Hi, this is meteorologist Steve Pelletier and I am the weatherman. Thanks for checking into theweathermanpodcom On your Wednesday. It is the ninth day of the month of July 2025. And typical later afternoon showers and thunderstorm threats will continue across the Tennessee Valley, central Mississippi River Valley, the southeastern states and the Gulf Coast. That's all because of a Bermuda high just off the eastern seaboard, bumping warm, moist air out of the Gulf of Mexico, afternoon sunshine and temperatures ranging into the 90s, causing thunderstorms to form. So flood watches are going to be in effect for central and northern New Jersey. Some sections of New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania yesterday had tornado warnings and even the isolated tornadoes that moved through sections of Monmouth and Ocean Counties in New Jersey, causing some wind damage and some heavy downpours. Similar situation is due for today, but more likely with the frontal system currently looking its way through the eastern Great Lakes. It's going to be a slow move to the eastern seaboard and when it does finally get here, there'll be some isolated heavy thunderstorms. So flood watches are likely on Thursday as well, from the Tennessee Valley to the mid-Atlantic, all the way up to the northeast. As that cold front does arrive, high pressure behind it Looks like it's going to be mainly moving due east from there, from Lake Superior possibly to central and southern New England, but good, close enough by to give some pretty decent weather for DC to the Boston area on Friday, saturday and Sunday, but each day with a chance of a late-day thundershower. Temperatures during the daytime today ranging up to 88 to about 93 and scattered late-day thunderstorms. A better chance of showers and thunderstorms with temperatures in the 80s tomorrow and then some improving conditions, partly sunny 80 to 85, scattered late-day thunderstorms on Friday, saturday and Sunday of the weekend Typical weather continuing right through those days.

If you're traveling today, flying into Charlotte and through Atlanta, expect delays because of heavy showers and thunderstorms during the afternoon, maybe one to three hours and possibly some cancellations depending upon the strength of those thunderstorms. We see the heaviest amounts of rain from Nashville eastward with Chattanooga and down to northern portions of Georgia near Atlanta. Northern Mississippi and Alabama as well, and a central and southern Mississippi River Valley will have some severe storms during the daytime today, so it will cause delays into those places. Also, central and south Florida, under the possibility of some tropical moisture just offshore, will have showers and thunderstorms and isolated delays into those places during the daytime today We'll have showers and thunderstorms and isolated delays into those places. During the daytime today, rainy weather in Houston and also at Dallas-Fort Worth, hot and sticky conditions and even out in Austin and San Antonio the possibility of some late-day thunderstorms with some very warm weather 90s to near 100 degrees in those places during the day. Today Looks like Chicago will have some showers and thunderstorms with a frontal system moving through, but dry in Minneapolis-St Paul, dry in LA, san Francisco with some morning fog, and also up and around the Portland area back to clouds and some rainy conditions up to Seattle and Tacoma during the afternoon and evening today and probably during the daytime tomorrow as well.
