Still, if there is some very interesting items to mention, I&#8217;ll sure do that below. \u00a0The one thing that we may finally see is a change in the weather pattern that become more favorable for some much needed rainfall. \u00a0The next two weeks look more favorable for a wetter pattern, but may include some severe weather. \u00a0The key over the next two weeks and whether the region may be in a bigger drought is that if we don&#8217;t get the wet weather. \u00a0Quite a few locations are running 2 to 4 inches behind, especially over Eastern PA. \u00a0One of the bigger drivers in the weather pattern is El Nino. \u00a0Right now, its in the moderate category and forecast to go strong. \u00a0It maybe one of the reasons that we&#8217;ve been so dry of late. \u00a0For now, let&#8217;s see how things play out over the next few weeks. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">For official outlooks, please check\u00a0out the following links<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">&#8211;

Ridging is favored over the central US. \u00a0A trough will be over the Eastern US. \u00a0This will mean the jet stream will be nearby to allow some active weather for this period. The good news is that some rain is finally in the forecast, but we may get too much in a short period of time. \u00a0This means some excessive rainfall and severe weather possible early this period. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Weather Threats<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">There are two weather threats possible. \u00a0<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">On Monday, excessive rainfall and severe weather is possible. \u00a0A cold front will slowly move through the region. \u00a0This front will be the trigger for showers and thunderstorms. Any thunderstorms that do develop will have the potential to produce\u00a0very heavy rainfall, which may cause some flooding. \u00a0Rainfall rates per hour may reach 2 inches, perhaps even high in a few locations. \u00a0This type of rainfall rate can cause some significant flooding. \u00a0Even though the region hasn&#8217;t gotten much rain, you can still get flooding from intense rainfall, because the water doesn&#8217;t have the time to runoff. \u00a0My confidence level on this threat is high. \u00a0For the severe weather threat, there may be a few thunderstorms that may contain\u00a0damaging winds and large hail. \u00a0The coverage for severe weather will not be widespread. \u00a0My confidence on this threat is low due to the lack of sunshine. Monday will be cooler and with more clouds and cooler temperatures, that should limit severe weather threat. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">For Tuesday, excessive rainfall is still possible. Showers and thunderstorms will still be possible and again they may produce very heavy rainfall, which could result in some flooding. Once the cold front passes through the area, the weather threat will be over. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Weather Ensemble Forecast Maps (Click on the hyperlinks below to access maps)<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/1_WTAF_5-15-Day_Ensemble_20150531.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">500mb Anomaly<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/2_WTAF_5-15-Day_Ensemble_20150531.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Sea Level Pressure Anomaly<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/3_WTAF_5-15-Day_Ensemble_20150531.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">850mb Temperature Anomaly<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/4_WTAF_5-15-Day_Ensemble_20150531.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">5 Day Precipitation Total<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">6 to 10 Day Forecast Period<br \/>\n<\/span>Saturday, June 6th\u00a0through Wednesday, June 10th<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Weather Threat Forecast Tables\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">(Click on the hyperlinks below to access the images below)<\/span><\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/5_WTAF_5-15-Day_PHL_20150531.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Pattern Overview<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/6_WTAF_5-15-Day_PHL_20150531.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Weather Threat Forecast\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Note: Table Legend:\u00a0<strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/WTAF_CF_20150403.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Forecaster Confidence\u00a0Level<\/a>,\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><strong>Severity Event Index<\/strong>:\u00a0<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/WTAF_SI_Minor_20150403.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Minor<\/a>, <a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/WTAF_SI_Significant_20150403.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Significant<\/a>, <a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/WTAF_SI_Major_20150403.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Major<\/a>, <\/span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/ezweather.com\/myblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/WTAF_SI_Extreme_20150403.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Extreme<br \/>\n<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Forecast Discussion<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Basic Pattern Overview<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">The model ensemble trends of the last several days favors strong ridging over the Pacific Northwest with a trough over the Southwest US. \u00a0Then some ridging is forecast to develop over Central Canada, while a trough will be over the Eastern US. \u00a0This type of upper air pattern favors an unsettled forecast period. \u00a0This pattern may mean may warmer than average temperatures, increased humidity with some of the active weather similar to what the Central US south to Texas has been dealing with the past several weeks. \u00a0One of the key things to watch is how much precipitation actually falls over the area.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Weather Threats<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">This forecast period favors two weather threats. They include excessive rainfall and severe weather and the two may be significant. \u00a0My forecaster confidence level is medium. One of the key players in figuring out weather threats is the position of the jet stream. \u00a0From what I can gather after looking at the model guidance, it will to our west. \u00a0This location of where the jet stream will setup, will allow for active weather. \u00a0Another interesting item that provides clues on our active weather was what from the European model ensembles showed, which was a\u00a0bubble of very warm air forecasted to be over the central US. \u00a0This heat will collide with some cooler air thats forecasted to be over the Great Lakes. \u00a0We may be in a corridor where a front is position in a way to act as the trigger for the active weather. \u00a0Typically as we head into June and even July, we tend to be get hit with\u00a0severe weather. \u00a0For now, its a forecast period that needs to be monitored. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Weather Ensemble Maps: Click on the hyperlinks below to access
