Predictive Services Discussion: 

Hot, dry, and breezy to windy conditions will develop across portions of Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, and the 

Lower Mississippi River Valley. Hurricane Dora will move away from the Hawaiian Island chain and allow the 

stronger wind speeds to ease as the day progresses. The combination of tropical and monsoonal moisture will 

fuel isolated to scattered wet and dry thunderstorms and gustier outflow winds across portions of the Desert 

Southwest and Great Basin. A weak low-pressure system will track over portions of the Pacific Northwest and 

provide gustier southwest winds and shower chances across the Washington Cascades, while drier conditions 

return across large portions of the northern and central Rockies. Heavier precipitation will continue to affect 

portions of the eastern US, including the Ohio River Valley to portions of the Southeast. Warm temperatures 

will remain across the northern interior of Alaska, with more moderated conditions and scattered showers and 

thunderstorms across the southern half of the state. 

National Predictive Services Outlook
