<p>South Carolina and western Georgia are in for some stronger thunderstorms today with westerly flow in the upper levels of the atmosphere meeting low-level buoyancy. The combination of these features will help bring in a few stronger thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening hours.</p><h2>Tuesday</h2><p>Due to our low level lapse rates, our primary risk for Tuesday will be the potential for damaging winds gusts, although hail will be possible in these areas. The Storm Prediction Center has maintained a <strong>MARGINAL</strong> (level 1 out of 5) risk for severe thunderstorms Tuesday. Isolated to at times, scattered, thunderstorms are likely again by this afternoon.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/spc today-1686052693805.jpg"></p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/2023-06-06 05-53-01-1686052701064.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><h2>Wednesday - Thursday</h2><p>Wednesday's severe weather risk is more isolated to coastal South Carolina and Georgia and storms will favor the coast in the morning. However, an incoming cold front Wednesday afternoon will create more widespread showers and storms. The threats remain damaging wind and hail with the potential for a few isolated strong wind gusts.

<p>WEST: Over the new few days, the pattern that's been guiding our overall weather set-up will shift making room for hot temperatures in the northwest and below-average temperatures late week in the southwest.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/west heat-1686020951128.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><h1>Northwest</h1><p>The next couple of days for the northwest will bring in well-above average temperatures. Many of us will be warming up to the 80s and 90s and keeping this summer like pattern going.  Though this isn't "record setting heat" it still is quite warm, anywhere from 10-20° above average. Please make sure you take care of yourself and your neighbors, seeking the shade and A/C where you can. </p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_rnw_temps-1686021136315.jpg">The Weather Prediction Center has issued an excessive heat outlook for Thursday in Washington and Idaho, showing us that the heat will carry on for the Intermountain West.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_rnw_excessive heat-1686021102925.jpg"></p><h1>Southwest</h1><p>Meanwhile, the southwestern U.S. will be caught up in an upper level low. This will bring in some cooler Pacific air to keep temperatures slightly below average. While still quite hot compared to many locations in the country, temps will run about 10-15° below average for cities in the Southwest. </p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_sw set-up-1686021211981.jpg">Take a look at temperatures over the next couple of days.

Western Temperatures: Heat in PNW, Cool in SW

<p>The multi-day flood threat is back for the Great Plains and Front Range from Denver to Amarillo as a constant stream of moisture works in from the Gulf of Mexico. This moisture then hits the Rockies, producing daily thunderstorms, some of which will be severe. The grounds are overly saturated (above) meaning additional moisture will be difficult to absorb. Denver and Colorado Springs saw their 4th and 6th wettest May, respectively with the Texas panhandle experiencing equally soggy conditions. In fact, Dalhart and Borger saw their wettest May month on record!</p><h2>Flood Threat</h2><p>The Weather Prediction Center (WPC) has highlighted the risk for excessive rainfall over the next couple of days, from Wyoming through southern Texas with the marginal risk (lowest threat level) and a <strong>SLIGHT</strong> risk of flooding from El Paso, TX to Denver, CO. Any thunderstorm that develops could quickly put down 1-2" of rainfall, overwhelming soils and creating flood concerns. On Thursday, the flood risk is less widespread, favoring more of the I-25 corridor. </p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/2023-06-06 06-00-32-1686053137153.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><p>Indications are for anywhere from 1-3" of rainfall over the next three days. While this may not seem like a lot of rain for other parts of the country, this much rainfall in a short period of time in the Great Plains can cause major issues. The other thing we will be watching will be for rainfall over recent area burn scars, especially in New Mexico where rainfall could cause mudslides and debris flow.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/rainfall potential-1686052907140.jpg"></p><h2>Severe Weather Concerns</h2><p>In addition to the flood threat we also have the risk of severe storms, developing along the dryline on both Tuesday and Wednesday. There is a <strong>MARGINAL</strong> (level 1 out of 5) threat for most of New Mexico and the Texas Panhandle both days. Primary threats are damaging winds and hail. Storms don't look to be as intense compared to last week's severe weather, but they will be widespread, meaning the flood concern will be elevated.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/spc nm today-1686053370139.jpg"><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/spc tx wed-1686053359193.jpg">Showers and storms develop in the afternoon and evening hours, using the terrain and the dryline to develop, moving into the Plains as the evening progresses. Some of these storms will linger into the overnight hours, pushing into central Texas as MCS's or Mesoscale Convective Systems, producing heavy rain and lightning. More storms develop in the hills on Wednesday with similar threats. Storms will be widespread at times, bringing torrential rainfall to already saturated soils, increasing the risk of flash flooding. Please do not drive through flooded roadways, "turn around, don't drown". </p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/2023-06-06 06-03-38-1686053192462.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><p>For more on the flood risk and severe weather concerns, join WeatherNation for your central and western regional forecasts, always :30 and :50 past the hour, respectively.</p>

