Summary:
- January was mild over much of the west, adding to a relatively warm winter so far.
- Split flow over the west has brought some welcomed precipitation to California while the PNW has remained mostly dry. Current transition to colder temperatures for February likely, mixed bag for precipitation.
- Regardless of the colder temperatures forecast for February, the seasonal forecast for February through April continues the odds toward a warmer western US, while precipitation is forecast to be near average in central to southern California and below average for most of the PNW.
