Tropical Weather: Tropical Depression Alberto (North Atlantic) Tropical Depression Two-E (East Pacific) Tropical Storm Sanvu (Western Pacific)
Weather Summary
Weather Underground Forecast for Tuesday, May 22, 2012.

Tropical Storm Alberto is expected to weaken to tropical depression strength on Tuesday as it accelerates northeastward through the western Atlantic Ocean. This system is expected to continue on a northeastward track through Wednesday and dissipate by Thursday. For more information on Tropical Storm Alberto and other tropical activity, please visit http://www.wunderground.com/tropical.

Meanwhile, a cold front pushing across the Eastern Valleys will reach the Eastern Seaboard with more unsettled weather activity. The front will stir up scattered showers and thunderstorms from portions of the Lower Great Lakes and Northeast southward into the Southeast and Central Gulf Coast states through the day. Areas along the Gulf Coast and across much of Florida and Texas will remain hot on Tuesday as daytime highs reach into the upper 80s and 90s.

To the west of this activity, a cold front will cross the Northwest, bringing rain showers with afternoon and evening thunderstorms to parts of the Northern Intermountain West and Northern Rockies. This frontal system will merge with another disturbance dropping out of southern Canada as it progresses eastward. Expect thunderstorm activity to spread into the Northern Plains ahead of this system. Storms in this region may turn severe with very large hail and damaging wind gusts. Meanwhile, a stronger front from the Pacific will reach the Pacific Northwest with a cooler airmass and precipitation.

Elsewhere in the West, temperatures across the Desert Southwest will climb into the 100 to near 110 degree range on Tuesday.

Areal Flood Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 10:31 AM AKDT on May 21, 2012

... Flood Advisory in effect from 1026 am akdt to 1030 am akdt
Wednesday for the Kobuk river at Kobuk...

The National Weather Service in Fairbanks has issued a

* Flood Advisory for ice jam flooding in Kobuk

* until 1030 am akdt Wednesday

* the ice broke up at Kobuk Sunday afternoon and has apparently
jammed downriver of the Village. Water levels rose to about 2
feet above flood stage. At this time villagers must travel within
town via boats. Water levels have held relatively steady
overnight. No homes are currently affected by flood waters. Most
of the ice in the Kobuk river has moved downstream so there are no
ice chunks moving through the Village.

* Residents of Kobuk should take precautions to protect life and
property. Water levels can rise very quickly when an ice jam
persists downstream of a community. If water levels rise an
additional 2 feet then homes will start to be affected by flood
waters. Do not drive into flooded roadways.
