Predictive Services Discussion:

Very hot temperatures will continue across southern California and the Southwest with temperatures up to 

120oF, and above normal temperatures across the northern Intermountain West, Texas, and Southeast as 

well. Isolated to scattered mixed wet and dry thunderstorms will develop across the central Great Basin, West 

Slope, southeast Arizona, and much of New Mexico. Breezy south winds in Texas will continue to create areas 

of locally elevated fire weather conditions. Breezy and dry west winds are forecast to develop along the east 

slopes of the Sierra as well. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms, some severe, will develop 

along and ahead of a cold front from the Front Range into the Upper Midwest and northern Great Lakes, while 

more showers and thunderstorms are expected for the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys and Mid-Atlantic. Warm 

temperatures are forecast for much of Interior Alaska, with numerous showers and isolated thunderstorms 

developing over the eastern Interior and south-central Alaska.
