Good Morning,

A weak stationary front will trigger numerous showers and thunderstorms across the central Gulf Coast and Florida today. Flash flooding will be possible across southern Georgia and north-central Florida. Temperatures will top out 80s in Florida to 90s and 100 degrees acoss most of the Deep South.

Warm and dry weather is expected across the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast with most locations topping out in the 80s.

It will be another hot day with high temperatures in the 90s and 100s across the Central and Southern Plains. The Northern Plains will be more comfortable with highs in the 80s.

A wave of low pressure will bring a chance of strong to severe thunderstorms across the Midwest. The main threats will be large hail and damaging winds. The tornado threat is low.

Showers and thunderstorms will develop over the Four Corners. Some of the thunderstorms will produce heavy rainfall and flash flooding. 1 to 2 inches of rainfall will be possible.

Hot and dry weather is expected for northern California, Oregon, Idaho, and Washington. High temperatures will reach into the upper 90s.

In the Central Pacific, Hurricane Guillermo is still a category 2 storm with winds of 105mph. Guillermo is moving WNW at 12MPH. Guillermo will remain over open waters towards Hawii over the next several days. However, Guillermo will weaken due to cooler water and unfavorable upper-level winds. Guillermo will weaken to a tropical storm by the time it arrives in Hawaii.

Conditions are quiet across the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and the North Atlantic. Tropical cyclone formation is not expected during the next several days.

Enjoy your Sunday!
