Active weather pattern for much of the country

You can see in the satellite water vapor imagery that the Pacific Ocean to the Western U.S. is loaded with a storm sequence.

As they move within the jet streams from West to East over the next 10 days or longer the frontal low pressure areas will keep active and changeable weather going for much of the nation, including our temperature roller coaster right through February and into March.

The Pacific Ocean influence on the jet stream configuration continues to prevent any big-time or long lasting cold here in the Southeast region of the country, keeping best snow and ice odds to our West and North for the foreseeable future.
