Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Monday, May 20, 2013.

Heavy rains and severe thunderstorm activity will continue for areas of the Plains into the Midwest on Monday as a broad, nearly stationary low sits over the Northern Plains. As the system lingers, ample moisture and energy will stream northward from the Gulf of Mexico, while an associated cold front extends from the low into Iowa and back across the Central and Southern Plains. The sharpening cold front combined with a dry line in the Southern Plains and the moisture laden conditions of the region will allow for multiple clusters of thunderstorms to develop across the Plains and into the Mid-Mississippi Valley. Portions of Oklahoma, southeastern Kansas, extreme, northwestern Arkansas, an southwestern Missouri are at moderate risk of severe thunderstorm activity as environmental conditions remain favorable for strong tornadoes, damaging wind gusts, and very large hail. Areas surrounding this moderate risk region from the parts of the southwestern Texas into the Upper Great Lakes are at slight risk of severe thunderstorm development with hail and isolated tornadoes.

Meanwhile, areas of heavy rain and widely scattered showers will persist near the low and it's associated warm front in portions of the north-central U.S. Continued precipitation in these already saturate areas combined with rapid runoff will continue flood concerns from parts of North Dakota into northwestern Wisconsin.

Elsewhere, scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected in the Mid-Atlantic and southeastern corner of the nation as a weak upper trough of low pressure drops southward over the region. Locally heavy rain amounts of up to 2 inches may result in areas of minor flooding, especially in poor drainage areas. To the north, additional showers will be possible in the Northeast.

Special Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 6:38 AM PDT on May 20, 2013

... Much cooler weather expected Tuesday with pass level snow by
Wednesday...

A cold low pressure system will approach the Pacific northwest
this afternoon and begin spreading light rain across southwest
Washington and northwest Oregon late tonight into Tuesday morning.
There will be a drastic change in temperatures Tuesday
afternoon where many locations will experience temperatures 20
degrees cooler than what is expected for this afternoon.

Snow levels will start out high... near 8000 feet tonight... then lower
to around 3000 feet by Tuesday evening. Snow accumulations are
expected to remain below advisory conditions with 2 to 4 inches expected
between 3000 and 6000 feet Tuesday night through Wednesday. Higher
snow amounts... 7 to 9 inches is likely above 6000 feet.

Another potential hazard with this storm is small hail. Many
locations will likely experience small hail with the heavier
showers possibly resulting in extra slick roadways.

Drivers should use extra caution... especially while driving over
the Cascade passes or encountering small hail on the roads. Slow
down and leave plenty of room between cars.

Hikers and climbers venturing into the mountains will want to be
prepared for a quick change to cold and wet weather on
Tuesday... especially following a deceptively warm and sunny
Monday. From 3000 feet and up... be prepared for accumulating snow
starting later Tuesday and continuing through at least Wednesday
night.
