Regional Weather Forecasts Predict Heavy Gulf Coast Rain and National Shifts
Anonymous
Forecasts call for cooler, mostly dry or sunnier conditions across much of the country through the weekend, including clear, chilly nights in West Virginia, mild weather in southeast Wisconsin, and a gradual warm-up in the Washington, D.C., region. East Texas and Louisiana are expected to stay relatively dry into the weekend, with rain chances increasing around midweek as tropical moisture, potentially linked to Hurricane Polo’s remnants, meets a cold front; some areas could get several days of heavy rain. The Dakotas, by contrast, could see showers and thunderstorms through the weekend and further unsettled weather into midweek, while strengthening easterly winds bring a moderate rip-current risk along the Alabama coast. A Psychology Today commentary argues that overdose suicides may be undercounted and calls for closer ties between addiction recovery and suicide prevention; The Spokesman-Review also profiles newsroom staff.
