Big Story Weather from May 4-5: This past weekend was very active over most of the Southeast with enormous amounts of rainfall and flooding from Alabama, Georgia and into the Carolinas. The other big story was out West were the wild fires have been burning through parts of California. An area of showers today in that region will provide some much needed relief.
Big Story Weather Discussion for May 6: That pesky high pressure over the Western Atlantic will only shift a small amount which will allow the storm system to move into the Carolinas. The Southeast will be dealing with another day of heavy rain. Expect flooding to be a key issue in this region again today. High pressure over the Northern Plains will bring nice weather to the region. A new low pressure area developing over the Southwest will bring some much needed rain to the Southwest including parts of California where wild fires have been burning.
Here is the weather for a few select cities:
New York NY: Partly cloudy today and cool with a high near 57F. Overnight lows will fall to around 45F.
