Alana Cameron was born and raised in Canada in the city of Mississauga, just outside of Toronto. Alana is the oldest of 4 siblings, all close in age, and grew up playing outside with them in all types of weather. After graduating high school, Alana moved to study at the University of British Columbia in Kelowna for a year before transferring to Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia where she completed a Bachelor of Science in Physics and Atmospheric Science. Upon completion, Alana moved back to Toronto where she completed a post-grad degree in Meteorology at York University. After her post-grad, she went on to complete another post-grad in Broadcast Journalism - TV News at Fanshawe College in London, Ontario. During her final year of studies she had the privilege of interning with the best in the business in Canada at The Weather Network. Once she finished her internship, she got the call from small-town Denison, Texas where she accepted a job as an on-air meteorologist at KTEN-TV, right in tornado alley, covering severe weather from Sherman/Denison (North Texas) to Ada (Southern Oklahoma). After the most active tornado season Oklahoma had seen in May 2019 (105 tornadoes!) Alana is excited to join WeatherNation to cover weather all across the nation.

<p>A large upper-level low is bringing severe weather to parts of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast states. Storms will continue through Tuesday, bringing 60 mph winds to the eastern seaboard. <strong>ABOVE - </strong>The Storm Prediction Center has maintained a <strong>SLIGHT</strong> (level 2 out of 5) risk of severe thunderstorms, including the Wolverine State. Damaging winds will be the biggest concern, with an isolated threat for tornadoes.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/06/Screenshot 2025-06-09 164842-1749509331670.png"></p><h2>Forecast Timing</h2><p>Scattered storms along the frontal boundary are likely to continue overnight, with damaging winds as the main threat.

If the front presses offshore for some areas, you can kiss the severe threat goodbye. However, where it doesn't, the door will be open for another afternoon. The best shot at that will be in Virginia and the Carolinas.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/06/Screenshot 2025-06-09 140757-1749499831100.png"></p><h2>Rainfall Forecast</h2><p>The other thing to watch out for, especially with multiple rounds of storms, is flooding. A few more inches will be possible, in areas that have seen plenty of rain recently and usually aren't very receptive to a lot anyway. A few counties have been added to a <strong>flood watch</strong>.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/06/Screenshot 2025-06-09 165038-1749509441978.png"></p><p>For more details on how this could impact temperatures and wildfire smoke, be sure to tune into WeatherNation at :10 past the hour.</p>

That interest was fostered by his teachers and his father, who one time brought him onto the roof of their home to watch a funnel cloud move through the Everglades several miles away. Years of filmmaking and tv production in high school gradually pushed him toward broadcast meteorology at Florida State University, where he joined and eventually led the student run daily weather show. After graduating with a Bachelors of Science in Meteorology, he began his career at KESQ in Palm Springs, California before heading to KFSN in Fresno and WLOS in Asheville, North Carolina. He has covered a diverse array of extreme weather events, including haboobs and flash flooding in the desert, extreme snow in the Sierra, hurricanes, and Appalachian ice storms. He also enjoys telling stories and reporting about weather issues.

<p>Even through summer is approaching, the northern lights may still dazzle millions into Monday morning. A powerful solar flare erupted from sun late Friday night, with an Earth directed coronal mass ejection (CME) expected to arrive sometime Sunday.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/ezgif-51637e8d7b470f-1748712327325.gif"></p><p>Astronomers are in a wait and see mode for how strong the CME may be, but many are hopeful it will be strong enough to bring aurora borealis down to the mid-latitudes, including a large portion of the north United States late Sunday into Monday. The Space Weather Prediction Center is expected G3 conditions, with the potential for G4 conditions by the 2nd, or early Monday morning. Their latest forecast shows the potential to view the aurora down to I-80 in Iowa and Nebraska.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot 2025-05-31 112223-1748712236698.png"></p><p>G4 conditions would mean that Aurora viewing would be possible even further south, especially for long-exposure photography. It is worth noting the timing and strength of a CME is difficult to forecast, but satellites away from the Earth will be able to confirm if and when a CME impact is expected with about 30 minutes of lead time for Earthlings. This means if you plan to try to view the aurora, stay up to date with the Space Weather Prediction Center's latest conditions.</p><h2>Cloud Forecast</h2><p>Even if the aurora may be visible overhead, it doesn't mean clouds won't ruin your fun.

