WASHINGTON, DC (AP) — In the winter outlook, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says an El Nino weather event will affect America's winter temperatures.

Forecasters predict warmer than usual temperatures would reach a swath from western Washington to Michigan, dipping south to central New Mexico.

According to NOAA: Below-average temperatures are expected across the Southeast and mid-Atlantic from southern and eastern Texas to southern Pennsylvania and south through Florida.

They also say cooler temperatures are expected from southern Texas to Washington, D.C. Wetter weather is forecast for California and the South. Dry weather is predicted for parts of the Midwest and Pacific Northwest.

Other places, such as the Northeast, can go any which way.
