The Northeast will finally get some relief from the hot temperatures as a slow moving front will bring rain. However, some of the storms ahead of the front will be severe, with the primary threat being damaging winds. The Storm Prediction Center has issued a slight risk (level 2 out of 5) for Philadelphia, Baltimore, charlotte, and Washington. Flooding will also be a concern Wednesday morning as the frontal boundary passes.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot 2025-07-09 040836-1752055729704.png">The flood watches come after Chantal, a Tropical Storm that produced heavy rainfall across the Carolinas, therefore some of these areas are already saturated.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot 2025-07-09 041120-1752055892540.png"><h1>Severe Outlooks</h1>Severe weather outlooks have been issued for the next three days as a cold front moves into this hot and unstable air mass. With the loss of daytime heating, the severe threat is now marginal. On Wednesday, as the front slides east, the risk is SLIGHT (level 2 out of 5) for severe storms across the Carolinas, Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware. On Thursday, the SPC expanded the MARGINAL risk from New England through Georgia.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot 2025-07-08 135520-1752004747455.png">Friday the SPC keeps a MARGINAL risk around for Washington, Roanoke, and Columbia.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot 2025-07-09 041249-1752056041320.png"><h2>Timing</h2>Storms will happen along and ahead of the frontal boundary. Over the next few days, strong to severe storms can develop, and during peak heating is when the risk for damaging winds and large hail will be the greatest.<video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/2025-07-09 04-14-40-1752056136088.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video> Tune into WeatherNation :10 the hour for the Eastern Regional Forecast for more details.

WEST - Heat alerts have been issued across the western U.S.. The cause of this heat wave is an upper-level ridge building in from Mexico. This will be responsible for the intense heat in the southwest.Heat advisories (orange), extreme heat warnings (pink), and extreme heat watches (red) have been issued for portions of California, Nevada, and Arizona through Thursday. Temperatures may rise to 110-116°F in some of these locations. Too hot for the human body to handle. Unfortunately, heat is the deadliest weather phenomenon in the USA.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot 2025-07-08 131544-1752002204893.png">Here's a look at our forecasted temperatures in comparison to the average.

Energy spinning off the Rockies is forcing the development of strong to severe thunderstorms.<h2>SEVERE OUTLOOKS:</h2>WednesdayThe SPC has issued a marginal to slight risk for severe storms in portions of the Plains on Wednesday as a cold front dives south. The best timing for severe storms will be during peak heating towards the afternoon and evening.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/wednesday-1752024027289.png">ThursdayA slight risk for severe weather includes the Plains and Northern Plains. Large hail and damaging wind are possible.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/tomer plains thur svr-1752018402952.jpg">Storms developed on Tuesday, and will continue to follow a frontal boundary as it moves south and east. The plains and Midwest will be active over the next few days.<video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/fjfjf-1752022164338.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video>Flooding could become an issue, especially if storms get hung up trying to press south tonight. The greatest risk for something like that would be in eastern Oklahoma or portions of Arkansas.

Tropical Storm Chantal formed Saturday morning and made landfall early Sunday morning with sustained winds of 50 mph. Winds have knocked down some palm fronds and lead to a foot or two of storm surge so far. Chantal turned into an inland flooding threat, especially in North Carolina.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot 2025-07-07 073731-1751895631663.png"><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot 2025-07-07 074408-1751895856913.png"><h1>Forecast</h1>The remnants of Chantal will continue to move Northeast and eventually get picked-up by an inbound cold front and carried back out to sea. Until that happens, efficient rainfall could produce some localized areas of flooding Monday. <video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/tomer chantal futurecast-1751848909743.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video>A narrow band of heavy rain accumulation is possible through Tuesday morning.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/Screenshot 2025-07-07 074157-1751895727202.png">Catch more details on the southeast during your Southeastern Regional Forecast, :10 past the hour on WeatherNation.

Following the prolific start to the season, the Eastern Pacific remains quite active as the National Hurricane Center is tracking two different areas of interest southwest of Mexico. Invest 96E or the orange highlighted area has a medium chance of development in the next couple of days. The chances have backed off as it appears less likely that something will come together. The region outlined in yellow is quickly falling apart with 0% chance of development.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/tomer tropics epac-1751913671695.jpg">The spaghetti plots show 96-E remaining well south of Mexico as it churns westward. This will limit impacts to the west coast of Mexico but interests in Hawaii should keep an eye on this system for the potential of increased rain chances next week.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/tomer e pac spag-1751848680670.jpg">This system could bring stronger currents to Mexico's coast, but if it remains weak before moving farther west impacts should be minimal.<video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/07/tomer e pac futurecast-1751848767502.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video>For more details on this forecast, be sure to check out the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCPEP1+shtml/020252.shtml">National Hurricane Center's </a>website.
