The first atmospheric river of Super El Niño is coming. Here's when it could hit

The weather is dry for the moment, but signs across the atmosphere are painting a clear picture for when the first atmospheric river will bring rain to California. As El Niño begins to lock into the atmosphere, it will continue to set up patterns like the one we will see next week, with lower pressure just offshore and a lingering dome of high pressure across the central United States. Patterns like this that hold in place for a week or more are exceptional at squeezing out oceanic moisture in the form of atmospheric rivers – strings of the jet stream that become saturated with relentless rain. And the first of the season for Central California is taking shape for next week. Here we go. Mid-November is looking wet for California. With a Gulf of Alaska low set to linger for the next week, the pattern is primed for an atmospheric river the moment our stable airmass moves east. I am watching for one or two rain events between Nov 11-16. #cawx https://t.co/3tHirsxawj — Sean Macaday (@MacadayWX) November 4, 2026 Several atmospheric rivers likely in mid-November The next seven or so days look quite dry.

Back to Back Pacific Storms and Possible Atmospheric Rivers Take Aim at San Francisco, Sacramento and Los Angeles as a Powerful Jet Stream Digs Toward California

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA — Forecasters are watching for back-to-back storm systems aimed at California as the overall weather pattern is expected to shift significantly toward mid-November. Multiple powerful storms could arrive one after another, bringing periods of heavy rainfall, especially if atmospheric rivers become involved, which looks increasingly possible. Northern and Central California, including San Francisco and Sacramento, appear to be first in line. Southern California and nearby regions, including Los Angeles, San Diego and Las Vegas, could follow as the pattern evolves. The European model forecast for 10 p.m. PST Wednesday, November 11, shows a powerful jet stream stretching across the entire North Pacific Ocean straight into the California coast.
