Severe Storms in Texas Cause Flight Cancellations as Northeast Heatwave Ends
Severe weather conditions are impacting Texas and the northeastern United States. In Texas, heavy rainfall and thunderstorms have led to flash flood warnings, school closures, and significant disruptions at major airports. According to the National Weather Service, North Texas is expected to receive 1 inch of rain from Wednesday through Friday, with localized areas potentially seeing 3 to 5 inches. Meanwhile, the northeastern U.S. is experiencing the final day of a heatwave, with temperatures in New York City reaching 92°F (33°C) on Tuesday. A cold front is expected to bring severe storms to the region, dropping temperatures dramatically into the mid-60s°F (18°C). This spring's erratic weather patterns have caused significant challenges, including record-low river flows in the mid-Atlantic and southeastern regions, prompting Baltimore officials to encourage voluntary water conservation.
