Chicago, IL – The National Weather Service predicts cooler temperatures and thunderstorms for the upcoming Labor Day weekend across much of the U.S.
The North-Central to Eastern regions can expect a significant temperature drop behind a cold front, with highs falling into the 70s and 80s. According to the Weather Prediction Center, this shift will bring relief from the recent heat.
In the South, however, rain and thunderstorms will accompany a slow-moving cold front. The Central to Eastern Gulf Coast should prepare for these weather patterns, fueled by a weak low-pressure system and tropical moisture. Highs will stay seasonable, ranging from the upper 80s to mid-90s.
Meanwhile, the Western U.S. will see dry conditions, with coastal temperatures below normal but above-average inland. As Labor Day approaches, weather patterns may affect travel and outdoor plans, so stay informed and plan accordingly. The Weather Service advises that these conditions may change, so monitor updates for any shifts in the forecast.
