winter.<\/p>\n<p>There is a\u00a0specific atmospheric river\u00a0setup where the jet stream will dip to the south into the tropical Pacific Ocean near Hawaii, then gather a bunch of warm, moist air and carry it north and east across the rest of the ocean.<\/p>\n<p>This train of moisture will then dump heavy rain where it reaches land, in either the
