Severe Weather and Heavy Rain from the Great Lakes to the Mid-Atlantic; Heat Persists in the East

Widespread strong thunderstorms with damaging winds and locally heavy rain are expected from the Upper Ohio Valley into the southern Mid-Atlantic today and portions of the central Appalachians and Carolinas on Saturday. Monsoonal moisture will bring a flash flooding threat to the Desert Southwest. Sweltering heat persists from the Plains to the southern Mid-Atlantic through tonight. Read More >

There is a slight chance (20%) of thunderstorms developing along a dryline that will be near a Tribune to McCook line. If storms can develop, they may become severe with damaging wind gusts, large hail and locally heavy rain the most likely threats.
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.
