Following a very active day for severe weather, the storm and flooding threat through Friday extends from the Central Plains to the Mid-Mississippi River Valley. 

While hot temperatures continue for many across the East, cooler air pushing into the Northern Plains will spread into the Great Lakes and the East as the weekend progresses.
