Heavy Rain and Flash Flooding in the West; Heat Expands in the Central U.S.

Monsoonal moisture will produce showers and thunderstorms with heavy rain over parts of the Southwest, Great Basin, and Central Rockies through Monday. Flash flooding is possible, especially in and around burn scars and in areas of steep terrain. Heat will persist across the Central U.S. early this week, spreading into the Ohio Valley and Mid-Atlantic later this week. Read More >

Storms are still moving across the area this evening and are expected to last into the overnight hours. Winds are the primary hazard, but we could see some hail up to 1 inch. The storms in the southern area are the stronger ones while the central showers are weaker.
Temperatures in the 90s and low 100s look to persist for most of the area for the next week. Strong to severe storms in the afternoon and evening hours are also possible the next couple of days with winds being the main threat.
Due to accumulating hail damage the past few years, the Goodland radar is getting a new radar dome. The issue is that the radar itself will likely be down through Sep. 9th. You may look at neighboring radars to still see radar data. We will still send watches and warnings.
