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.

Excessive Heat Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 3:40 PM EDT on May 26, 2012

... Excessive heat watch in effect from Monday afternoon through
Tuesday evening...

The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has issued an
excessive heat watch... which is in effect from Monday afternoon
through Tuesday evening.

* Heat index values... persistence of expected heat index values in
the mid 90s during the afternoon hours both Monday and Tuesday
has prompted the issuance of this watch. These values will be
about 5 degrees warmer than experienced of this Saturday
afternoon.

* Impacts... the first of the season long term muggy spell will
probably maximize its threatening conditions between 1 PM and 5 PM
both Monday and Tuesday. It may remain quite warm even until
sunset. Any thunderstorms may deliver temporary relief from the
forecast heat and humidity.

* Outlook... high humidity will continue into Wednesday but
temperatures should be slightly cooler because of considerable
cloudiness associated with an approaching cool front and
northward moving low pressure.


Precautionary/preparedness
actions...

An excessive heat watch means that a prolonged period of hot
temperatures is expected. The combination of hot temperatures and
high humidity will combine to create a dangerous situation in
which heat illnesses are possible. Drink plenty of fluids... stay
in an air-conditioned room... stay out of the sun... and check up
on relatives and neighbors.
