<p style="margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt; color: #454545;">Rob grew up in South Florida, where daily afternoon storms and hurricanes piqued his interest in meteorology early on. 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>Secondary severe weather season is underway across the U.S. - so called because it <em>typically</em> pales in comparison to the primary severe weather season in the spring. However, the fall can provide high-end severe weather threats of its own, including the December 2021 tornado outbreak.<br><br>Thankfully, the severe weather setup for this Friday through Sunday doesn't look to be on the high-end, but a few scattered severe storms will be possible.</p><hr><h1>SETUP</h1><p>Gulf moisture will be surging north in warm air to meet the cold front, where wind shear will be elevated to help organize updrafts.

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. If you're interested in following her on social media she can be found @alanacameronwx!

<p><strong>NORTHERN PLAINS - </strong>As we head into the end of the week, an upper-level trough north of the border will usher cooler air into the northern U.S. With a couple of fronts passing through, temperatures may drop low enough to support some snow.

<p>An upper-level low has been moving across the country, bringing rainy, windy, and cooler weather to many areas. Heavy rain caused flooding issues in the Northeast on Thursday where over 3 inches of rain fell in New York and New Jersey. The system moves out later tonight but parts of Northern New England could see some light snow.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/10/New Baron Video 3-1761966114231.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><p>We may even see minor snow accumulations in parts of the Adirondacks, as well as the Green and White mountains.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/10/1-1761966147465.png"></p><p>As the rain clears, expect cloudy, cool, and gusty conditions to persist into Saturday morning.

Gusty Winds & Rain Linger in the Northeast on Friday

ezgif4661e7a465b581gif-1761915810455.gif

We have been talking about flooding rains in the forecast for California today, but there could also be some flooding rains in the forecast for parts of the Mississippi Valley next week.  This includes parts of Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma.
<h2>Forecast</h2>
<img class="alignnone wp-image-89161 size-full" src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2018/03/Capture-17.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

An area of low pressure moving through the Central Plains will be moving into a favorable environment for strong to severe storms.  The main threat with these storms right now will be very heavy rain.  The potential for flash flooding will be in the forecast by next week.
<h2><img class="alignnone wp-image-89162 size-full" src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2018/03/Capture2-15.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" /></h2>
There will be plenty of energy available with this system as it moves over parts of Oklahoma and Texas.  This will be energy available to produce showers and thunderstorms.
<h3>Rainfall Potential</h3>
It is still very far out in the forecast, but all indications are hinting at a heavy rain event by late Monday and through Tuesday for parts of Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri.  Even Illinois could see some of this substantial rainfall.

<img class="alignnone wp-image-89166 size-full" src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2018/03/Bomb-7.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

The latest forecast is showing 3-6" of rain for a large part of the Mississippi Valley.  This could definitely lead to flooding concerns.
<h2>Extended Outlook</h2>
<img class="alignnone wp-image-89164 size-full" src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2018/03/Capture3-15.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

<img class="alignnone wp-image-89165 size-full" src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2018/03/Capture4-16.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

Here are some city forecasts where you can see the shower and storm chances next week.  Witchita, KS is showing storm chances by Monday and in St. Louis, MO is showing heavy rain by Tuesday.

Right now there is no risk of severe weather, but I definitely think there could be some strong to severe storms with this setup so be weather aware for next week!
