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.

Coastal Flood Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 11:06 AM EDT on May 23, 2013

... Coastal Flood Advisory in effect from 6 PM to 9 PM EDT this
evening...

The National Weather Service in Taunton has issued a coastal
Flood Advisory... which is in effect from 6 PM to 9 PM EDT this
evening.

* Location... Narragansett Bay shoreline in Rhode Island.

* Coastal flooding... localized minor coastal flooding along
vulnerable areas.

* Timing... within an hour or so of the high tide... which occurs
between 7 and 8 PM.

* Impacts... a few shore roads and possibly a few basements will be
flooded around the time of the evening high tide. The flooding
could be exacerbated if heavy rain showers produce fresh water
runoff at the time of the high tide.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A coastal Flood Advisory is issued for minor coastal flooding of
the most vulnerable shore roads and/or basements due to the
height of storm tide or wave splashover. The majority of roads
remain passable with only isolated closures. There is no
significant threat to life and any impact on property is minimal.



All tide heights are relative to mean lower low water.
Time of high total tides are approximate to the nearest hour.
