1--Those are today’s top stories. Now let’s go to John for the weather. John, what does the forecast look like for our weekend travelers?
 
2--I’m afraid we’re in for a rough weekend, Mark. There is a storm system moving through the East Coast. It will be drizzling all day today, and there’s a 60 percent chance of thunderstorms this evening. It will be warm and humid all weekend. In the Midwest, expect strong winds and a low of around 40 degrees.
 
1--That’s pretty chilly for the summer! Will it rain on Saturday?
 
2--Unfortunately, yes. It will be clear early Saturday morning but there is a high chance of showers and thunderstorms later in the day. There is a severe thunderstorm warning for some parts of the Southeast. Folks in those areas might see some hail and flooding, especially in areas that have been experiencing record high rainfalls.
 
1--That certainly sounds like a dreary Saturday.
 
2--It gets better on Sunday, though. The storm systems move east and the skies will clear up at night. It will still be rather cool, with highs in the low 50s. The West Coast will be experiencing some unusually chilly weather, but at least the sun will come out. I advise weekend travelers to be careful, especially while driving. Back to you, Mark.
 
1--Thanks John, and there you have it! Looks like it’s a weekend to stay at home!

1--这些就是今天的头条故事。现在来去找约翰来看下天气。约翰，天气预报是怎样的情况？对周末的旅行者是否有影响？
2--马克，可怕我们得过一个天气很糟的周末。有个风暴正在穿越东部海岸。今天整天都会下毛毛雨，而且今晚有百分之六十的可能下雷暴雨。周末会温暖而又潮湿，在中西部，会有强风，和40度左右的低压。
1--那对夏天来说太冷了。周六会下雨吗？
2--很不幸，犹豫。周六早晨天气晴朗，但白天稍后时候很可能会有阵雨或雷暴雨。东南部的地区会有严重的雷暴雨警告。这些地区会有冰雹或洪水，尤其对于那些降雨达到历史记录的地区。
1--那听起来正是个沉闷的周六。
2--但是周日会好很多。暴风带会向东移动，晚上会放晴。但很两素昂，最高温度在50度（华氏温度）。西海岸会遭遇到异常寒冷的天气，但至少太阳会出来。我建议周末旅行的人要小心，尤其是潜水要小心。马克，继续进行你的节目。
1--谢谢，约翰。你已经听到天气状况了，看来周末你得呆在家里了。
