Predictive Services Discussion: 

Scattered showers and mixed wet and dry thunderstorms will continue over portions of the Inland Northwest and 

northern and central Rockies. Wetting rain is likely in areas of northeast Washington, north Idaho, and western 

Montana. Isolated to scattered mixed wet and dry thunderstorms are expected in eastern Arizona into southern 

and central New Mexico. Hot, dry, and windy conditions will develop from the deserts of southern California 

through the southern Great Basin and greater Four Corners region, with hot, dry, and occasionally breezy 

conditions continuing across much of Texas into the Lower Mississippi Valley. Scattered strong to severe 

thunderstorms are likely on the central and southern Plains and along and east of the Appalachians from Georgia 

to New England. Gusty southerly winds with above normal temperatures and relatively dry conditions are 

expected to continue in the Alaska Interior, and isolated thunderstorms are likely in the central and eastern 

Interior onto the North Slope. Gusty winds and minimum relative humidity below 50% are expected on all leeward 

locations of the Hawaiian Islands as Hurricane Dora approaches and passes to the south.
