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.

Special Weather Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 2:17 PM PDT on May 20, 2013

... Unseasonably cold temperatures and pass level snow expected
this week...

A potent cold front will sweep through southern Oregon and
northern California Tuesday afternoon and evening... bringing an
unseasonably cold air mass to the area. Strong gusty winds and
widespread precipitation will accompany the front as it
passes through... and temperatures will fall sharply.

Snow levels are expected to drop to around 2500 feet by Wednesday
morning... bringing in 2 to 5 inches of snow over
all Cascade passes... Siskiyou Summit... and The Mount Shasta area.
Snow amounts of over a foot are possible on the higher portions of
bear Camp Road. Snow levels may drop briefly down to lower passes
like Sexton Summit as well. However... with the longer days and
higher sun angles soil and Road temperatures are quite
warm... and it will be difficult for snow to accumulate.

Cold nighttime temperatures will bring below freezing temperatures
east of the Cascades Tuesday and Wednesday night. Temperatures in
places east of the Cascades may drop into the mid to lower
20s... possibly causing unprotected exposed pipes to burst.

Stay tuned to your local National Weather Service forecasts for
updates as the system progresses.