Flood Threat from Colorado to Central Texas this Week

saturatedjpg-1685972766757.jpeg

<p>Hurricane Season is underway in the Atlantic and we have our eyes on potential development in the Northeast Atlantic with a low, but non-zero, threat of development over the next week. We've already had our first named storm of the season - Arlene - named the first day of the Atlantic Hurricane Season. This was our second storm of the season, with a subtropical low from January registering as our first tropical system of 2023. The next name up on the list is Bret if this system in the Atlantic gets organized. The placement of this area of low pressure is a bit unusual for tropical development - we typically see June storms form in the Caribbean and move into the Gulf of Mexico. Not to say development elsewhere in the Basin is rare, its just climatologically not favored.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/june-1685991554952.jpg">As a reminder, both NOAA and forecasters at Colorado State University are calling for a near normal season, balancing the impact of warmer than average sea surface temperatures and the El Nino conditions expected to develop by the peak of hurricane season. They will play tug of war with the potential for storm development this year.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/NOAA-1685991570866.jpg">Stay with WeatherNation for the latest in the tropics throughout hurricane season which runs through late November.</p>

Atlantic Hurricane Season: Watching the Tropics

<p>A persistent pattern is keeping the radar active in the Northern Rockies. Overnight, the Storm Prediction Center has maintained a <strong>MARGINAL</strong> risk (level 1 out of 5) for severe storms along I-15 in Montana where locally large hail and damaging winds gusts remain possible. </p><p>The reason for this pattern? A strong ridge of high pressure has been parked over the north-central U.S. and an area of low pressure near the Pacific Northwest which are working together to produce a strong southerly flow, bringing moisture from the Gulf of Mexico as far north as the Canadian Border.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_water vapor-1686020040901.jpg">Showers and storms become widespread each afternoon with heavy rain, lightning, and gusty winds. If you have outdoor plans, the mornings will definitely be your best chance of staying dry.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_r rockies 18z-1686020416706.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><p>For the latest Flash Flood Warnings, download the WeatherNation app. Warnings will always be scrolling at the bottom of the screen.

Northern Rockies Flood Threat and Strong Storms

0605_RNWMTjpg-1686020477308.jpeg

<p>A cutoff area of low pressure is migrating from the Pacific into the Four Corners region in the Southwest U.S. This storm system is overall weak but will still provide enough upper-level energy to assist with daily thunderstorm development over the Southwest.</p><h2>Severe Threats</h2><p>Over the next two days, we have the potential for severe weather in the western United States. Tuesday's risk includes northern California and Nevada along with the Snake River Valley with similar storm threats.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/spc tue-1685990909938.jpg">On Wednesday the severe weather threat is centered through northern California, Oregon, Idaho, and western Montana. Winds in the upper level of our atmosphere will be from the east and southeast while at the surface we expect westerly winds. This shear, or turning of wind with height will support storm development, especially over the higher terrain. Our primary threat will be damaging winds but we could see marginally large hail as storms develop.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/spc wed-1685990935283.jpg"></p><h2>Forecast</h2><p>Thunderstorms develop in the heat of the day over the higher terrain, some of which will be severe. Most, however, will be heavy rainstorms with lightning as well. Expect daily showers and storms that mostly develop over the higher terrain, and while we may only get a quick 0.5" of rain, it can overwhelm the ground. While storms won't likely reach severe criteria (58 mph winds or 1 inch hail), they will still be capable of producing gusty winds, small hail, and the threat of frequent lightning. Remember, "When thunder roars, head indoors".</p><h1><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_west fcst rain-1686019865095.jpg"><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_wpc west next 3 days-1686019889094.jpg">Timing</h1><p>Here's a look at the timing of our southwest low driven storms.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_18z west through wed am-1686019974702.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><p>For more on the Southwest forecast, join us for your Western Regional Forecast, always :50 past the hour.</p>

Cutoff Low Produces Severe Weather in the Western U.S.

cutoffjpg-1685990702839.jpeg

<p>An upper-level low is bringing cooler air to the Northeast and helping to transport in plenty of wildfire smoke too. A surface low-pressure system will keep showers around for the Northeast over the next few days while smoke pushes into the Midwest and Upper Great Lakes.</p><h2>Temperatures</h2><p>Temperatures stay on the cool side as a reinforcing push of cold air moves into our region. A surface front overnight and an upper-level low mid-week will work together to bring in some cooler Canadian air for New England to keep temperatures slightly cooler than average.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_rne_fcst temps new-1686019048951.jpg"></p><h1>Rainfall</h1><p>A cold front moves in through Tuesday to bring in some scattered showers and storms, but in the meantime, our coastal low will continue to flow in some Atlantic moisture for northern New England. By no means do these storms look to be widespread, but they will bring much-needed rainfall to the region. Rain should also help to scour out some of the smoke that is thick through the Great Lakes region and the Northeast.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2023/06/06-05_rne 18z-1686019205247.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><h2>Smoke</h2><p>With our upper-level ridging in the central U.S. and troughing in the northeast, smokey air will continue to travel down from Canada into the Great Lakes regions.
