Midwest and Plains Brace for Multiday Flood Threat as Heat Dome Retreats
A significant weather shift is expected across the Plains and Midwest as a heat dome retreats, paving the way for a multiday flood threat. Starting Thursday, heavy rain is anticipated, with some areas potentially receiving over 3 inches of rainfall by the end of the week. This change is driven by a robust disturbance moving along the northern and eastern edges of the heat dome, bringing repeated thunderstorms. The affected areas include eastern South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas, and Missouri. The storms are expected to tap into high moisture levels, leading to potential flash flooding. The shift in weather patterns is expected to provide relief from the extreme heat that has been affecting the region.
