Multiple rounds of showers and storms will lead to a flood threat across the Plains from the Dakotas down to Texas. Rain will keep temperatures a good 10-20 degrees below average in Sioux Falls, Omaha, Kansas City and Wichita.

Thunderstorms are currently affecting the Central Plains, with similar conditions expected to persist. The Gulf Coast and Florida are also facing increased humidity and a higher likelihood of storms, raising concerns about potential flooding in these regions. In contrast, the Northeast and areas such as Chicago are forecast to enjoy clear and pleasant weather, providing favorable conditions for outdoor events. Meanwhile, the western United States will experience slightly above-average heat, and the combination of heat and humidity in Florida may lead to additional storms.

Where rain, flooding could ruin Labor Day weekend plans

Thunderstorms in progress across the Central Plains. That will be the situation today. Otherwise, along the Gulf Coast into Florida is where we have that better chance of humidity and also the storms. You've got beautiful weather, though, from the Northeast, right on back toward Millennium Park in Chicago for your Jazz Festival. Here's a look at your Sunday travel. Still right in the middle is where we've got the problems. We've got the heat still slightly above average in the West. Heat and humidity, though, that's going to lead to some storms in places like Orlando down towards Miami Northeast. Still looking fantastic.
