...Severe thunderstorms and flash flooding will impact portions of the
Gulf Coast tonight and the Southeast on Tuesday...

...Above-average temperatures expected for South Florida and the West...

A slow-moving frontal boundary extending along the Gulf Coast will remain
a focus for unsettled weather, with severe thunderstorms and heavy rain
expected to impact portions of the region through Tuesday.  Ongoing
showers and storms are likely to continue through tonight, with severe
storms expected from south-central and southeast Texas across southern
Louisiana, as well as the Florida Panhandle.  The Storm Prediction Center
(SPC) has highlighted these areas with an Enhanced Risk (level 3/5) for
severe weather, indicating the potential exists for multiple corridors of
damaging winds, very large hail, and a few tornadoes.  In addition to the
severe weather threat, abundant moisture pooling along front will support
heavy rainfall and the potential for flooding.  A Slight Risk (level 2/4)
for excessive rainfall extends along the Gulf Coast from southeast Texas
through the Florida Panhandle, with a Moderate Risk (level 3/4) from
southeast Louisiana to the Florida Panhandle.

Drier air will push through the western Gulf Coast, confining the threat
for severe storms and heavy rainfall to northern Florida and southern
Georgia on Tuesday.  SPC is indicating a Slight Risk (level 2/5) for
severe weather and WPC is highlighting the area with a Slight Risk for
excessive rainfall. 

Further to the north, a low pressure system will drift slowly east,
spreading showers and thunderstorms from the lower Missouri and mid
Mississippi valleys to the Ohio Valley tonight.  Showers and storms will
continue across these areas on Tuesday while expanding east through the
Mid-Atlantic and the Northeast.  Unsettled weather will persist across the
Mid-Atlantic and the Northeast through Wednesday.  A brief window of drier
weather over the Mississippi Valley late Tuesday into early Wednesday will
be followed by the next round of showers and storms that will begin to
spread into the region by late Wednesday. 

Before impacting the central U.S. on Wednesday, this previously noted
system will spread showers and storms followed by much cooler temperatures
from the northern Rockies into central Rockies and High Plains on Tuesday.


Temperatures will remain well above-normal, with near to record high
temperatures expected across South Florida Tuesday and Wednesday.  While
not expected to be record-setting, temperatures will build across much of
the West, reaching well-above normal highs across the region by midweek.
