The Midwest and Great Lakes – regions that have already been pounded by thunderstorms this week – are facing a renewed threat of severe weather Friday. The worst storms will likely be concentrated in an area that includes large cities such as Des Moines, Iowa; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Chicago, Illinois; Detroit, Michigan; and Cleveland, Ohio.
Heat alerts continue Friday for millions of people across large swaths of the country. Major cities in the Northeast are expecting triple-digit feels-like temperatures. Heat indices in the Midwest will be near 110 degrees in some places.
Parts of Florida have been under heat alerts for weeks, but a bunch of tropical moisture funneling into the state through the weekend is bringing some relief. In some places, the rain is falling at a rate that is raising concerns about flooding.
The FOX Forecast Center continues to monitor a tropical disturbance in the Atlantic Ocean, which is days away from its prime development zone.
