Excessive Rainfall Possible This Weekend; October Heat Wave in California

A slow moving front will be the focus area for heavy to excessive rainfall and a threat for flash/urban flooding across the northern Gulf Coast and Southeast U.S. through this weekend. Abnormally hot, potentially record-breaking, temperatures will impact southern California and stretch north toward the Bay Area and Central Valley into next week. Read More >

 

We've had multiple reports of funnel clouds associated some showers and weak thunderstorms early this afternoon. These will be possible across south central and southeast Wisconsin through early evening.

Typically, these funnel clouds stay at the base of the cloud and do not come in contact with the ground. However, if they do approach the ground, seek shelter immediately.

 

We would like to hear about any funnel clouds you might observe. Please send any reports to the NWS at weather.gov/mkx/reports. Also send us pictures via Facebook, Twitter, or email: w-mkx.webmaster@noaa.gov.
