Heavy to Excessive Rains in The Four Corners Region and Midwest; Heat Persists in the South-Central U.S.

Repeated rounds of showers and thunderstorms could bring a flash flooding threat across the Four Corners region and from the mid-Mississippi Valley into the lower Great Lakes. Hot temperatures and high humidity will continue to challenge daily records from the Southern Plains to the lower Mississippi Valley. Read More >

High pressure will remain southeast of the Four Corners the rest of the weekend and continue drawing subtropical monsoon moisture into southern Colorado and Utah.  Expect an increase in showers and thunderstorms Sunday with gusty outflow winds, small hail and brief heavy rain possible with storms.  The best potential for heavy rain should occur across southeast Utah and southwest Colorado where the better moisture resides and scattered thunderstorms are forecast.  Drier air moves back in Sunday evening and will remain through next week.  Southwest winds aloft will help keep wildfire smoke out of much of the region, with the exception of extreme northeast Utah and northwest Colorado, where a more westerly component will keep the southern edge of the smoke in this region.
