The Daily Safety Xchange

Weather Report 11/14/2025

Southern California:
Heavy rainfall continues today through the weekend as a slow-moving system pulls in deep Pacific moisture. Expect 2–5 inches of rain across urban and coastal areas, with over 6 inches possible along the Transverse Ranges. Flash flooding and debris flows are likely, especially in burn scar areas in Santa Barbara, Ventura, and Los Angeles Counties. High-elevation areas in the central and southern Sierra Nevada are under Winter Storm Warnings, with over a foot of snow and strong winds creating dangerous travel.

Northern Rockies & High Plains:
High Wind Warnings are in effect. Gusts could reach up to 85 mph, causing blowing debris, potential property damage, power outages, and difficult travel for high-profile vehicles.

Central & Southern Plains:
Record-breaking warmth continues today. Temperatures will run 20–30 degrees above normal, with 60s–70s in the Northern/Central Plains and upper 70s–low 80s in Texas and Oklahoma. Red Flag Warnings are in effect for parts of Nebraska and South Dakota due to warm temps, low humidity, and gusty winds—rapid fire spread is possible.

Temperatures will cool down in the Northern and Central Plains this weekend as a cold front moves in, but Texas and Oklahoma will stay well above normal with more record highs likely.

Eastern U.S.:
Mostly dry and seasonable through Friday, warming into the weekend. A frontal system will bring showers and isolated thunderstorms to the Upper Ohio Valley this weekend. The interior Northeast may see rain mixed with some wintry precipitation on Sunday as a surface low develops.

WYOMING

A mild day with warmer than normal temperatures. Gusty winds will continue through the evening with gusts 30 to 40 mph, and as high as 60 mph possible near Casper. A weather system is moving into the west and northwest and will bring mountain snow and lower elevation rain.

Have a nice day.
