NOAA/NCEI Climate at a Glance, contiguous United States. This is the observed record for the month, not a score of anything said in this piece — the forecast ledger begins 2026-08-17 and cannot reach earlier posts.

Weather Trader | Monday Update

A powerful atmospheric river will bombard the West Coast with the low dancing off of Washington. A secondary “bomb cyclone” develops in 7-days that could be extremely serious in terms of wind and rainfall along the California coast. Need to closely monitor for this weekend (Sunday) into Monday.
