Beryl to bring heavy rain and flooding from the Lower Arkansas River
Valley, northeast into the Middle Mississippi Valley, Lower Ohio Valley
and Lower Great Lakes...
...Record high temperatures to continue into mid week across large

Beryl is expected to move steadily northeastward from eastern Texas Monday
afternoon, across Arkansas on Tuesday, into the Lower Ohio Valley Tuesday
night and into the Lower Great Lakes on Wednesday. While the wind speeds
associated with Beryl will continue to weaken as it moves farther from the
Gulf of Mexico, the storm will continue to be a prolific heavy rain
producer as it pushes northeastward. Widespread heavy rains are likely
along and to the northeast of the path of Beryl over the next two days
with rainfall totals of 2-5" from far northeast Texas, across large
section of Arkansas, southeast Missouri, central to southern Illinois,
Indiana, far northwest Ohio into the southern portions of the L.P. of
Michigan. These amounts are on top of the 5 to 10+ inches of rains that
fallen along the path of Beryl as it pushed inland earlier Monday along
the central Texas Gulf Coast. Flood watches are currently in effect along
the path of Beryl from eastern Texas, northeastward into southern
Illinois, affecting over 15 million people.
No let up expected to the string of record high temperatures being set
across large portions of the West coast. The mid to upper level high that
has been anchoring the record western record heat is not expected to
change much over the next several days, as it remains in place, stretching
from Southern California/Desert Southwest, northward through the Great
Basin and across the Pacific Northwest and Northern Rockies. Excessive
heat warnings, watches, and heat advisories are currently in effect for
nearly all of Washington State, Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada and
southwest Arizona. Numerous record high temperatures are expected across
these areas over the next few days where high temperatures will be
anywhere from 10 to as high as 30 degrees above average. In addition to
the record high daily temperatures, the early morning lows are also
expected to set records across large portions of the West over the next
two mornings. Much above average temperatures also likely to remain in
place along much of the east over the next few days. While there is not
forecast to be many record high temperatures across the East over the next
few days, numerous record high minimum temperatures are likely from the
eastern Gulf coast, through the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic and into southern
New England. Heat advisories are currently in effect across large
portions of the South, Southeast, Mid-Atlantic and southern New England
with this likely to continue o
