Thunderstorms are expected in the central US and also in eastern New York and New England. Heavy rainfall associated with thunderstorms fell over parts of the Midwest late Tuesday. Rain showers are also expected from northern California to the Pacific Northwest. Clatsop, Columbia and Washington Counties Radar and weather spotters showed areas of 3 to 4 tenths per inch per hour of rain falling on the eastern slopes of the northern Oregon coast range. The recent drier weather has resulted in the Ohio River falling below flood stage in most areas.
Minor flooding continues in some areas along the Mississippi River.
Most locations are expected to go below flood stage over the next few day because of the drier weather.
