Early morning rain in the upper Mississippi Valley was to give way to a temporary dry period in the late morning before another wet spell spills into the region from the central Plains.
The heaviest rain was expected to fall in Iowa and Wisconsin, further increasing flooding concerns.
Some storms were to push into western New England late in the day, but most of the precipitation should remain on the Canadian side of the border.
A low-pressure system was to scoot over Florida and provide more scattered showers and thunderstorms. The region was to remain hot with temperatures in the 90s and 100s.
In the West, scattered showers and thunderstorms were likely to develop in the afternoon, mainly along the Rocky Mountain boundary.
Temperatures in the Southwest were to rise into the 90s and 100s, while the Pacific Northwest could see temperatures in the 70s and 80s. The Northeast should rise into the 70s and 80s.
Temperatures in the lower 48 states on Wednesday ranged from a low of 33 degrees at Saranac Lake, N.Y., to a high of 113 degrees at Bullhead City, Ariz.
