Flood Watches, Heat Advisories Hit Maryland, Pennsylvania, Texas

Several regions across the United States are experiencing a combination of heavy rainfall, flash flooding, and extreme heat due to interacting weather systems including tropical remnants and frontal boundaries. Central El Paso and Ruidoso have faced severe flooding, with rivers rising dramatically and evacuation emergencies activated, while a high-pressure system is expected to bring extreme heat later in the week. In Pennsylvania's York County, a flood watch remains in effect amid slow-moving thunderstorms capable of producing flash flooding and continued periods of rain through Friday. Maryland is also under a flood watch following Tropical Storm Chantal remnants, with heavy rain and damaging winds forecasted, raising concerns about flash flooding in urban and low-lying areas. New Jersey counties face similar conditions, with heat advisories and flood watches issued as storms bringing heavy rainfall and the potential for flash flooding are expected into Tuesday night. Across these regions, authorities urge residents to take precautions against heat illnesses and flooding while monitoring rapidly changing weather conditions.
