<br />INTERMOUNTAIN WEST CLIMATE SUMMARY, JUNE 2006 <br /> <br />Precipitation Outlook continued <br /> <br />The experimental guidance for the South- <br />west for July-September 2006 (Figure llc) <br />indicates monsoon has the potential to be <br />above-average from southwestern New <br />Mexico into eastern Colorado. This product <br />incorporates factors influencing southewest <br />climate that are used only a limited way in <br />the official CPC forecast. <br /> <br />Notes <br />The experimental guidance for seasonal <br />future precipitation in Figure 11 c shows <br />most recent forecast of shifts in tercile <br />probabilities for July - September 2006. In <br />order to be shown on this map, a forecast <br />tilt in the odds has to reach at least 30/0 <br />either towards wet (above-average), dry <br />(below-average), or near-normal (aver- <br />age). Shifts towards the wettest (driest) <br />tercile are indicated in green (red), and are <br />contoured in 50/0 increments, while near- <br />normal tilts of at least 30/0 are indicated by <br />the letter "N". Shifts over 1 00/0 considered <br />significant. Positive (negative) shifts be- <br />tween three and five percent are indicated <br />by a green (red) plus (minus) sign, while <br />minor shifts of one or two percent are left <br />blank in this display. <br /> <br /> <br />+5% <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />w <br /> <br />-, <br /> <br />-596 +5% <br /> <br />Figure 11 c.
