U.S. WINTER OUTLOOK UPDATE
NOAA updated its U.S. Winter Outlook for December 2004 through
February 2005, which continues to call for warmer-than-normal
conditions in the West and Alaska, and cooler-than-normal
conditions in the South and in sections of the mid-Atlantic
coast states. For precipitation, NOAA's Outlook calls for
drier-than-average conditions in the Pacific Northwest and
Ohio Valley and wetter-than-average conditions over parts
of the South. In Hawaii, temperatures are expected to be above
average with precipitation below average. Elsewhere, there
are equal chances of above, below and normal temperatures.
