Scattered Storms Bring Heavy Rain, Flooding Risks Across Southeastern US

An active weather pattern is affecting multiple regions across the U.S., with scattered to widespread showers and thunderstorms expected through the weekend and into early next week. Areas from Upper Michigan to the Southeast and the East Coast are experiencing humid conditions with the potential for heavy downpours, gusty winds, and localized flooding. Coastal low pressure systems and tropical disturbances are contributing to unsettled weather, particularly along the East Coast where rainfall totals may reach 2-3 inches or more by Sunday. Temperatures generally remain in the 80s to low 90s, with some cooler-than-average conditions noted in Savannah, Georgia. While rain chances are expected to decrease early next week, the risk for isolated storms and heavy rainfall persists through the weekend. Residents are advised to monitor forecasts and be prepared for brief but intense storms that could cause street flooding and other disruptions.
