Easter Weekend Forecast

More Active Weather Pattern this Weekend

Weather conditions will turn a bit more active over Easter weekend. We break down the Easter holiday forecast from the East Coast to the West Coast below.

Weather conditions will turn wet in much of the East as a cold front slices across the northern tier while upper-level energy ripples across the South.

East - Showers will first move through the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley (Detroit, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh) before reaching the I-95 corridor of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast (New York, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C.). Showers and thunderstorms will also spread across parts of the South (Nashville, Atlanta, Charlotte, New Orleans).

Central - A new shot of cold air, accompanied by gusty winds and a few snow showers, will surge southward into Upper Midwest. Some scattered thunderstorms will continue in Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas and southern Oklahoma. Some of these will be severe.

West - Low pressure aloft slides into Northern California on Easter Sunday. This will result in showers and scattered thunderstorms across much of northern/central California and adjacent parts of Oregon and Nevada. There could even be some small hail in the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys of California.
