Weather Summary
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.

Areal Flood Watch, Coastal Hazard Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 5:15 PM EDT on May 26, 2012

... Flood Watch in effect from Sunday afternoon through Tuesday
morning...

The National Weather Service in Jacksonville has issued a

* Flood Watch for portions of northeast Florida and southeast
Georgia.

* From Sunday afternoon through Tuesday morning

* subtropical storm Beryl will begin to impact the area Sunday
afternoon and then push ashore Sunday night and affect the
region through Tuesday.

* Total rainfall amounts will be near 3 to 6 inches... with locally
higher amounts in a few locations possible. The threat of heavy
rainfall will increase Sunday night through Tuesday morning as
Beryl slows it movement.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible
flood warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be
prepared to take action should flooding develop.







947 am EDT Sat may 26 2012

... High rip current risk in effect from 6 PM EDT this evening
through Monday afternoon...

The National Weather Service in Jacksonville has issued a high
rip current risk... which is in effect from 6 PM EDT this evening
through Monday afternoon.

* Timing... the approach of subtropical storm Beryl will result in
building swells... producing a high risk of rip currents through
Monday.

* Impacts... dangerous swimming conditions will exist in the surf
zone. Large breakers can knock you down and make you susceptible
to rip currents. Stay out of the water until conditions improve.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

There is a high risk of rip currents.

Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away
from shore... which occur most often at low spots or breaks in The
Sandbar and in the vicinity of structures such as groins...
jetties and piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards and the beach
patrol. Pay attention to flags and posted signs.

If you become caught in a rip current... do not panic. Remain calm
and begin to swim parallel to shore. Once you are away from the
force of the rip current... begin to swim back to the beach. Do
not attempt to swim directly against a rip current. Even a strong
swimmer can become exhausted quickly.






Tropical Storm Warning
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 9:14 PM EDT on May 26, 2012

... Tropical Storm Warning remains in effect...

... Precautionary/preparedness actions...
precautionary/preparedness actions...

Secure loose outdoor objects which can be blown around. Those in
flood prone areas should make preparations for the possibility of
periods of flooding rainfall Sunday through Tuesday.


... Probability of tropical storm/hurricane conditions...
the chance for hurricane conditions at this time is very small.
Also... the chance for tropical storm conditions at this time is
up to 69 percent. This represents a general upward trend since
the last forecast.

... Winds...
as subtropical storm Beryl approaches... sustained tropical storm
force winds are expected to begin by midday Sunday along the
immediate coast. Maximum winds are forecast to be in the 35 to
45 mph range with gusts around 55 mph.

Minor to moderate damage is likely to some Mobile homes...
especially those that have canopies... awnings... or carports.
Other homes may have minor roof and siding damage. Some loose
outdoor items will be tossed around and may cause additional
damage. A few power lines will be knocked down resulting in
scattered power outages. Some large branches of healthy trees
will be snapped.

... Storm surge and storm tide...
as subtropical storm Beryl approaches the coast... there is an
increasing chance for combined storm surge and astronomical tide
waters up to 3 feet above mean sea level within areas closer to
the coast... resulting in worst case flood inundation of 1 to
3 feet above ground level within the surge zone. Storm tide
values will be highest near and north of the center of storm
landfall.

The next time of high tide at Saint Simons Island will be tonight
at 1:14 am. The time of the high tide at Mayport will be at
12:51 am tonight.

The locations most likely to realize the greatest coastal
flooding include will be along the beaches and intracoastal
waterways as well as estuaries and inlets. Elevated water levels
will begin Sunday and continue Monday.

Moderate beach erosion will occur... which will become substantial
if conditions extend through multiple high tides. Several roads
in flood- prone areas may be closed due to flooding. In
addition... strong rip currents and elevated surf condition will
continue tonight through Monday.

... Inland flooding...
there is a potential for locally heavy rainfall on the order of
3 to 6 inches... possibly higher in isolated locations. Rainbands
will begin to move inland during the day Sunday. Periods of heavy
rainfall are expected to continue through Tuesday due to the
storm slowing down once it makes landfall and stalling over the
area. A Flood Watch has been issued for areas along and north of
State Road 16 in northeast Florida as well as all of southeast
Georgia.

... Tornadoes...
there will be a low chance of waterspouts and tornadoes Sunday
afternoon through Sunday night as rainbands move inland.
