Predictive Services Discussion: 

Isolated to widespread mixed wet and dry thunderstorms are expected across much of Arizona, New Mexico, 

into Colorado, mostly along and east of the Divide, and possibly southern Utah and Nevada. Some of the 

thunderstorms will likely have strong to severe outflow winds, with haboobs possible if thunderstorms drift off the 

higher terrain into the lower elevation deserts. Away from thunderstorms, hot, dry, unstable, and breezy 

conditions will develop across much of Texas through the Southwest, southern California, and southern Great 

Basin. Well above normal temperatures will extend northward through much of the West, especially the Central 

Valley and Intermountain West, with gusty winds in the Cascade Gaps. Above normal temperatures will extend 

out of Texas into the Southeast as well. However, a cold front will continue to push southeast with thunderstorms 

expected from eastern Oklahoma to the Georgia coast, which will limit the extent of hot, dry, and breezy 

conditions. Thunderstorms and showers are likely to continue for the Mid-Atlantic through the Northeast and 

portions of the southern and central Plains. Warm and dry conditions will continue for the Alaska Interior.
