Weather Summary
Weather Underground midday recap for Thursday, May 23, 2013.

Severe storms developed over the Southern Plains from northern Texas through northern Oklahoma on Thursday. A trough of low pressure lingered over the region, which pulled moisture and energy in from the Gulf of Mexico. This allowed for showers and thunderstorms to develop in these areas, some of which turned severe with large hail, damaging winds, and periods of heavy rainfall. A brief tornado was reported near Cedar Hill, Texas. Hail 2.5 inches in diameter was reported near Davis, Oklahoma and 65 mph winds were reported at Newcastle and Dickson, Oklahoma. Rainfall totals varied over 2 inches with this system. Oklahoma City reported a mid-day total of 2.92 inches of rain.

Meanwhile in the East, a trough of low pressure over the East Coast allowed for a strong cold front to stretch from the Northeast through the Eastern Valleys. Moisture ahead of this front allowed for showers to develop from the Carolinas through Maine, with some areas of thunderstorms. There was a slight chance that these storms would turn severe from Virginia through New Hampshire, but severe storms have not developed.

Meanwhile Out West, a low pressure system mover the Rockies maintained widespread showers across the Pacific Northwest and Northern Rockies. Strong winds developed ahead of this system from eastern Montana through western Colorado. Gillette, Wyoming reported maximum winds up to 56 mph.

           East east-component west west-component
        >25mph any spd >25mph any spd >25mph any spd >25mph any spd
Bozeman 0 pct 11 pct <0.1 21 pct 0.1 15 pct 0.1 23 pct
Cut Bank 0 pct 7 pct <0.1 11 pct 0 45 pct 8 53 pct
grt falls 0 9 pct <0.1 14 pct 2 24 pct 4 49 pct
Havre 0 21 pct 0.1 25 pct 1 31 pct 1 51 pct
Lewistown 0.1 20 pct 0.1 25 pct 1 30 pct 2 46 pct

Key:
east = east-northeast through east-southeast directions
west = west-southwest through west-northwest directions
east component = northeast through southeast directions
west component = southwest through northwest directions

This table shows that at Great Falls... sustained east winds of 25
mph or greater occur less than 0.1 percent of the hours in the
year... sustained 25 mph northeast through southeast winds occur 2
percent of the year... and west winds occur 49 percent of the hours
in the year.