The storm is expected to weaken to a remnant low as it nears Cabo San Lucas Saturday, but will still pack scattered heavy showers.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot 2025-05-31 053724-1748691617272.png">Moisture from this system is expected to move into portions of the Southwest this weekend, increasing chances for thunderstorms and flooding.</p><h1><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot 2025-05-30 053532-1748604940060.png">Next System</h1><p>The next system in the Eastern Pacific basin may not be far behind Alvin. An area of low pressure could form west of Guatemala next week. With conditions favorable for development, Barbara may not be far behind Alvin. Steering currents would likely take this system to the west away from Central America.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot 2025-05-31 054558-1748691965709.png"></p><h1>Pacific Tropical Climatology</h1><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot 2025-05-20 073348-1747748094171.png"> Stay with WeatherNation for the latest.</p><p></p>

<p><strong>TEXAS -</strong> Destructive warned thunderstorms brought hail up to 3 inches on Wednesday, and as drastic as that may be, it has been on the smaller side over the past several days. Hail up to 6 inches in diameter was reported Sunday in Afton, Texas, as powerful supercells developed strong updrafts capable of producing massive hail. On Monday, a hailstone reached 5 inches. A nearly stationary front stretching from the Southeast to the Central Rockies draws warm, moist air northward from the Gulf. This influx of moisture is fueling widespread showers and thunderstorms across the region. There is also a cold front that will be diving down across the lone star state on Thursday bringing additional storms.</p><div class="twitter-tweet" style="display: flex; justify-content: center" data-twitt-post-id="1926797935129624966" src="https://x.com/WeatherNation/status/1926797935129624966"></div><p></p><p></p><p>On Thursday, more  large and destructive hail fell across parts of New Mexico and Texas.

<p>A magical sight is coming to Manhattan tonight and tomorrow! As the sun sets, looks west on any of the east-west oriented thoroughfares in the city to see the sun perfectly fitting between the buildings! The phenomena is called Mannhattanhenge, and it comes around four times per year - tonight is the first night. We'll do it again tomorrow night, but the other two nights will be July 12-13.</p><p></p><h4>Half 'Henge:</h4><ul><li><p>May 28</p></li><li><p>Saturday, July 12<br></p></li></ul><h4>Full 'Henge:</h4><ul><li><p>Thursday, May 29</p></li><li><p>Friday, July 11</p></li></ul><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot 2025-05-28 075531-1748440621091.png"></p><h1>WHAT CAUSES IT?</h1><p>During our journey around the sun, Earth's tilt towards (or away) from the sun changes. Two times a year, in late May and early to mid-July, the sun lines up to nestle between the towering skyscrapers in New York City. According to the American Museum of Natural History, "Unnoticed by many, the sunset point actually creeps day to day along the horizon: northward until the first day of summer, then returning southward until the first day of winter"</p><p>They have a lot more information about the event on their website: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.amnh.org/research/hayden-planetarium/manhattanhenge">Manhattanhenge</a></p><p></p><h1>HOW IS THE FORECAST LOOKING</h1><p>July: not even a single clue but probably hot.</p><p>May: This wave of moisture pushing in is looking like it'll obscure the view Wednesday night. </p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/2025-05-2807-57-42-ezgif.com-video-to-gif-converter-1748440740531.gif"></p><p>Thursday, on the other hand, looks like a mix of sun and clouds, which shouldn't impede any viewing plans!</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/05/2025-05-2807-32-59-ezgif.com-video-to-gif-converter-1748440358907.gif"></p>
