Winter Outlook 2025: Colder and Snowier Conditions Expected
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has released its winter outlook for 2025, predicting colder and snowier condition...
Cool Temperatures in the East:: The eastern half of the U.S. is experiencing cooler temperatures, with some areas dipping into the 20s in late August. This trend is expected to continue into early September, with temperatures as much as 15 degrees below historical averages.
Warmth in the West and Florida:: The western U.S. and Florida will continue to experience summer-like warmth throughout September, with temperatures potentially reaching the upper 90s in the Northwest.
Hurricane Season:: After a lull in late August and early September, increased tropical activity is expected in the Atlantic Basin, with the threat of tropical cyclones returning by the second half of September and into October and November.
La Niña Development:: There is an increasing chance of La Niña developing as winter approaches. La Niña conditions are associated with more hurricane activity in November and can lead to cooler temperatures in the northern U.S. and diminished storm activity in the southern U.S.
The fall 2025 weather forecast indicates a diverse range of conditions across the United States. While the East is experiencing an early cool down, the West is expected to remain warm. The potential development of La Niña adds another layer of complexity, with implications for hurricane season and winter weather patterns.
Regional Forecasts:
East Coast:: Expect comfortable days with sunshine and chilly nights in early September. The warmth will return by mid-month, but extreme summertime heat is not expected to return this season. Drought conditions in New England are expected to worsen before tropical moisture arrives in the second half of the month.
West Coast:: Summer-like warmth will continue for most of September, with unusually warm temperatures in the Northwest.
East Texas:: Wetter than normal conditions were experienced during the summer, and the area is likely to be warmer and drier than normal through the fall, with growing signals of La Niña developing. Traditionally, La Niña means warmer and drier conditions for the southern U.S. and a more active hurricane season in the Atlantic.
La Niña Impact:
La Niña, characterized by cooler-than-average sea-surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean, could impact fall and winter weather in the U.S. Typical impacts include cooler temperatures in the northern U.S. and diminished storm track activity in the southern U.S. However, predictions are still uncertain, and indications point to a short-lived, weak event.
When does fall begin?
Meteorological fall begins on September 1, while astronomical fall begins on September 22.
Will the cool temperatures in the East last?
Forecasters say it will definitely stay chilly in the short term, with temperatures trending as much as 15 degrees below historical averages.
What is the impact of La Niña on hurricane season?
La Niña conditions are associated with more activity in November compared to ENSO Neutral and especially compared to Novembers with El Niño conditions.
Be prepared for cooler temperatures in the eastern U.S. during early September.
Residents in the western U.S. and Florida can expect continued warmth throughout September.
Stay informed about potential hurricane activity in the Atlantic Basin.
Monitor the development of La Niña and its potential impact on winter weather.
