Tropical Depression Two is expected to gradually strengthen and could bring tropical storm conditions to the Florida Panhandle beginning late Monday. Areas of flash flooding will be possible through Thursday along the eastern and central Gulf Coast. Severe thunderstorms will develop and move along a cold front crossing the Upper Midwest Monday, and through the Ohio Valley/Mid-Atlantic on Tuesday. Read More >

“Cooler” and unsettled weather is expected through Thursday. Leftover smoke should subside today. Expect two rounds of showers and thunderstorms. The first round is expected tonight and Wednesday morning with the second round Wednesday night and Thursday. While not every location will get beneficial due to the nature of summertime thunderstorms, the atmosphere will be water-laden and thus, if you are lucky enough to get under a stronger storm, beneficial rainfall will occur. Highs today will be in the upper 70s to around 90F. Highs Wednesday and Thursday will be in the 70s and 80s. The heat returns for Friday into the weekend with widespread 100F+ readings developing.
