Looking ahead, there is a chance for a low pressure system to bring mixed precipitation to the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast by next weekend. Here's what we know.

Yes, there is a chance for a low pressure system to bring mixed precipitation to the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast by next weekend. But, there remains a lot of uncertainty. Keep apprised of the latest information at weather.gov
WHAT WE KNOW: A wave of low pressure is likely to develop across the Ohio Valley late Wednesday and then track eastward to off the Mid-Atlantic coast Friday while strengthening. This low pressure will cause expanding precipitation, with rain and high elevation snowfall possible. Much cooler than normal temperatures will accompany this system Friday and through next weekend. WHAT WE DON’T KNOW: The exact placement of the storm — small shifts in the track will greatly change impacts. The amount of snow that may occur, and whether lower elevations will receive any accumulation. The impacts to coastal regions due to gusty winds and onshore flow. BOTTOM LINE: Confidence in storm development is higher than confidence in specific impacts. Forecast details will change over the next several days. Keep up to date with the latest at weather.gov

Texas had a wet Sunday with rainfall totals of 6-8 inches across southern Texas and near 2-3 inches across the Hill Country. Locally heavy rainfall will continue today. A Slight Risk ERO was issued near Corpus Christi southwards to Brownsville to account for saturated soils.

The US is drying out a bit after weeks of above-normal precip in many regions. That said, much of the western and southern US lean wet. The North Central to the Northeast, and down the Miss River, lean dry.

Temps: Warmer than normal likely for almost all of the US. @NOAA @NWS
A NOAA 6-10 Day Precipitation Outlook map valid for November 10–14, 2026, illustrates precipitation probability trends across the United States. Above-normal precipitation is favored along the western and southern contiguous United States and much of Alaska. In contrast, below-normal precipitation dominates the Northern Plains, Midwest, Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and parts of Hawaii.A NOAA 6-10 Day Temperature Outlook map valid for November 10–14, 2026, projecting a high probability of above-normal temperatures across nearly the entire contiguous United States. The warmest probabilities dominate the central and northern states, while near-normal temperatures are limited to northern New England, coastal Florida, and western Alaska.

A U.S. Drought Monitor map displays dryness levels and drought impacts across the nation for November 3, 2026. Severe to exceptional drought dominates large portions of the lower Mississippi Valley, the interior West, and the Upper Midwest, with widespread dry conditions reaching into the southern Plains and Southeast. In contrast, extensive areas of the Plains, central Midwest, and the Mid-Atlantic remain largely free of significant drought.

November Drought Outlook w/ new design

Drought develops/worsens: None

Drought improves/removed: W. Northwest, CA, Southwest, S. Plains (except S. TX), Lower Miss River, PR + parts of the Rockies, N. Plains, Midwest, Southeast

Otherwise, drought persists. @NOAA @NWS @NWSCPC
A United States map displays the NOAA Climate Prediction Center's 1-month drought outlook for November 1–30, 2026. Substantial areas across the central and southern states, as well as portions of the Southwest and upper Midwest, are forecast to see drought improve or be completely removed. In contrast, drought conditions are predicted to remain largely unchanged across sections of the Northwest, Northern Rockies, Northern Plains, Midwest, South Texas, and parts of the East.

The 2026 ozone hole is the 7th largest in 48 years of monitoring, based on NOAA & NASA analysis, with the average extent reaching about 9.6 million square miles, more than twice the area of the U.S. during peak ozone depletion season. Find the full report: noaa.gov/news-release/n…
This data visualization shows the area and shape of the ozone hole on September 18, 2026, the day of its annual maximum extent. Scientists define the ozone hole as the area in which ozone concentrations drop below the historical threshold of 220 Dobson units. Credit NASA Earth Observatory

The threat for heavy rainfall will shift eastward into the Mississippi Valley and Midwest today, where there is a Slight Risk (level 2 of 4) of excessive rainfall. The area of rain currently over the ArkLaTex into Missouri will push into the slight chance area late this s://t.co/qk3BcVP5M8
NOAA Weather Prediction Center map showing excessive rainfall and flash flooding risks across the south-central United States. A slight risk (yellow) extends from eastern Arkansas through western Tennessee into northern Mississippi, including Memphis. A broader marginal risk (green) stretches from southeastern Texas and Louisiana northward through Arkansas, Missouri, western Tennessee, and Mississippi. A separate marginal risk area covers southeastern Florida, including Miami, with a small slight risk area near Miami. No moderate or high risk areas are indicated.
