Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Thursday, May 23, 2013. A strong, large storm will continue making its way through the eastern third of the country on Thursday, producing more, active weather east of the Mississippi Valley. While the active weather is not likely to produce the severe thunderstorms that have greeted the country over the past several days, scattered thunderstorms will be likely, especially in the Southeast. In addition, moderate to occasionally heavy rain will move through the Northeast, followed by cool showers in the Ohio Valley and Upper Midwest.

Meanwhile, some moisture pushing into the Southern Plains could possibly instigate some severe thunderstorms in northern Texas and western Oklahoma. Due to this possibility, the Storm Prediction Center has issued a slight risk of severe weather in the area for Thursday. This means residents in the area should prepare as if severe weather will develop, making any necessary preparations to protect life and property.

Also, a seasonably strong low pressure system will linger over the Pacific Northwest today, allowing wet weather to continue in the area. While rain will be the overwhelming precipitation due to this storm, a few snow showers will be possible in the higher elevations of the Cascades.

Additionally, rain will also spread as far east as central Montana.

The Northeast will rise into the 70s and 80s, while the Southeast will see temperatures in the 80s and 90s. The Southern Plains will rise into the 80s and 90s, while the Southwest will see similar temperatures.

Areal Flood Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 9:31 PM AKDT on May 22, 2013

... Flood Watch remains in effect from Thursday afternoon through
Sunday afternoon for the Yukon river from Rampart to Tanana...

The Flood Watch continues for

* the Yukon river from Rampart to Tanana.

* From Thursday afternoon through Sunday afternoon

* a resident in Beaver reports that ice started running past the
Village just after 6pm. Ice was still running past at 900 PM.
Ice was reported to be jumbled with some sheets as large as 100
feet across. Water level was not reported to have risen much
with the run of ice. Earlier today the river watch team
reported that there was a 5 mile long lead downriver from Beaver
at the mouth of the hodzana river. The break up front is
expected to continue downriver to Rampart and Tanana between
Thursday afternoon and Sunday.

* If an ice jam forms as the break up front moves past then
water levels could rise rapidly and flooding could occur at
Rampart and Tanana between Thursday afternoon and Sunday.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.

Residents along the Yukon river between Rampart and Tanana should
monitor river conditions and take precautions to protect life and
property. Water levels can rise very quickly if an ice jam
occurs.
