How The Slowing Of Atlantic Current Could Reshape World

If you are traveling the next few days, you could experience some weather-induced travel delays in some spots.

First, an ongoing active weather pattern could cause severe thunderstorms to erupt in the central U.S. each afternoon and evening through Tuesday. That could lead to thunderstorm delays at some central U.S. airports including Dallas, St. Louis, Little Rock and Chicago. It could also lead to flash flooding and heavy downpours, so slow down or consider delaying your trip if you plan to drive in those areas.

The active weather will shift to the Eastern and Southern U.S. by Tuesday, stretching from the Gulf Coast to the mid-Atlantic and Northeast by Wednesday.

Rainfall and even some wintry mix will linger in New England Thursday and Friday. The South will see more rainfall expand from the Southern Plains Thursday to the Southeast by Friday.

The West will see scattered lower elevation rain and mountain snow largely wrap up by Tuesday.

Keep in mind that the trees and grasses are in full swing in many areas, as well. Pollen sufferers will want to account for that in any outdoor plans. You can see how far north the pollen has gotten in maps at the end of this article.
