Carolinas to expect wet week ahead, predicts Weather writer Steve Lyttle

United States: Weather writer Steve Lyttle shared the weather forecast for Carolinas. They are in the middle of a zonal weather pattern, in which weather systems generally move west to east all over the nation. There is a relatively warm as well as a wet week ahead. 

Steve Lyttle took to his official social media account and highlighted in the statement, “We’re in the midst of a zonal weather pattern, in which weather systems generally move west to east across the country. That’s especially true in the South, and it’s what you’d expect in a La Nina winter.”

Those west-to-east patterns in the winter tend to be relatively warm for the Southeast, as well as the forecast for the next week reflects all of that, mild to warm, with occasional encounters with storm systems. 

The first such system will reach on Tuesday, although it will be rather a week. Steve Lyttle further stated and a stronger system will arrive on Thursday, and yet another rain-maker will appear on the horizon for the late next weekend.
