Weather Summary
Weather Underground midday recap for Friday, May 25, 2012.

Scattered thunderstorms persisted over the Central US on Friday, as a frontal boundary draped from the Midwest through the Rockies. This was a result of two areas of low pressure. One system moved over the Upper Midwest and into eastern Canada, while another moved eastward from the Central Rockies. This allowed for a frontal boundary to extend from the Great Lakes, over the Mid-Mississippi River Valley, and into the Central Plains. Scattered showers and thunderstorms developed along this frontal boundary. Some of these storms turned severe over Iowa and Nebraska with strong winds and large hail. Rainfall totals ranged from 1 to 2 inches across the Central US, with heaviest rainfall reported in Olathe, Kansas with a mid-day total of 2.13 inches of rain.

Behind this system, a low pressure system moved over northern California and into the Great Basin. This brought scattered rain showers to the Pacific Northwest, parts of northern California, and into the Intermountain West and Great Basin. Highest elevations saw overnight and early morning snow showers due to cool temperatures associated with this airmass. The southern side of this system created strong winds for the Southwest and Southern Rockies. Due to prevailing warm and dry conditions, fire danger remained high for these areas.

Special Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 10:34 AM CDT on May 25, 2012


... Very warm temperatures expected for the upcoming Holiday weekend...

A large area of high pressure will settle across the Tennessee Valley
over the next several days setting the stage for a period of well above
normal temperatures. The average high temperature for this time of
year is generally in the lower 80s. However... in the Saturday through
Memorial Day time frame most locations will see temperatures top out
between 90 and 95 degrees. This will be the first prolonged period of
very warm temperatures for the area this year.

Since this period of hot weather is arriving rather early... and
many people will be outdoors during this Holiday weekend... now is a
good time for folks to review their heat safety rules.

Some of the most important include...

Avoid strenuous activities during the hottest part of the day.

Take plenty of breaks and get out of the sun when you can.

Drink plenty of non alcoholic fluids.

Wear loose and lightweight clothing.

Never leave children or pets unattended in cars.
