Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Wednesday, June 19, 2013.

Wet and active weather will spread across the Northwest with threats of severe weather development on Wednesday. An upper low along the Pacific Northwest Coast will begin to shift inland on Wednesday, ushering ample moisture and energy inland across the Pacific Northwest, Northern Intermountain West and Northern Rockies. Expect scattered showers and thunderstorm activity to spread across these regions through the day, with areas of severe weather becoming possible in central and eastern Montana into northwestern North Dakota. The Storm Prediction Center has issued a slight risk of severe thunderstorm development for this area on Wednesday with primary threats of large hail and damaging wind gusts. In addition to severe storms, these areas will also see increased chance of flooding due to the slow moving nature of this system.

Elsewhere in the West, fire danger will run high across the Four Corners as gusty winds sweep across the region and a warm and dry airmass remains overhead. Red Flag Warnings are expected for this region as this weather setup will increase chances of wildfire development.

In the Plains, generally isolated showers and thunderstorms in the Southern High Plains will advance northeastward across the Central Plains, spanning into the Northern Plains and the Mid-Mississippi Valley by the evening.

In the East, showers will gradually taper off in the Northeast and upper Mid-Atlantic as cold fronts impacting the regions move offshore and high pressure moves overhead. The southern portion of a cold front extending across the Southeast will become nearly stationary as it nears the Gulf Coast. Expect showers and thunderstorm to continue in the southeastern corner of the nation and along the Gulf Coast.

Flash Flood Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 5:47 AM MDT on June 19, 2013

... Flash Flood Watch in effect from noon MDT today through this
evening for north central and central Montana...

The National Weather Service in Great Falls has issued a

* Flash Flood Watch for portions of central Montana and north
central Montana... including the following areas... in central
Montana... Cascade... Fergus and Judith Basin. In north central
Montana... Blaine... Chouteau... eastern Glacier... eastern
Pondera... eastern Teton... hill... Liberty... northern Rocky
Mountain front... southern Rocky Mountain front and Toole.

* From noon MDT today through this evening.

* Showers and thunderstorms producing brief heavy rainfall will
initially develop over the Rocky Mountain front and adjacent
plains early this afternoon... then spread east across the
remainder of the watch area late this afternoon into this
evening. Soils are still nearly saturated in spots... and much of
the anticipated rainfall will run off... possibly causing
localized flash flooding.

* Areas east of Interstate 15 are more susceptible than others to
flash flooding with this system. Soils there remain mostly
saturated... and that area will likely receive the greatest
amount of rainfall.

* Urban areas are also prone to street flooding due to rapid heavy
rainfall... as sewer systems may not able to handle significant
amounts of rainfall in a short amount of time.

* Low lying areas... creeks... streams... and rivers are most
susceptible to flash flooding. Therefore... those living near
these areas should have a plan of action ready and move
immediately to safety should heavy rainfall develop.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead
to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should flash flood warnings be issued.
