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.

... Patchy frost possible from late tonight into Saturday morning...

As high pressure built into the area today... the northerly winds
brought in some cool and dry air. The winds will diminish tonight...
and with clearing skies... temperatures will fall to the mid 30s in
the coldest valleys. This will allow for patchy frost to develop.
The frost will be limited in valleys where fog develops tonight.
However... in the normally colder valley locations... it would be a
good idea to protect any plants which are especially sensitive to
frost.

... Patchy frost possible late tonight into Saturday morning...

An unusually cool and dry air mass will invade the region on
northwest to north winds today. Despite sunshine returning for the
afternoon... temperatures are not expected to make it out of the 60s.
The wind will diminish tonight... and with clear skies... temperatures
will fall to very chilly readings by dawn. The coldest valley
locations are expected to be in the mid 30s... which may allow for
patchy frost to develop. At the same time... fog will also develop in
some valleys... which would help to limit the frost potential.
However... in the normally colder valley locations... it would be a
good idea to protect plants which are especially sensitive to frost.
