...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER PARTS OF THE  
WESTERN GULF COAST ON MONDAY, EXPANDING INTO THE CENTRAL GULF  
COAST BY TUESDAY...  
 
...DANGEROUS HEAT CONTINUES TO IMPACT PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN  
CALIFORNIA AND THE SOUTHWEST THROUGH MONDAY...  
 
...THERE ARE EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNINGS AND HEAT ADVISORIES OVER  
PARTS OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND THE SOUTHWEST...  
 
A QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT WILL LINGER ALONG THE GULF COAST THROUGH  
TUESDAY. TROPICAL MOISTURE POOLING ALONG THE BOUNDARY WILL ALSO  
CREATE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH TUESDAY. ON MONDAY, THE  
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL PRODUCE HEAVY RAIN OVER PARTS OF  
THE SOUTHERN TEXAS COAST. THEREFORE, THE WPC HAS ISSUED A SLIGHT  
RISK (LEVEL 2/4) OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER PARTS OF THE WESTERN  
GULF COAST FROM MONDAY INTO TUESDAY MORNING. THE ASSOCIATED HEAVY  
RAIN WILL CREATE MAINLY LOCALIZED AREAS OF FLASH FLOODING, WITH  
URBAN AREAS, ROADS, SMALL STREAMS, AND LOW-LYING AREAS THE MOST  
VULNERABLE.  
 
MOREOVER, ON TUESDAY, THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY  
RAIN WILL EXPAND ALONG THE WESTERN GULF COAST INTO THE CENTRAL  
GULF COAST. THEREFORE, THE WPC HAS ISSUED A SLIGHT RISK (LEVEL  
2/4) OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER PARTS OF THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL  
GULF COAST ON TUESDAY. THE ASSOCIATED HEAVY RAIN WILL CREATE  
MAINLY LOCALIZED AREAS OF FLASH FLOODING, WITH URBAN AREAS, ROADS,  
SMALL STREAMS, AND LOW-LYING AREAS THE MOST VULNERABLE.  
 
MEANWHILE, WEAK MONSOONAL MOISTURE WILL AID IN PRODUCING SHOWERS  
AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF THE GREAT BASIN AND  
CENTRAL/SOUTHERN ROCKIES FROM THE LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE LATE  
EVENING ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY. IN ADDITION, WEAK UPPER-LEVEL ENERGY  
OVER THE NORTHERN INTERMOUNTAIN REGION WILL PRODUCE SCATTERED  
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVERNIGHT SUNDAY AND OVER PARTS OF THE  
NORTHERN PLAINS/UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY OVERNIGHT MONDAY INTO  
TUESDAY.  
 
ADDITIONALLY, UPPER-LEVEL RIDGING OVER THE PARTS OF SOUTHERN  
CALIFORNIA AND THE SOUTHWEST PLAINS WILL ALLOW HIGH TEMPERATURES  
TO BE IN THE UPPER 90S AND LOW 100S, PROMPTING EXCESSIVE HEAT  
WARNINGS AND ADVISORIES OVER PARTS OF THE REGION. ADDITIONALLY,  
WITH LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 80S AND UPPER 70S, LITTLE  
RELIEF FROM THE HEAT WILL OCCUR OVERNIGHT. THEREFORE, PEOPLE  
SPENDING MORE TIME OUTDOORS OR IN A BUILDING WITHOUT COOLING IN  
AREAS WITH HEAT WARNINGS ARE STILL AT AN INCREASED RISK OF  
HEAT-RELATED ILLNESS.
