Today's Weather Outlook

As a widespread soaking pattern finally exits the eastern U.S., the Rockies and Plains will reload with showers and storms of their own.

A disturbance in the Southwest will provide ample moisture allowing for showers and storms up and down the Rockies and into the southern Plains. In the Rockies, the activity will be strongest during the day and weakening by night. However, in the southern Plains, storms that form during the day may continue into the overnight hours with scattered amounts of up to 2 inches of rain possible. Flash flooding and hail will be possible with these storms.

Shifting focus over to the Northeast, spotty storms will return. Within storms here, there could be some hail and damaging winds.

Moving south now, Florida will be under the threat of flooding as an upper-level low sits over the region. Up to 3 inches of rain is possible, especially from central to southern portions of the state.

Robust storms will return to the northern Plains, especially in the Dakotas. The timing will be late in the day and have the threat of large hail and damaging winds. An isolated tornado or two cannot be ruled out.

Besides a couple stray showers and storms, the Midwest, Ohio Valley, and Mid-Atlantic will be dry.

Along the Pacific coast and in the Desert Southwest, a dry day is to be expected.

Highs in the 50s and 60s are likely in the higher terrain of the Rockies and Sierra Nevada, and sections of the Pacific Northwest. Seventies will be found in portions of the upper Northeast, western Texas, and Four Corners. Temperatures in the 80s will be likely along the coastline of the East Coast, Mid-Atlantic, Ohio Valley, Midwest, Mid-South, and Plains.

The northern Plains will see pockets of 90 degrees as well as the Gulf Coast. A few 100s will be possible in the Desert Southwest.
