Halloween Storms Brew for US Southwest & Central Regions
25 Oct
Summary
- Storms predicted for central Texas, western Oklahoma, and western Kansas on October 30.
- Showers expected from Texas to Iowa on Halloween, with dry conditions elsewhere.
- El Niño may contribute to wetter conditions in the southern U.S. this winter.
Parts of the southwestern and central United States are anticipated to face storms over the Halloween period. Specifically, October 30 is predicted to bring storms to central Texas, western Oklahoma, and western Kansas. Conditions are expected to be pleasant further east on this date.
By Halloween, October 31, showers are forecast to stretch from Texas across to Iowa. Dry weather is expected for most of the rest of the country, with some cold conditions possible in the Northwest.
This weather pattern may be influenced by the current El Niño, which meteorologists suggest will lead to wetter conditions in the southern U.S. and warmer, drier conditions in the north throughout the winter.
