856pm EDT Monday August 31 2026

Issued at 855pm EDT Monday August 31 2026

Convection is moving out into the gulf with areas of stratiform rain linger over land this evening. The precipitation should come to an end over land in the next couple of hours with isolated to scattered convection continuing over the coastal waters overnight. Tuesday looks like it will be similar to today with isolated showers and thunderstorms popping up along the west coast sea breeze early to mid-afternoon with the scattered to numerous convection moving from the interior to the west coast during the mid to late afternoon and evening. Main issue will once again be the potential for locally heavy rainfall that could cause flooding in urban, low lying, and poor drainage areas.

Issued at 156pm EDT Monday August 31 2026

Deep moisture in place across the area in easterly flow will allow for numerous late afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms through much of the week. Flow will become a bit more SE by the end of the week, with trough from the remnants of Dolly potentially bringing some additional tropical moisture. This deep moisture will allow for a marginal risk for flooding, generally in urban areas with the thunderstorms.
