After a rather active week in terms of severe weather, another wave of storms is projected to develop from the Dakotas to Wisconsin on Sunday. Over the last week, areas from the Plains to the Ohio Valley have turned into a hotbed for severe weather, and AccuWeather forecasters are once again putting locations across the Midwest on alert for robust thunderstorms this weekend.

The weekend which is the last weekend before the Labor Day holiday weekend (which is next weekend) is a reminder that summer is winding down so we should take advantage of the nice weather while we have it. This past week has been one of low humidity and cool temperatures. We will be slowly losing both of those this weekend but it will still be rather nice. Today is a day of lots of sunshine and high temperatures will reach into the lower 80s in most locations. Humidity levels are reasonable and should remain so today with dew points in the mid to upper 50s. No rain is forecast anywhere and radars are in silent mode.

With out-of-region games and inter-conference matchups, and even an old rivalry or two, Week 1 of the high school football season in Northern Kentucky is often as interesting and attractive as any all season. The 15 games for all 21 teams this weekend make that clear.

According to Newsweek, The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued flash flood warnings for regions within the Four Corners area as monsoonal thunderstorms intensify. The warnings apply to portions of southwestern Colorado, northwestern New Mexico, southeastern Utah, and northeastern Arizona, where heavy rainfall is anticipated through Friday.

  A tropical storm is expected to deliver strong winds and heavy rain to Hawaii this weekend, particularly to the Big Island and Maui, as it passes south of the island chain. The August storm has evoked memories of the powerful hurricane south of Hawaii that helped fuel a deadly wildfire that destroyed Maui's Lahaina town last summer, but the National Weather Service said Thursday that Tropical Storm Hone was not creating the same conditions. Separately, to Hone's east, Hurricane Gilma was moving west across the Pacific, but it was too early to tell whether it would affect the...
