Wetter than average weather is forecast in the eastern and central sections of the nation, and especially for the Northeast and Ohio Valley. Below average precipitation is still outlined for the Northwest. https://twitter.com/NWSCPC/status/1057734443811725312 Long term Autumn climate forecasts are often difficult, as noted in the CPC forecast discussion. The temperature forecast has the most uncertainty, due to model variability and an expected pattern shift at the end of the month.
