Summer-like heat forecast to move across the US: How hot will it get?

Yahoo10-05-2025

A wave of summer-like heat is headed east across the United States and is set to heat up the Midwest and northern Plains over the next several days, including Mother's Day Sunday, forecasters said.
The heat starts in the West, where "significant temperature anomalies" are bringing high heat on May 10. Forecasters said some parts of Southern California could reach triple digits. As the holiday weekend progresses, the heat will shift into the upper Midwest, with 90-degree and higher temperatures forecasted in the Dakotas and Minnesota, the National Weather Service said.
Then the high temperatures are heading into the Northern Plains, where they could approach 30 degrees above normal on May 11, the weather service said.
Maps from the weather service also show the heat moving eastward, and by Friday, May 16, highs in the 80s and 90s could stretch from Texas to New York.
But first, unusually cold temperatures are confounding the national temperature forecast with 10 to 15 degrees below normal seen across the South and Northeast, the weather service said May 10. Showers and thunderstorms in the Southeast will also last through the weekend.
'Storms and heat could impact outdoor plans for Mother's Day for millions of families this weekend. It's going to be downright hot in the Upper Midwest,' AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said. 'We're forecasting a soggy and stormy Mother's Day weekend across much of the Southeast. Downpours and thunderstorms could spoil cookouts and picnics.'

The last full moon of the spring will soon peak over Kansas. When to look for it

The last full moon of the spring will peak soon above Kansas, and the forecast calls for clear skies at least one of the days the moon will appear full. The 'strawberry' moon will peak overnight Wednesday, June 11, and will appear full the day before and the day after. The moon marks the peak of strawberry harvest season, and the name is attributed to the Algonquian, Ojibwe, Dakota and Lakota peoples, according to The Old Farmer's Almanac. The name does not refer to a pink or red colored appearance of the moon. More names for June's full moon include blooming moon (attributed to the Anishinaabe), green corn moon (Cherokee), hoer moon (Western Abenaki), birth moon (Tlingit), egg laying moon (Cree), hatching moon (Cree), honey moon (European) and mead moon (European). Last year's strawberry moon coincided with the summer solstice, which is Friday, June 20 this year. Meteorological summer, however, began June 1, and Wichita has already begun seeing warmer temperatures. Here's when to see this year's strawberry moon over Kansas, plus when to catch more full moons in 2025. The strawberry moon will be full at 2:44 a.m. Central Daylight Time June 11, according to the Farmers' Almanac. AccuWeather reports the nighttime forecast for June 11 calls for 'partly cloudy and humid' skies in Wichita. The full moon generally appears full the day before and after its peak. The night of June 10 will be clear in Wichita, AccuWeather forecasts, and the night of June 12 will be cloudy with possible thunderstorms. The moon will rise in Wichita at 9:48 p.m. June 11, according to online clock Time and Date. After the flower moon, stargazers will have six more opportunities to see a full moon this year. Here's when to look, from Thursday, July 10: Buck moon Saturday, Aug. 9: Sturgeon moon Sunday, Sept. 7: Corn moon Monday, Oct. 6: Hunter's moon (supermoon) Wednesday, Nov. 5: Beaver moon (supermoon) Thursday, Dec. 4: Cold moon (supermoon) The Kansas Astronomical Observers will hold a monthly meeting from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. Saturday, June 21, outside Lake Afton Public Observatory. A star party will follow the announcements and discussion, weather-permitting.

NOAA Weather Radio down for a couple of days. Here's how to keep on top of Central Texas weather

AUSTIN (KXAN) — It acts like a radio station, but it doesn't play music. Instead, NOAA Weather Radio dispenses daily weather information including current conditions, local forecasts and weather synopses. It also sends out weather alerts in the event of a storm. From now through Wednesday the NOAA Weather Radio serving the Austin/San Antonio area will be off the air because it's doing a software update to the Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System, or AWIPS. This will happen from June 9-11, and people can stay weather-aware during this time is to keep up with KXAN. AWIPS is used by meteorologists at the National Weather Service to communicate and display meteorological data that assists forecasters to make accurate predictions of the weather and to dispense rapid warnings. The updates being done early this week are to fix those pesky bugs that sometimes affect computers, add new features, and infrastructure improvements that allow the system to do those accurate forecasts. Why you should get a weather radio So, how can you still get those reliable messages from the National Weather Service? Forecast operations will be handled during these three days by the Corpus Christi National Weather Service office. This is being done to minimize any possible service interruptions. More importantly, it won't affect how you get important weather information from the KXAN First Warning Weather Team. There are no interruptions that affect how we impart weather information to you. You can still rely on our team of meteorologists to give you accurate forecasts and any advisories, watches and/or warnings during these times since we are expecting a few days of showers and thunderstorms. And, as always, our KXAN Weather App is always a source of weather information should you need it during times when are not doing on-air weathercasts. It and include hourly and 7-day forecasts, plus radar and links to other weather resources on our site. The Austin/San Antonio weather service office itself will remain open and staffed so they will continue taking partner and public phone calls and perform any additional functions that can be completed without AWIPS.
