Tropical Weather: Post-Tropical Cyclone Alberto (North Atlantic) Tropical Storm Bud (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.

Subject: revision of excessive heat criteria for southeast
          Mississippi... southwest and south central Alabama... and
          the western Florida Panhandle.

In coordination with the Alabama department of public health and
surrounding National Weather Service forecast offices... the National
Weather Service in Mobile has revised the local criteria for
excessive heat products. The criteria will continue to be driven by
the heat index... which is determined by the air temperature and
relative humidity.

The revised criteria required for issuance of heat advisory and
excessive heat warning products... effective for all counties in
southeast Mississippi... southwest and south central Alabama... and
the western Florida Panhandle within the WFO Mobile area of
responsibility is as follows:

Heat advisory

    issued when the heat index is expected to rise to at least 108 f.
    Typically issued 12 to 24 hours in advance of the expected event.

Excessive heat warning

    issued when the heat index is expected to rise to at least 113 f.
    Typically issued 12 to 24 hours in advance of the expected event.
