Rainfall Risks in the Southwest & Midwest - 09-11 to 09-13
Updated Fri Sep 11th 2026, 1:45pm PDT

Heavy rains are on the way for the Southwest and the Upper Mississippi Valley starting Friday, with a risk for flash flooding in urban and low-lying areas. Keep an eye out for severe thunderstorms in the Midwest, which can bring lightning, strong winds, and hail. The weather is expected to shift over the weekend, bringing rain to the Ohio Valley, Central Appalachians, and Mid-Atlantic regions, with potential flooding. Showers will also make their way to the Northern/Central Plains and Middle Mississippi Valley by Sunday.

Friday - Busy Weather Day!

Get ready for showers and thunderstorms across the Upper Mississippi Valley. Storms could bring heavy rain leading to flash floods in some places. There is a slight risk for severe thunderstorms, possibly packing strong winds, lightning, and hail. Areas to watch include Minneapolis, MN and Madison, WI. Why rain? A front is moving through, acting as a catalyst for wet weather.

Southwest Soaking

Parts of the Southwest will experience heavy rains starting Friday and into Saturday. Flash floods are a concern, especially in Phoenix, AZ and Las Vegas, NV. With burn scars in the area, be cautious as they are more prone to flooding. Rain is happening due to the moisture-laden air from the southwest.

Weekend Deluge for the East

By Saturday, showers will spread over the Ohio Valley, Central Appalachians, and Mid-Atlantic. Look out for potential flash flooding in spots like Cincinnati, OH and Charleston, WV. The cause? A front is lifting north, bringing moisture and instability. Later, this system will move into the Northeast by Sunday.

Rain Heads to the Plains

On Sunday, expect showers and thunderstorms in the Northern/Central Plains and Middle Mississippi Valley, possibly affecting Kansas City, MO and Des Moines, IA. Rain is due to another approaching front, mixing with moist air.

Southern Drizzles

Saturday will also see showers from the Southern Mid-Atlantic down to Florida and stretching west to the Middle/Lower Mississippi Valley. Areas like Atlanta, GA and New Orleans, LA might experience some rain, with embedded thunderstorms possible, especially near the Gulf Coast.
