Overview
- Widespread dangerous heat continues with Heat Advisories in parts of South and Central Florida and the Midwest, and heat‑index readings near or above 110 degrees in some metro areas.
- Afternoon and evening scattered storms are expected across many regions with hazards that include heavy downpours, frequent lightning, damaging wind gusts, and isolated flash flooding.
- Monsoonal moisture is fueling stronger mountain storms in the Interior West that can produce localized flooding and mudslides near burn scars while coastal areas see more variable storm coverage.
- The National Hurricane Center is tracking multiple Atlantic disturbances, notably Invest 92L with a high short‑term chance of development, but wind shear and Saharan dust could limit how strong any system becomes.
- Forecast guidance shows a trough and frontal passage late this week that should bring cooler, drier air to parts of New England and sections of the West for a few days, though heat and storm threats will persist elsewhere.
