 A cold front was expected to move across the northern Plains and portions of the Upper Mississippi Valley, producing widely scattered showers and thunderstorms.
Strong to severe storms were likely to fire up along and ahead of the cold front in the afternoon over the western Dakotas, spreading eastward into the Upper Mississippi Valley. The main threat will be strong damaging winds, hail and potential tornadoes.
Moving to the South, tropical moisture streaming northeast from central Mexico will keep numerous showers and scattered thunderstorms over New Mexico and western Texas.
In addition, typical summertime afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms will persist over the Gulf States and parts of the Southeast.
In the East Coast, a chance of showers and thunderstorms will remain in the region Monday, due to a weak trough over the Great Lakes, slowly moving eastward. Precipitation should be mostly on the light side.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Sunday ranged from a low of 33 degrees at Truckee, Calif., to a high of 119 degrees at Death Valley, Calif.
