Weather Summary
Kari Kiefer
Weather Underground midday recap for Saturday, May 26, 2012. A busy day greeted parts of the country at the start of the Memorial Day weekend. First, Subtropical Storm Beryl formed off the Carolina Coast and was expected to move slowly west-southwestward toward the northeast coast of Florida. Beryl is anticipated to make landfall late Sunday evening or early Monday with tropical storm strength winds before lingering over the area through Tuesday. Northern Florida and adjacent areas of Georgia are currently suffering through an exceptional drought, so the significant rain from Beryl will help to alleviate some of the drought.

Meanwhile, an intense heat wave gripped the Southern Plains and Southeast on Saturday. This heat wave produced temperatures well into the 90s for a wide swath the country from eastern New Mexico through Georgia. Temperatures in the 90s were also observed well north into the Central Plains and Ohio Valley. Heat index values, which tell how warm the air feels, rose above 100 degrees along the Gulf Coast where the humidity was elevated. This heat wave was expected to continue and expand Sunday, with more areas warming above 100 degrees.

While no severe weather has formed by the early afternoon, there remains a slight risk of severe weather in the Plains into the evening. This severe weather can include strong thunderstorms, large hail, strong winds, and even tornadoes. Residents in the Plains should monitor local weather conditions.

The Southern Plains and Southeast rose into the 90s and 100s, while the Northeast saw temperatures in the 70s and 80s. The Southwest rose into the 80s and 90s, while the Northwest saw temperatures in the 70s.

... Continued unseasonably cool today...

Breezy to locally windy conditions will continue until late
this evening across the higher elevations of the southern Sierra
Nevada... the Tehachapi Mountains... and High Desert of Kern County.

An abnormally cool low pressure area for this time of the year
will continue to affect the region today. This system will bring
a few more showers to the southern Sierra Nevada through this
evening. The snow level this morning will be around 6000
feet... but could be locally lower in heavier showers. Temperatures
today will be 10 to 15 degrees below normal.

Dry weather will return Sunday as the low pressure system moves
east of the region. Temperatures are expected to warm to near
normal Sunday and Memorial Day.
