Flooding downpours, severe thunderstorms to mitigate heat in East Heavy rain from Chantal, followed by slow-moving fronts, will bring the risk of torrential rainfall and flash flooding to parts of the eastern U.S. this week. Even after flooding downpours associated with Chantal, now a tropical rainstorm, exit the Atlantic coast, additional ripples in the atmosphere will produce more pop-up showers and severe thunderstorms in the East, which will tend to regulate the heat but continue the flash flood risk.
