Large dip in the jet stream will open the door for severe weather across the U.S.

A major pattern shift is expected next week as a large dip in the jet stream parks over the West, allowing storms to originate there and track across the country into the East. This active setup will bring heavy mountain snow and abundant moisture to the West, while potentially increasing snow chances in the North and severe weather threats in the South.
