East of the Rockies will see their daily pattern of scattered storms continue as the U.S. pushes through the dog days of summer.
The first target for strong storms will be in the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast. A glancing blow with an upper-level disturbance in Canada, ample moisture, and a few other ingredients will come together for a healthy severe weather setup. Damaging wind gusts, hail, and flash flooding will be the main threats.
A second target for robust storms will exist in the central Plains, northern Plains, and western portions of the Midwest. Established storms will be isolated initially with the threats of large hail, damaging winds, and a couple tornadoes. These storms may combine into an organized line capable of severe wind gusts.
Elsewhere across the eastern two-thirds of the nation will have the risk of thunderstorms. This includes the Gulf Coast, Ohio Valley, Mid-South, Midwest, and Southern Plains.
Central Texas will have to be on the lookout for more potential flooding after the events that occurred over the past week. These storms will be a bit more isolated than the ones of late, but any rainfall will not be welcomed by Texas residents.
Showers and storms will be possible up and down the Rockies from Montana to New Mexico. The Pacific Northwest will be dealing with a weak disturbance and may see a steadier palette of showers.
The Desert Southwest will be the only place in the U.S. that will be truly dry.
Fifties and 60s will be likely across the higher terrain of the Cascades and Rockies. Highs in the 70s will exist on the West Coast, in sections of the Pacific Northwest, and upper portions of the Midwest. Eighties will populate all the East Coast, Mid-South and Ohio Valley. The Plains, lower elevation Rockies, Gulf Coast, and Four Corners will see 90s. Triple digits will torch the Desert Southwest, with 110s and even a few temperature readings close to 120 possible in the most extreme desert locations.
