Flash Flood Watch from Texas to the Midwest
Commuters and travelers heading through I-35 in Texas, be cautious on Thursday. Weather systems are bringing heavy rain and potential flash flooding. Areas along I-70 through Missouri and Illinois may also experience delays due to adverse conditions. Plan for extra travel time across these routes as rain showers are expected to be persistent.
Thunderstorms from Mid-Mississippi to Ohio Valley
Expect severe thunderstorms along the I-55 corridor in the Mid-Mississippi region, affecting routes through Illinois, and Missouri on Thursday. The Ohio Valley could see storms around I-71 and I-75, with potential impacts on traffic due to high winds and hail. Keep an eye out for updates as conditions could change quickly.
Mid-Atlantic Showers to End the Week
Friday may bring thunderstorms across the Mid-Atlantic, affecting travelers on I-95 from Virginia through to Maryland. Drivers should prepare for possible delays and reduced visibility during peak hours. As these storms may linger, it's smart to plan afternoon and evening travel with caution.
