...Episodes of heavy rain and severe thunderstorms will be focused across
the south-central Plains between two stationary fronts...

...Record high temperatures will be challenged across portions of Texas...

A persistent weather pattern is setting up across the mid-section of the
country where a pair of frontal boundaries are forecast to be nearly
stationary through the next few days.  This pattern will allow rounds of
heavy rain and thunderstorms to develop between the two fronts and travel
from west to east to impact areas from the central High Plains across
southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma toward Missouri and the Ozarks. 
Some of the heavy rain and thunderstorms will likely lead to flooding
issues along with frequent lightning, high wind gusts, large hail, and a
few tornadoes.  Farther to the north and east, showers and thunderstorms
are expected to move across the Midwest and the Great Lakes at a steady
pace through Monday night near and ahead of a cold front.  While some of
these activities will likely be heavy, the steady eastward motion of the
front will keep the threat of flash flooding at bay for these areas.  By
Tuesday, the showers and thunderstorms are expected to reach the
Northeast, Appalachians, and the Mid-Atlantic as a frontal low pressure
wave intensifies and moves into southeastern Canada.

Elsewhere, a weakening Pacific system is will bring a period of unsettled
weather through the Pacific Northwest, the northern Rockies, followed by
the northern Plains through the next couple of days, including some
high-elevation snow near the mountain peaks.

Meanwhile, temperatures are forecast to soar well into the 100s over
central Texas for the next couple of days where daily record high
temperatures will be challenged.  Meanwhile, near normal temperatures
along the East Coast will slowly yield to increasing heat and humidity by
midweek.

Dry and breezy conditions across the southern Rockies will contribute to
an Elevated Risk of fire weather into parts of southeastern Arizona.
