South Regional Video A stalled frontal boundary continues to be the focus for showers and thunderstorms across Florida today, and will continue to do so throughout much of the week ahead. High pressure moving from the Ohio Valley through the Mid-Atlantic over the next few days will keep an onshore wind blowing across the Florida Peninsula and the Southeast Coast, bringing a threat of dangerous rip currents, coastal flooding, and beach erosion from the Delmarva Peninsula down through Florida's East Coast for much of the week ahead. Elsewhere, dry weather is expected throughout the week ahead with near average temperatures. Highs today will range from the 50s in the Virginia and North Carolina Mountains to the 80s in South Florida and the Rio Grande Valley. Highs tomorrow will range from the 60s over much of Virginia and North Carolina to the 80s in South Florida, the Rio Grande Valley, and western Texas and Oklahoma.

West Regional Video A cutoff low that has been sitting off of the California Coast over the weekend will finally begin to open up and move today. The low, along with a surface cold front, will bring a chance of rain (and mountain snow) from Northern California to Washington today and to the Northern Rockies and Northern High Plains tomorrow. A few showers and thunderstorms are possible over the Intermountain West on Wednesday. Another upper level trough will move into the Pacific Northwest on Thursday and bring a chance of valley rain and mountain snow to the Central Rockies on Friday.
