    Daily briefing: Flash flood risk continues for Florida, Mid-Atlantic

Daily briefing
Flash flood risk continues for Florida, Mid-Atlantic

Heavy rains continue over Florida, where flash floods are possible again on Tuesday. At the same time, the Mid-Atlantic region also continues to face flash flood risks. All of this, along with today's tropical outlook, is included in the daily briefing, published every weekday at 5 a.m. ET.

Severe storms will be more likely across the Central Plains and Midwest as a low-pressure system, accompanied by a front, sweeps from northwest Canada, creating a risk for isolated severe storms in parts of Nebraska and South Dakota. Very isolated storms will also extend into northern Wisconsin.

Heavy rains as still shown on the WeatherRadar as a front tris to dissipate on Tuesday.

Flash floods continue

The Mid-Atlantic has another day with a possibility of flooding. A slight, level 2 of 4, extends from northwest Tennessee through Roanoke to the Washington D.C. area. The culprit of the heavy rains across the Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic will be a dissipating front that remains close enough to create impulses of energy, potentially producing high rainfall rates of 2 to 3 inches per hour in some areas.

The same system that we monitor for the chance of tropical storm formation (see the Tropical Update section below) is expected to dissect Florida early Tuesday and is forecast to move into the Gulf of Mexico. There will still be plenty of moisture being pulled from the Caribbean, and combined with instability, a heavy round of rains will continue to impact the Florida Peninsula. Flash floods are possible due to the ground being saturated from recent rains, and there could be an additional 2 inches of rain across Central and South Florida. Isolated spots with higher amounts can´t be ruled out.

Tropical Update

The low-pressure system moving into the Gulf has a medium chance to develop by he end of this week. The waters are warm, running at a minimum of 87°F. That´s plenty of fuel to feed the formation of the system that could be named Dexter. The general motion of this system will be west-northwest. At this point, it is impossible to know when or where it could make landfall. The northern Texas coast and Mississippi need to monitor this storm closely as the impact could be experienced quickly this week.
