The Nation's Weather for Saturday, July 8, 2023

_____

NATIONAL SUMMARY

While much of the East will remain hot and humid today, a

few thunderstorms are forecast to erupt near and just to the

east of the Appalachians. As a storm system moves along,

thunderstorms packing heavy rain and gusty winds will

advance across the southern Plains and Midwest. Localized

flooding can occur where downpours persist. This same system

is expected to bring heavy rain and the risk of flooding to

parts of the Northeast on Sunday and Sunday night. A batch

of cooler and less humid air will expand over the North

Central states. However, smoky conditions may accompany the

cooler conditions. Aside from a few storms over the northern

High Plains and Snake River basin, much of the West will be

dry and sunny. Even though heat may lessen today, it is

expected to build significantly over the interior next week.
