Eureka, CA – A wetter weather pattern could take shape across Northwest California next week, according to the National Weather Service in Eureka. Forecasters say confidence is increasing that a larger storm system will arrive by mid to late next week, potentially bringing above-normal precipitation to the region.
According to the Climate Prediction Center (CPC), Northwest California has moderate to high chances of receiving more rain than usual between October 23 and 29, 2025. The 8–14 day outlook map highlights the coastal and inland northern counties in shades of green, indicating an elevated probability of wetter-than-average conditions.
Meteorologists caution that while confidence is building in a wetter trend, the exact timing, intensity, and location of rainfall are still uncertain. More specific details are expected as the system develops and approaches the West Coast.
Residents are advised to monitor local forecasts for updates, especially those in flood-prone or rural areas. Early rainfall could help ease dry conditions but may also bring slick roads and localized travel impacts.
