Tropical Storm Edouard Impacting the Northwestern Gulf Coast; Hazardous Heat expands in the East

Tropical Storm Edouard will impact the northwestern Gulf Coast through Wednesday with gusty winds, storm surge, and heavy rainfall. Flash and river flooding will be possible, especially in southeastern Texas. Hazardous heat will expand across the central and eastern U.S. by mid-week, and daily chances for severe thunderstorms are expected from the eastern Great Lakes to the Mid-Atlantic this week.

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.
