Weather Summary

Weather Underground midday recap for Saturday, May 25, 2013.

Heavy rain over Texas caused major flooding for San Antonio, while showers and thunderstorms turned severe over the Northern High Plains on Saturday. Onshore flow from the Gulf of Mexico for the southwest, in combination with a wave of low pressure that moved eastward over Texas, allowed for extremely heavy rainfall to develop across south-central Texas late Friday into Saturday. Rainfall totals at San Antonio Airport, Texas reached up to 9.87 inches by mid-day Saturday. This broke the record for the heaviest rainfall over one calendar day in May for San Antonio. The 24 hour total from this rainfall event has reached up to 12.16 inches, but did not break the record for the heaviest rainfall over a 24 hour period for San Antonio, which is 13.35 inches. This system created major flooding for San Antonio and the surrounding area.

In the North, a low pressure system moved off the Northern and Central Rockies and created a warm front that stretched from western Montana into the Upper and Mid-Mississippi River Valley. This system kicked up scattered showers and thunderstorms over western Montana and eastern North and South Dakotas, while more widespread rain showers developed over Illinois and Iowa. Some of these storms turned severe with large hail and strong winds. Pea to quarter size hail was reported at Belfield, North Dakota and Burns, Montana.

In the East, a low pressure system brought more rain to the Northeast. Precipitation from this system turned to snow overnight Friday and into Saturday morning due to cooler temperatures, but most places that saw snow, only a dusting of snow.

... Safety rules for severe Summer storms...

A Tornado Watch has been issued by the National Weather Service.
The following information and safety rules may save your life.

A watch means that weather conditions are favorable for the
development of severe thunderstorms and possibly tornadoes.
During a watch... you should go about your normal business... but
stay updated on the latest weather developments and be prepared
to go to a place of safety.

A warning means that severe thunderstorms or tornadoes have been
reported... or have been detected by radar. People in the warned area
should seek shelter immediately.

Tornadoes are natures most violent storms. In a home... the best
shelter is in the basement under heavy furniture. If no basement is
available... get to the center of the house on the lowest floor. Get
into a closet... interior Hall or a windowless bathroom. Stay away
from windows and doors. Protect your head with whatever you
can... a heavy blanket or even your hands.

In a school... office or similar type of building... go quickly to a
basement if available. If no basement is available... go to a
Central Hall or corridor on the lowest floor. Keep away from outside
walls... doors and windows. Stay out of auditoriums and gymnasiums.
If caught there... get under or next to something sturdy.

If in a Mobile home... whether it is tied down or not... seek shelter
in the nearest reinforced building.

If in a car and in open country... drive at right angles away from the
tornado. If in a car in an urban area... leave the vehicle and get to
a reinforced building.
