Coastal Low to Track Up East Coast Sunday–Monday as Most Inland Areas Stay Fair

The strongest rain and wind are expected near the immediate Atlantic shoreline, with inland impacts generally limited.

Overview

  • Low pressure organizing off Florida is forecast to lift north Sunday into Monday, sending bands of rain and gusty winds up the Mid-Atlantic into New England.
  • Forecasters expect the heaviest rain and highest gusts along and east of I-95 and at the beaches, while inland zones such as the Susquehanna Valley see lighter totals around one-half to three-quarters of an inch.
  • Rain becomes more widespread for parts of the Northeast by early Monday, setting up a wet commute in some areas before drier, cooler air follows midweek.
  • Away from the coast, much of the Midwest stays mainly dry with only spotty, light showers Saturday and seasonable highs in the 60s from Chicago to Cleveland.
  • A pronounced warm surge arrives in the Plains on Sunday with highs in the mid to upper 80s and south wind gusts near 25–30 mph, followed by rain chances on Monday; the Gulf Coast stays sunny and dry, and Tropical Storm Jerry is tracking north over the Atlantic with little U.S. concern.
