The best guess about the weather forecast for the next several months is that its anybody’s guess. There could be more rain and snow, less rain and snow or a neutral amount of precipitation. Up until a month ago, forecasters thought the state might experience a La Niña weather pattern. Predictions are based upon water temperatures in the Pacific Ocean along the equator. La Niña is a cooler weather pattern that often results in above normal precipitation in the Pacific northwest, dry conditions elsewhere.
