Weather

An upper-level trough is slowly moving across the Midwest today, causing temperatures to remain moderate and thunderstorm activity to continue and spread eastward into New England. Associated scattered thunderstorms are also forecast for portions of the Southeast. Meanwhile, hot and dry conditions will persist over the western United States. Temperatures will rise to 10- 15oF above normal across the Pacific Northwest and 5-10oF above normal in northern California and portions of the Great Basin. Overnight relative humidity recovery will be generally poor across these areas as well. Hot, dry conditions will also continue in Texas and west and central Oklahoma. Monsoonal thunderstorms will continue across the Southwest, eastern Great Basin and Colorado, moving farther westward than in previous days, creating a possibility for isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms across portions of southern California and western Nevada as well as continuing to develop in the greater Four Corners area, where more widespread coverage can be expected. Flash floods are possible in central and southern Arizona, and in portions of eastern and central Colorado. Western and central Alaska will experience cooler than normal temperatures and widespread wetting rain, while the eastern half of the state is under the influence of a weak ridge and a warming drying trend will bring high temperatures into the 70s and relative humidity as low as 20 – 30%. Strong winds are expected to pick up across the state, with gusts of up to 40 mph likely in areas parts of the south and west.
