Warm Temperatures in the Eastern U.S. with Thunderstorms from the Midwest to ArkLaTex Region

Halloween will be reminiscent of summer in the East, with temperatures 20-30 degrees above normal. A cold front sweeping through the central U.S. will usher in more seasonable temperatures along with isolated severe thunderstorms in parts of the Midwest and Mississippi River Valley. The Northwest U.S. will remain unsettled with rain and heavy mountain snow. Read More >

Rainfall Amounts from October 08-09 2016

 

Here are the storm total rainfall from October 8-9 2016 across the area. The combination of the tropical moisture from Hurricane Matthew, combined with a cold front moving across the middle Atlantic, allowed for the heaviest rain to fall from North Carolina through Southeast Virginia. Some locations across the Tidewater of VA received more than 10 inches of rain for the storm total. This created considerable flooding across the region with many roads becoming impassible and some even washe out.
