…Scattered thunderstorms (including some severe) possible in the Central
Plains today…
…Lingering unsettled weather in the Pacific Northwest…
…Well above-average temperatures continue over the Central and Eastern
U.S…
The forecast remains on track for a compact frontal system in the High
Plains to drive scattered thunderstorms across the Heartland today, some
of which could be severe. The Storm Prediction Center continues to monitor
west-central Kansas and adjacent portions of Nebraska over the next
several hours for thunderstorms capable of producing large hail, damaging
winds, and perhaps a tornado this afternoon and evening.
Otherwise, the pattern over much of the CONUS should remain fairly
tranquil for the next several days. Cool, unsettled weather will linger
across the Pacific Northwest tonight as a cold front weakens overhead
before conditions improve tomorrow. Across the Central and Eastern U.S.,
well above-average temperatures in the 70s and 80s will continue through
midweek, which could topple a handful of daily high temperature records
each day.
