Good evening,
Wet weather will impact the Great Lakes and lower Mississippi Valley as the second half of the week approaches due to a powerful storm system that will produce strong thunderstorms as it makes its way east.
Severe thunderstorms are expected to extend from southern Arkansas into the Great Lakes bringing with it flash flooding and isolated damaging winds that may cause travel delays through many interstates and airports across the nation. This storm system was responsible for over 5 inches of rain through the upper Midwest earlier this week and as it travels eastward it will threaten the eastern and mid-Atlantic states with not only heavy downpours and strong wind gusts but will also bring a dip in temperatures by the end of the work week with digits hovering in the 60s and 70s for a couple of days.
Far out in the Atlantic, Tropical Storm Danny is making a name for itself potentially becoming the first hurricane of the season. Currently moving westward at 50mph, this system is being watched closely as atmospheric conditions can become favorable as the week progresses. The exact track of this storm is not yet clear, however, many islands in the Caribbean have been experiencing extreme drought the past couple of months and can benefit from any rain Danny would produce.
Enjoy your evening!
Jen Gonzalez
