High pres- sure over the ocean will exert enough influence to keep rain away in most places from Florida to Maine. A storm system from the Central states will finally begin to pick up speed. A swath of showers and thunderstorms is forecast to extend from the Great Lakes region and western slopes of the Appalachians to the western Gulf Coast and Texas. The storms from the lower Mississippi Valley to Texas can be heavy enough to cause flooding and localized severe weather.

Baldor and Adam Schreck The Associated Press RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA With fresh friction wear- ing on an old alliance, President Barack Obama pressed Saudi Arabia and Persian Gulf nations on Wednesday to step up ef- forts to defeat the Islamic State group and help re- build war-torn Iraq. Obama huddled privately with Saudi King Salman at Erga Palace as Defense Sec- retary Ash Carter appealed to other Gulf nations for more economic and politi- cal support for Iraq, echo- ing themes Obama planned to emphasize personally in talks with Gulf leaders at a regional summit. In ad- dition to Saudi Arabia, Ku- wait, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Oman and Qatar are participating. The president's visit came at a difficult time for such requests. U.S. rela- tions with Gulf allies, par- ticularly Saudi Arabia, are under new strains due to differences over Iran, the conflicts in Syria and Ye- men, and Obama's public complaints that allies not carrying their weight. Carter asked the Gulf countries to help with the reconstruction of the cities of Ramadi and Hit as well as Anbar province, areas that have been won back from IS militants but were left in near-shambles. He said helping the Iraqi peo- ple go home and rebuild their lives would lead to a more lasting victory and promote a more inclusive government. "What we would like, and what we discussed to- day, is to do more," Carter said at Diriyah Palace. A senior defense offi- cial said the defense chiefs had a robust discussion, but came to no solid agree- ments on the increased aid. Still, the Gulf nations ap- pear to be willing to con- sider doing more, said the official, who briefed report- ers but was not authorized to be quoted by name. Before ramping up assis- tance, Sunni leaders have been waiting to see more political improvements in Baghdad, where a politi- cal crisis has complicated efforts to focus on IS, and for greater participation and aid for the Sunni pop- ulation. The U.S. has been unsat- isfied with what the Gulf nations have been willing to do in the fight, both with their military forces and fi- nancial contributions. In recent comments to The Atlantic magazine, Obama described Gulf countries, among others, as "free rid- ers" that show "an unwill- ingness to put any skin in the game" regarding their own regional security. The Saudis in particular have bristled at Obama's suggestion that they "share the neighborhood" with Iran, which they see as their foe. A senior Obama administration official said the president's views on Iran were the subject of ex- tended conversation in the meeting, with the president reiterating that he believes it's in the region's interests to lower tensions between Iran and Saudi Arabia. The leaders also dis- cussed human rights, the official said, in a meeting that lasted longer than the White House expected. Still, there were signs of a less-than-enthusiastic welcome for Obama as he arrived in Saudi Arabia. Stepping off of Air Force One at King Khalid Inter- national Airport, Obama was greeted not by King Salman but by a lower- ranking royal, Prince Faisal bin Bandar Al Saud, the governor of Riyadh. Ahead of Obama's arrival, Saudi state television showed the king personally greeting senior officials from other Gulf nations arriving at the King Salman Air Base. Mustafa Alani, a secu- rity analyst at the Gulf Research Center, said the move was unusual and in- tended to send a clear mes- sage that they have little faith in him. "The Saudis had dis- agreements with previ- ous presidents," Alani said. "Here you have deep dis- trust that the president won't deliver anything." Obama arrived a day af- ter telling CBS News that his administration was re- viewing the release of a 28- page section of the congres- sional report on the Sept. 11 attacks that some believe implicate Saudi Arabia in the planning, a charge the kingdom denies. The atten- tion in the U.S. on the with- held pages comes as Con- gress debates legislation that would allow the fam- ilies to sue Saudi Arabia. The Obama administra- tion says it opposes the bill, and officials said the issue didn't come up in Obama's meeting with King Salman. Obama ended his day with a late meeting with Abu Dhabi's crown prince, Sheikh Mohammed bin Za- yed Al Nahyan. The White House said in a statement that the leaders discussed the Islamic State campaign and "the importance of sta- bilizing areas of Iraq liber- ated from ISIL."
