NOAA Updates it’s February 2023 Outlook on January 31, 2023

February 1, 2023Posted inweatherNo Comments

Updated at 11:45 p.m. EST February 11 to update the wildfire potential maps that should have been updated early in the month.

At the end of every month, NOAA updates its Outlook for the following month which in this case is February of 2023. We are reporting on that tonight.

There have been some significant changes in the Outlook for February and these are addressed in the NOAA Discussion so it is well worth reading. We highlighted some of the important changes within the NOAA Discussion. We also provided the prior Mid-Month Outlook for February for comparison.  Although we remain in weak La Nina conditions, other facts now play a large and perhaps a larger role in the outlook for February.

The article includes the Drought Outlook for February. We have also included the current fire incidents (not many) and four months of Wildland Fire Potential Outlooks and also a map showing the year-to-date snowpack in the West. We also provide the Week 2/3 Tropical Outlook for the World.
