Another Atmospheric River??

This was just sent to me tonight. Prepare for the possibility.

“GEFS ensemble mean has been suggesting the possibility of another #atmosphericriver impacting the West Coast late next week for the last two days. Latest GEFS forecast of mean 700-hPa geopotential height, 700-hPa wind, and standardized PW anomalies valid 1800 UTC Friday 6 April.” (Meterologist Alicia Bentley, PhD)

  • Mmmmmm. Is there a layman’s version of this?? I can’t tell whether to batten the hatches or break out the bikini.

    • And that would depend on where you live. If in Hawaii, Pineapple Express will wet your bikini. If in Big Sur, then batten down the hatches.
