The Nation's Weather for Tuesday, August 23, 2022
_____
NATIONAL SUMMARY
The combination of a stalled front and tropical moisture
will keep heavy, flooding rainfall a threat in Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana and the eastern half of Texas. While
the rain is needed to reduce the ongoing drought in some
spots, places that have repeated rounds of rain will be at
risk for slash flooding. Additional rain and storms are
expected in the Northeast and may produce heavy rainfall in
isolated spots. Rain will also be beneficial here,
especially in New England, where many spots are within
drought criteria. Widely isolated showers and thunderstorms
are possible in the Southwest as well, but will be far less
widespread than in recent days. However, any storms can
produce heavy rainfall, which would allow water levels to
rapidly fluctuate.
