The Midwest can expect strong winds, hail, and possibly tornadoes with the storms. The unsettled weather will make its way into the Ohio Valley toward the end of the day.
A second front extending from the system could trigger showers and storms across the northern and central Plains, with the chance of severe storms across Montana and Wyoming, and possibly South Dakota and Nebraska as well.
A small area of low pressure located over Texas and Oklahoma will produce showers and storms across the southern Plains, where temperatures were expected to be in the 90s and 100s.
Cloudy conditions were forecast for most of New England, along with the possibility of a few showers. The
Mid-Atlantic can expect to see generally clear conditions. Temperatures will range from 70s in New England to the 80s and some 90s in the warmest areas of the
Mid-Atlantic.
A few showers and storms were possible in the Southeast. Otherwise, the region will see mostly sunny and warm conditions, and temperatures will reach the 80s and 90s, with 100s in the warmest areas.
An approaching front will bring clouds and wet weather to the Pacific Northwest. The rest of the Northwest was to see mostly clear skies, except for the possibility of thunderstorms spreading in from the Plains. Temperatures will be cooler, with highs only reaching the 60s along the coast and the 70s farther inland.
Some storms were possible in the Southwest, the Four Corners region and eastern Nevada. Temperatures are expected to rise into the 90s and 100s, with the desert areas reaching 110.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states on Monday ranged from a low of 35 degrees at Truckee-Tahoe, Calif., to a high of 108 degrees at Wichita Falls, Texas.
