...MORE ACTIVE WEATHER ACROSS THE MID SECTIONS OF THE NATION, WITH  
ADDITIONAL ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS, HEAVY RAINS, FLASH FLOODING  
AND SEVERE WEATHER...  
 
...HEAT TO CONTINUE ACROSS SOUTHWEST TO SOUTH TEXAS AND MUCH OF  
FLORIDA, WHILE BUILDING ACROSS THE INLAND VALLEYS OF CALIFORNIA...  
 
...COOLER THAN AVERAGE TEMPERATURES FOR THE PLAINS AND LARGE  
PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN U.S...  
 
NO LET UP TO THE RECENT VERY ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS THE MID  
SECTION OF THE NATION OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. HEAVY RAINS, FLASH  
FLOODING AND SEVERE WEATHER THAT HAS BEEN FOCUSING ACROSS THE  
SOUTHERN PLAINS OVER THE PAST TWO DAYS WILL BE RE-FOCUSING FARTHER  
TO THE NORTH WEDNESDAY EVENING ACROSS THE NORTHERN TO CENTRAL HIGH  
PLAINS AHEAD OF A STRONG COLD FRONT PUSHING EASTWARD ACROSS THIS  
AREA. THIS THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE  
SEVERE WEATHER, HEAVY RAINS AND ISOLATED FLASH FLOODING OVERNIGHT  
INTO EARLY THURSDAY ACROSS THE NORTHERN TO CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS AS  
THE THUNDERSTORMS PUSH EASTWARD. BY LATE THURSDAY AFTERNOON,  
STRONG SOUTHERN STREAM MID TO UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES ARE  
EXPECTED TO PUSH INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS, INITIATING ANOTHER  
ROUND OF ACTIVE AND POTENTIALLY IMPACTFUL THUNDERSTORMS.  
ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAINS, FLASH FLOODING AND SEVERE WEATHER ARE  
POSSIBLE ACROSS A LARGE PORTION OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS FROM NORTH  
TEXAS, ACROSS MUCH OF OKLAHOMA, KANSAS, SOUTHERN NEBRASKA AND  
EASTERN COLORADO.  
 
NO BIG CHANGES EXPECTED TO THE RECENT HEAT ACROSS SOUTHWEST TO  
SOUTH TEXAS AND ACROSS MUCH OF FLORIDA, WITH MUCH ABOVE AVERAGE  
TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO PERSIST ACROSS THESE REGIONS OVER THE  
NEXT FEW DAYS. THERE WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE POTENTIAL FOR RECORD  
HIGH AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL TO  
SOUTHWEST FLORIDA THURSDAY AND FRIDAY ALONG WITH RECORD HIGH  
MORNING LOW TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE FLORIDA KEYS THURSDAY AND  
FRIDAY MORNINGS. HOT TEMPERATURES ALSO EXPECTED TO BE EXPANDING  
ACROSS THE INTERIOR VALLEYS OF CALIFORNIA OVER THE NEXT TWO DAYS  
WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES REACHING THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 90S. THESE  
TEMPERATURES, HOWEVER, WILL REMAIN BELOW RECORD VALUES FOR THESE  
DATES. IN CONTRAST TO THE ABOVE MENTIONED HOT TEMPERATURES,  
COOLER THAN AVERAGE TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST ACROSS MUCH OF THE  
PLAINS DUE TO THE ONGOING WET WEATHER AND CLOUD COVER. COOLER  
THAN AVERAGE TEMPERATURES ARE ALSO EXPECTED TO PERSIST LARGE  
PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN U.S. FROM THE LOWER LAKES, THROUGH THE  
APPALACHIANS, MID-ATLANTIC AND SOUTHEAST.
