Some of these storms could produce heavy rain and lead to flash flooding with the best area being the central Plains. Ahead of this storm, hot and humid air will build across the mid-Atlantic and Interstate-95 corridor. Spotty thunderstorms will develop across the Southeast and the Four Corner regions. Sunshine will fuel a hot afternoon across much of California while the Northwest remains seasonable.

The 80-year-old leader's comments in recent meet- ings have unleashed a swirl of questions. If he is serious, who would succeed him? If he's not, what's his agenda? And would any of it bring the Palestinians closer to statehood as Washington and the rest of the world now appear transfixed by the ongoing war against the Islamic State group, the Ira- nian nuclear deal and the refugee crisis of the Syrian civil war? Here is a look at what is shaping up to be a tem- pestuous fall in Palestinian politics. Abbas, widely known as Abu Mazen, holds three top positions — head of the Pal- estine Liberation Organi- zation, leader of the Fatah party and president of the Palestinian Authority, the West Bank-based autonomy government. Formally, the PLO chief is the most important, but actual power rests with the authority's presidency. Abbas told the PLO Exec- utive Committee last week that he won't seek PLO and Fatah leadership positions in upcoming internal elec- tions. "Now the question is whether he really means it," said Hanan Ashrawi, an Executive Committee mem- ber. "I'm afraid the only per- son who really knows is Abu Mazen." The PLO parliament, called Palestinian National Council, was initially set to meet in Ramallah on Sept. 14-15 to elect a new Execu- tive Committee. The group is seen as the pool from which his successor could emerge. However, in a sign of growing disarray, the cur- rent Executive Committee met Monday and decided at the last minute to post- pone the parliament ses- sion, two officials said. The parliament is now to meet sometime before the end of the year — a delay that could weaken Abbas' threats about stepping aside soon. Driving Abbas is the deep sense of frustration. He was elected a decade ago on a promise to de- liver Palestinian statehood through negotiations with Israel. Hopes were dashed after Benjamin Netanyahu became Israel's prime min- ister in 2009 and rejected the internationally backed premise that such a state should arise, with some modifications, in the war- won West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem. A mediation mission by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry collapsed in 2014, and the U.S. appears to show lit- tle interest in reviving peace efforts amid the Iranian nuclear deal and the war against the Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq. Abbas' attempts to rec- oncile with Hamas repeat- edly have ended in failure. His alternative strategies of recent years— seeking rec- ognition of a state of Pales- tine at the United Nations and pressing war crimes charges in the International Criminal Court — have yielded only partial results. Leading figures in the PLO and in Fatah fall into two camps — those who take Abbas' resignation threats seriously and those who don't. The skeptics contend that Abbas called internal elec- tions to get rid of critics and shore up the positions of loyalists. They say Abbas has fo- cused energies on going after those he believes are conspiring against him, al- legedly with financial back- ing from the United Arab Emirates, including the PLO's No. 2 official Yasser Abed Rabbo, former Prime Minister Salam Fayyad and an exiled former top aide, Mohammed Dahlan.
