Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Friday, May 24, 2013.

Showers and thunderstorms will move into the Plains, while also continuing across the East Coast on Friday. A low pressure system over the Rocky Mountains will persist on its eastward track and move into the Plains. Flow around this system will create northward flow, pulling abundant moisture and energy in from the Gulf of Mexico. This will allow for scattered showers and thunderstorms to develop across the Southern Plains again on Friday, spreading northward through the Central and Northern Plains. There is a slight chance that these storms will turn severe across northeastern Colorado, into western Kansas and Nebraska. Large hail and strong winds are likely in these areas, with possibly a tornado or two.

Meanwhile in the East, a trough of low pressure and associated cold front will slowly move eastward and offshore the East Coast on Friday. This system will allow for showers and thunderstorms to persist from the Mid-Atlantic states through Maine. Severe thunderstorms are not likely in these areas, but periods of heavy rainfall and strong winds will persist as this system lingers over the Northeast through Friday night.

Out West, an area of low pressure continues spinning over the Pacific Northwest, maintaining onshore flow. This will bring more rain showers to Oregon and Washington, with snow showers possible at highest elevations.

Beach Hazard Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 3:35 AM CDT on May 24, 2013

... Beach hazards statement in effect through this evening...

The National Weather Service in Chicago has issued a beach
hazards statement for dangerous swimming conditions... which is in
effect through this afternoon.

* High wave action expected...

* strong rip currents expected...

* strong structural currents expected...

* overview/potential impacts... strong north to northeast winds
will gust to 30 to 35 mph this morning before diminishing into
the afternoon. Waves of 6 to 9 ft with occasional larger waves
will gradually subside through the afternoon. The winds and
waves will create dangerous conditions at Lake Michigan beaches.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Dangerous pounding waves and life-threatening rip currents are
expected at the beaches. People visiting the beaches should stay out
of the water.

Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away
from shore... which occur most often at low spots or breaks in
sandbars. Rip currents can sweep you out lakeward.

Structural currents form along piers and breakwalls where longshore
currents and wave action flow into the structure. Structural
currents can sweep you out lakeward along the pier structure.
