Dangerous and extreme heat will persist across the Southwest U.S. through tomorrow, before slowly migrating eastward across the central Plains and southeastern U.S. by this weekend. Monsoonal showers will help bring some relief from extreme temperatures across portions of the Desert Southwest.

A series of fronts will linger showers and storms in the central and eastern portions of the U.S. through mid-week. Out West, dangerous heat and fire weather concerns continue, with some monsoonal rains likely across portions of the Desert Southwest. For the latest: www.weather.gov/

Extreme heat continues across the Southwest. Temps may top 120. The heat may expand across the West and south-central US into mid-month. Air quality alerts & red flag warnings are also in place across portions of the West. Exposure to both smoke & heat can be a greater health risk than either alone.

Compounding Hazards: Heat and Wildfires. Exposure to both smoke and extreme heat at the same time can pose a much greater health risk than either one alone. Heat and Smoke Safety Tips: (1) stay indoors: remain in cool, filtered air; (2) limit activity: plan necessary tasks for cooler, cleaner times; (3) hydrate: drink water frequently; (4) mask up: use a well-fitting N95 outdoors; (5) monitor health: if feeling unwell, move indoors and seek help.

🚨 Flash flooding is increasingly likely tomorrow across parts of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. The National Water Center has issued Key Messages for potentially significant flash flooding impacts. Be sure to have multiple ways of receiving warnings and never drive through flooded roadways!

Key Messages for the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast Significant Flash Flooding Impacts Possible Significant Flash Flooding Threat across portions of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast Heavy rainfall has the potential to produce significant flash flood impacts to the region, especially in urban areas. Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms will bring 2 to 4 inches, with locally up to 6 inches, of rain Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Intense rainfall rates up to 2 inches per hour will be possible. Timing Flash and urban flooding could start as early as midday Tuesday across the region, with the greatest risk of significant flooding across northern New Jersey, southern New York, and western Connecticut Tuesday night. Plan Ahead Avoid travel and recreation in vulnerable areas. Be especially cautious at night. If flooding is encountered while driving; turn around, don't drown.

Fausto is expected to continue weakening as it approaches the Hawaiian Islands this week. Although the current forecast indicates that the strongest winds and heaviest rainfall will remain north of the islands, interests across Hawaii should continue to monitor the progress of Fausto.

National Hurricane Center 5-day forecast cone for Hurricane Fausto, issued 5:00 AM HST Monday, July 27, 2026. At issuance, Fausto is centered near 20.7°N, 146.2°W with maximum sustained winds of 80 mph, moving west-northwest at 14 mph. The forecast keeps Fausto over the open eastern Pacific, well south of the Hawaiian Islands, while steadily weakening. Fausto is forecast to weaken from a hurricane to a tropical storm by Tuesday, then continue weakening, becoming a tropical depression by Thursday as it approaches the waters southwest of Hawaii. The forecast cone widens toward the west, reflecting increasing uncertainty in the storm's future track. No coastal watches or warnings are in effect for Hawaii.National Hurricane Center map showing the probability of tropical-storm-force winds (39 mph or greater) during the 120-hour period from 2:00 AM HST Monday, July 27, through 2:00 AM HST Saturday, August 1, 2026, associated with Hurricane Fausto. The highest probabilities (80–90%) are concentrated near and just west of the storm's current location over the open eastern Pacific. Probabilities decrease westward along the forecast track toward Hawaii, with successively lower bands of 70%, 60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, 20%, 10%, and 5% extending to areas south of the Hawaiian Islands. Hawaii remains outside the higher probability zones, with only low probabilities reaching waters well south of the island chain. A white circle marks Fausto's current center.

💨High winds can turn everyday objects into dangerous flying objects. Even on a clear day, secure your gear and stay alert. If it isn't tied down, it could be headed for the end zone! Stay weather aware—check the latest forecast at weather.gov.

High Winds during outdoor events: Even on a clear day, strong winds can be dangerous. Objects that are not secured can be rolled or tossed. Secure or store loose items. Be alert for flying debris.
