Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Saturday, May 18, 2013.

A strong low pressure system will bring active weather to the center of the nation on Saturday. The system will move off the Rockies and into the Plains, which will push a warm front into the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest, while it continues pulling a cold front southeastward across the Western states. Counter clockwise flow around this system will pull more moisture and energy into the Plains from the Gulf of Mexico, allowing for showers and thunderstorms to develop from Oklahoma through the Dakotas and into Minnesota. These areas are under a slight threat of severe weather development with strong winds, large hail, and heavy rainfall. Parts of western Nebraska and northwestern Kansas are under a moderate risk of severe thunderstorm development. This area has increased risk for tornado development on Saturday.

East of this activity, a weak trough slowly moves over the Eastern Valleys, allowing for a few more widespread showers and thunderstorms to pop up from the Southern Appalachians through the Mid-Atlantic states. Meanwhile in the West, moisture from the Pacific Ocean will allow for scattered showers with afternoon thunderstorms to persist for the Northern and Central Rockies. Severe storms are not likely in these areas. In the Southwest, gusty winds, warm temperatures, and dry conditions will maintain dangerous fire weather conditions on Saturday.

Tornado Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 3:20 PM CDT on May 18, 2013

The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

* Tornado Watch for portions of
western and central Oklahoma
northwest Texas

* effective this Saturday afternoon and evening from 320 PM until
1100 PM CDT.

* Primary threats include...
several tornadoes possible
several large hail events likely with a few very large hail
    events to 3 inches in diameter possible
several damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely

The Tornado Watch area is approximately along and 75 statute
miles east and west of a line from 25 miles east northeast of
Alva Oklahoma to 30 miles south southeast of Abilene Texas. For
a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch
outline update (wous64 kwns wou1).

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Remember... a Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for
tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch
area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for
threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements
and possible warnings.


Other watch information... continue... ww 170...

Discussion... severe storms are expected to initiate near the dryline
in the vicinity of the western Oklahoma/Texas Panhandle border
area... southward across parts of northwest Texas... toward the
Edwards Plateau... during the next few hours as inhibition weakens in
peak afternoon heating. Discrete supercells will pose a risk for
very large hail and a few tornadoes... before activity grows upscale
this evening... with damaging wind potential perhaps becoming more
prominent. As low-level hodographs become clockwise curved and
quite large this evening... and boundary layer relative humidity
increases with diurnal cooling... a window of opportunity may exist
for a strong tornado or two... before convection consolidates into
organized clusters.

Aviation... tornadoes and a few severe thunderstorms with hail
surface and aloft to 3 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface
wind gusts to 60 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to
550. Mean storm motion vector 25030.
