Predictive Services Discussion:

Dry and breezy conditions will continue in the eastern Sierra and east of the Transverse and Peninsular Ranges 

in southern California into southern Nevada and extend across portions of the Southwest. Dry post-frontal 

conditions are likely across portions of the Great Lakes into the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, with thunderstorms 

continuing over the Florida Peninsula and along the southeast Atlantic Coast. Severe thunderstorms are likely 

again on the southern and central High Plains, and isolated to scattered thunderstorms are forecast in the central 

and northern Intermountain West, including possible severe thunderstorms in southern Montana. Flood Watches 

and Warnings will continue across parts of Alaska, especially in the Interior, for snowmelt, and showers are likely 

along the southern Alaska coast into the Brooks Range and parts of the Interior.
