More than 130 million people brace for sweltering conditions across most of the US
More than 130 million people across most of the United States are on alert for widespread, dangerous heat on Sunday and into the new work week, and parts of the Southeast coast could experience the brunt of the sweltering conditions. The highest temperatures on Sunday will be focused between Savannah, Georgia, and Virginia Beach, Virginia, where extreme heat warnings are in effect as heat indices -- that is, what the temperatures feel like when humidity is factored in -- are forecast to be between 108 and 116 degrees. Extreme heat is also expected to continue on Sunday in the Midwest, where temperatures will feel between 97 to 111 degrees from Lincoln, Nebraska, up into Minneapolis. Charleston, West Virginia, and St. Louis, Missouri, are in store for hot and sticky weather on Sunday, with both cities under extreme heat warnings for feels-like temperatures between 102 and 112. Elsewhere, heat advisories have been issued for Dallas, Texas; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Indianapolis, Indiana; Tampa, Florida; Little Rock, Arkansas; Kansas City, Missouri; and Washington, D.C. Heat indices in those cities are forecast to range from the 90s up to 110 degrees. Looking ahead to the work week, heat advisories are expected to be in effect on Monday and Tuesday for parts of the I-95 corridor from Boston down to New York City and are forecast to stretch into Tuesday, with heat indices expected in the mid-90s to 105 degrees. The potentially life-threatening heat and humidity are expected to continue across the eastern half of the country through Wednesday. Major cities including St. Louis, Memphis, Charlotte, Savannah, Tampa, and Jackson, Mississippi, are all likely all see actual temperatures in the upper 90s to low 100s. A prolonged heat wave is forecast for those regions as an abundance of tropical moisture settling in is expected to drive the feels-like temperatures up to between 105 to 115 degrees over multiple consecutive days. Nighttime and early mornings are not expected to provide relief from the sweltering conditions. Overnight and early morning lows are expected to fall only to the 70s or higher. Between Monday and Wednesday, large portions of the Southeast are expected to be under an extreme heat risk at a four-out-of-four level, including the cities of Atlanta, Charlotte, and Jacksonville and Tallahassee, Florida. Meanwhile, severe storms are expected to produce heavy rains in areas of the upper Midwest on Sunday. Storms that struck the region overnight continued Sunday morning, prompting severe thunderstorm watches from North Dakota to northern Minnesota, and the potential for scattered large hail and damaging winds of up to 70 mph. Later on Sunday, more severe storms are possible for parts of Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

Severe weather likely on Sunday, one or two tornadoes possible
Severe thunderstorms are likely across portions of southern Manitoba and northwestern Ontario again on Sunday as an active pattern remains in place to close out the weekend. Several rounds of thunderstorms are possible—one in the morning, followed by another in the mid-afternoon to early evening hours. One or two tornadoes are possible. Keep an eye on the radar and stay aware of watches and warnings in your area. Know where to go and what to do if a tornado warning is issued for your location. DON'T MISS: Severe weather likely on Sunday Sunday will kick off with an early-morning mesoscale convective system (MCS) expected to develop stateside. This organized line of thunderstorms will push into northwestern Ontario and head toward the Thunder Bay area. Expect this first round of storms between 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. local time. A second line of severe thunderstorms will develop and approach the area during the afternoon hours. Large hail, gusty winds, heavy rainfall, and one or two tornadoes are possible in these storms. The environment is favourable for rotating thunderstorms near the international border, including Fort Frances and Atikokan. STAY SAFE: There remains some uncertainty in the timing and coverage of the lines of storms in northwestern Ontario, as they depend on the timing of the cold front's arrival and the atmosphere's ability to destabilize itself amid the wildfire smoke over the region. Folks across southern Manitoba, including Winnipeg, could see severe thunderstorms fire up beginning Sunday afternoon as a low-pressure system moves into the region. The main hazard from this cluster of storms will be large hail and heavy rainfall. Stay with The Weather Network for all the latest on this evolving severe weather threat.
