An area of high pressure will slide off the Atlantic coast. Clouds, showers and thunderstorms will adorn areas from parts of the Deep South to the Great Lakes. The storms can become locally severe over parts of the southern Plains to the middle Mississippi and Ohio valleys with a risk of flooding. Cooler air, pushed along by gusty winds, will blast across the northern Plains to the Upper Midwest. Snow will develop in Colorado and Wyoming.

Cities in California, Ar- izona, Texas, Nevada and even Montana had record high temperatures on in- dividual days last month, according to the National Weather Service. Some also racked up unusual overall temperatures or streaks of balmy weather. In Los Angeles, the aver- age high in March topped 79 degrees, and the temper- ature hit 90 or higher on six days. San Diego had five days of 90 or above. In Phoenix, the last five days of the month had highs of 95 or above. The warmup is caused by a high-pressure system that has covered the West Coast and shows no sign of easing this year, said Eric Boldt, a meteorologist with the Na- tional Weather Service in Oxnard. The ridge of high pres- sure blocks storms, which means "less cloud cover and more sun, and that's kept us very warm," Boldt said Wednesday. "All of the West Coast ... even up into Oregon, Wash- ington ... have seen record- breaking temperatures this winter, and March just con- tinued this same theme," he said. San Diego has now seen 17 warmer-than-normal months in a row, and Bill- ings, Montana, had its sec- ond-warmest March in more than 80 years. The average of the month's low and high tem- peratures set records in several Central and South- ern California cities, with monthly means in the 60s in Los Angeles and San Di- ego. Las Vegas had a record mean of 66.7 degrees in March. Yakima, Washing- ton, had a record mean of about 50 degrees, which was 7 degrees above nor- mal. The high-pressure ridge that's to blame forces storms over the top of it, and they wind up socking the Northeast, Boldt said. With less rain and snow to provide water to drought- stricken California, Gov. Jerry Brown on Wednes- day ordered officials to im- pose statewide mandatory water restrictions for the first time. Surveyors found the lowest snow level in the Sierra Nevada snowpack in 65 years of record-keeping. "We've had the same pat- tern for the past two win- ters," Boldt said. He said the high pressure "can be knocked out of the way tem- porarily ... but it pops back into place." In addition, ocean tem- peratures have been above normal up and down the West Coast, "so we're not getting a whole lot of relief when the winds do come ashore," he said. Temperatures have been above normal for years, Boldt said. Experts are try- ing to grapple with the cause, although he said they don't think it's related to cli- mate change.
