An overall active weather pattern across the nation will continue into the month of July and it is currently resulting in some severe weather across the central Plains and also the risk of flash flooding. In fact, the risks of severe weather and flash flooding will extend well to the east during the next few days and likely reach the Mid-Atlantic region at the start of the upcoming weekend. Low pressure and a painfully slow-moving frontal system will play key roles in the unsettled weather conditions into the weekend. Looking ahead to next week, hot weather will push into the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor by Tuesday and high temperatures well up in the 90’s are likely in the big cities through the end of the work week.
