Weather Summary

Weather Underground midday recap for Monday, May 20, 2013.

Heavy rains and chances of severe thunderstorm activity continued for areas of the Plains into the Midwest on Tuesday as a broad, nearly stationary low remained over the Northern Plains. As the system lingered, ample moisture streamed northward from the Gulf of Mexico, while an associated cold front reached from the low southward through Central and Southern Plains. The sharpening cold front combined with a dry line in the Southern Plains and the moisture laden conditions of the Central U.S. set the stage for multiple clusters of thunderstorms to develop across the Plains and into the Mid-Mississippi Valley. Portions of eastern/central Oklahoma, north-central Texas, northwestern Arkansas, southern Missouri, far southeastern Kansas remained at moderate risk of severe thunderstorm activity as environmental conditions remained favorable for strong tornadoes, damaging wind gusts, and very large hail. Areas surrounding this moderate risk region from the parts of the central Texas into the Upper Great Lakes and Upper Mississippi Valley were at slight risk of severe thunderstorm development with hail and isolated tornadoes.

Meanwhile, areas of heavy rain and widely scattered showers persisted near the low and it\\\\'s associated warm front in portions of the north-central U.S. Continued precipitation in this already saturate region combined with rapid runoff maintained flood concerns from parts of North Dakota into northwestern Wisconsin.

Elsewhere, scattered showers and thunderstorms developed in the Mid-Atlantic and southeastern corner of the nation as a weak upper trough of low pressure dropped southward over the region. To the north, additional showers were possible in the Northeast.

... Safety rules for severe thunderstorms...

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch or warning has been issued by the
National Weather Service. The following tips are being provided
while the watch or warning is in effect.

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are favorable for the
development of severe weather in and close to the watch area. If you
are in the watch area... monitor weather conditions closely. These
storms can develop rapidly so there may be occasions when advanced
warning is not possible.

A Severe Thunderstorm Warning means a severe thunderstorm has been
observed or indicated by radar. If you are near or in the path of
this storm... take immediate actions to protect life and property.
Follow these safety rules.

In open country... you should seek shelter and avoid trees which can
be targets for lightning. If there is no shelter... go to a ditch or
culvert but beware of rising water or flash flooding.

When indoors... stay away from windows and go to an interior room.

In Mobile homes... you should leave and seek a nearby safe shelter.

If swimming or on a boat... move to shore as quickly as possible and
find shelter.

A thunderstorm is considered severe when it contains one inch or
larger diameter size hail or wind gusts of 58 mph or greater. A
severe thunderstorm may contain a combination of these two elements
as well as very heavy rain and deadly lightning.

Remember... with some severe thunderstorms there is the possibility
of tornadoes.
