Well, we've seen this for WEEKS... Dominant Bermuda High, blocked Pacific, MJO in the Pacific, ++NAO, etc. etc. The result is building drought in the Southeast and Plains, lows entering California and ejecting quickly (too quickly), and the Bermuda High preventing anything from moving outside of a corridor from the Texas to the Great Lakes. The map shows the April 11 forecast map of precipitation anomalies for the next 14 days. While there is evidence that this pattern will change by May, but waiting on that change is throwing crop management plans out the window.
