Redmond, WA Traffic and Road Conditions

Expect strong to severe thunderstorms with heavy rain moving slowly from the lower Great Lakes to the Mid-Atlantic during the Labor Day weekend. This could affect travelers on the I-90, I-95, and I-70. Starting today through Saturday, areas particularly in the southern Mid-Atlantic will experience the most severe weather conditions. Please plan for possible delays and drive with caution. Monsoonal moisture expected over Arizona and New Mexico will bring scattered thunderstorms with heavy rain, particularly affecting the I-40 and I-10 corridors. This could lead to flash flooding, especially in urban areas and near dry washes and burn scars. Drive safely and look out for water on the roads. The central U.S. and areas east of the Rockies, including sections of the I-35 and I-55 from the South-Central Plains to the Mid-Atlantic, are experiencing intense heat. Temperatures will soar into the 90s and 100s with heat index warnings in place. Travelers should stay hydrated and ensure vehicle cooling systems are in good working order. Cooler and unsettled weather is expected in the Northwest, with the potential for thunderstorms and rain affecting highways like the I-5 and U.S. Route 101. Conditions could lead to localized flooding, so be prepared for possible road closures or delays, especially into early Sunday.
