BY DIFFERENCES
ON THE TEMPERATURE AND PRECIPITATION FORECASTS FOR THE EASTERN CONUS ASSOCIATED
WITH UNCERTAINTIES REGARDING THE MID-LEVEL TROUGH AFFECTING THE AREA.
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
MARCH 19.
