00:00If you're traveling for Labor Day weekend, there are a few weather trouble spots to watch.
00:04The biggest story will be the heat across the central U.S.
00:07where a heat dome will send temperatures into the 90s and low 100s.
00:11Around that heat, showers and thunderstorms could cause travel delays from parts of the west into the Midwest and southeast
00:17with locally heavy rain and flash flooding possible.
00:20The northeast gets a break from the heat, but a few passing showers or thunderstorms could interrupt outdoor plans.
00:25And it could be a busy and expensive weekend to travel.
00:29AAA booking data shows domestic round-trip airfare averaging about $750, with hotel rates up 9% from last year.
00:38AAA says some of the worst traffic is expected Friday afternoon and evening.
00:43So whether you're driving or flying, give yourself some extra time and keep an eye on the forecast before you
00:48head out.
