Predictive Services Discussion:

High pressure will bring well above normal temperatures to the Great Lakes south to the Ohio Valley along with 

minimum relative humidity as low as 10%. Breezy south winds are forecast across portions of Minnesota as well 

with moderate significant fire potential. Very dry conditions will continue over the Southwest, southern Great 

Basin, and West Slope, with afternoon relative humidity as low as 5% and poor overnight recovery. Scattered 

showers and thunderstorms will develop from the Sierra through the northern Great Basin into the northern 

Rockies, and on much of the Plains, with locally heavy rainfall in south Texas. Isolated to scattered showers and 

thunderstorms will develop from the southern Appalachians to the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast coasts. Low 

pressure will bring continued cool and showery conditions to much of Alaska, while Flood Watches and Warnings 

continue across the eastern Interior for snowmelt and ice jams.
