Severe Thunderstorms and Heavy Rainfall Across the South; Heat Spreads Across the West and Southern Plains

A couple of frontal boundaries will move east and south from the Plains to the Gulf and Atlantic coastlines.

Locally heavy rainfall may also occur, which may be welcome news across drought areas. Meanwhile, heat spreads westward. Read More >

We'll see much more dry time than wet this weekend, but we could still see some sprinkles or light showers this evening. Don't expect much for rainfall accumulation though.
After a slight cool down on Sunday, temperatures only increase from there next week into the following weekend. Highs in the 80s give way to the 90s with little rainfall expected. Prepare for an early taste of summer-like heat.
