Predictive Services Discussion:

Scattered to widespread thunderstorms, including heavy rain, are expected on the northern into the central Plains 

today into tomorrow. Widespread thunderstorms are expected across much of the southern Plains and Texas 

through the weekend, with more scattered showers and thunderstorms in the broader Four Corners region over 

the weekend. Severe thunderstorms are likely across portions of the Plains and Mississippi Valley today and 

tomorrow, with isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms across most of the Ohio and Tennessee 

Valleys, Southeast, central and southern Appalachians, and into the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest through the 

weekend. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are likely in parts of New England today, but relative humidity will 

lower and combine with breezy winds Saturday – Sunday. Hot, unstable, breezy, and relatively dry conditions 

will spread from Florida into the Carolinas, with daily chances of afternoon thunderstorms. Chances of isolated 

to scattered showers and thunderstorms will shift and expand west and north in the Intermountain West this 

weekend, with well above normal temperatures on the West Coast and in the northern Intermountain West.
