Weather Summary
Weather Underground Forecast for Friday, May 25, 2012.

Expect more active weather to develop across the Great Lakes on Friday, as a low pressure system moves from the Upper Midwest into eastern Canada. This system will push a cold front over the Great Lakes and Midwest, producing scattered showers and thunderstorms throughout the day. There is a slight chance that some of these storms will turn severe with strong winds and large hail. Rainfall totals will range from 1 to 2 inches, with over 2 inches likely in areas of severe weather development.

Behind this activity in the West, a low pressure system will move over the Great Basin and into the Southern Rockies. Flow around this system will produce cooler temperatures across the West, while also triggering scattered showers over the Pacific Northwest, northern California, and Intermountain West. Snow showers may develop again across the highest elevations of the Northern Rockies.

Meanwhile in the East, high pressure builds from the Plains, over the Mississippi River Valley, and into the Eastern US. This will keep moisture away to the north, allowing for dry, sunny, and warm conditions. High temperatures will range in the 80s and 90s from the Central Plains through the Eastern Valleys, with parts of the Southern US reaching into the lower 100s.

High Wind Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 12:21 PM MDT on May 25, 2012

... High wind watch remains in effect from Saturday afternoon
through Saturday evening...

* timing... winds will be increasing by mid morning and could
reach warning criteria in the afternoon... decreasing around
sunset.

* Winds... south winds of 35 to 45 mph with gusts to 60 mph
possible.

* Impacts... these strong winds could create dangerous driving
conditions especially for high profile vehicles along east to
west oriented roads. Blowing dust will also be a possibility.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Remember... a high wind watch means that strong and potentially
damaging winds may occur. Persons in the watch area should
remain alert to the possibility of high winds and be prepared to
take action should high winds develop.
