Weather Summary

Weather Underground midday recap for Friday, May 18, 2012.

Showers and thunderstorms developed over the Northern and Central Rockies on Friday as a low pressure system slowly moved off the Rockies into the Plains. Some of these storms turned severe in parts of Utah and western Colorado with strong winds and large hail. Limited moisture associated with this system allowed for rainfall totals to remain less than an inch for most areas. Winds up to 61 mph were reported at Bluffdale, Utah. A cold front extended south of this system and produced strong winds across the Great Basin and Southwestern US. In combination with hot temperatures and low relative humidity, this kept fire danger high for Arizona, New Mexico, and into the Central Rockies. Meanwhile, a warm front extended eastward from this system, and produced scattered showers over the Dakotas. Heavy rainfall has not been reported and severe thunderstorm development was not anticipated across the Northern Plains.

In the East, a ridge of high pressure created a warm, dry, and pleasant day for most of the Eastern US as it covered from the Northeast through the Eastern Valleys. High temperatures ranged in the 70s across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states, while parts of the Midwest reached into the 80s. In the Southeast, the tail end of a cold front lingered over the Carolinas and Florida, which triggered more showers and thunderstorms throughout the day.

High Surf Advisory, Beach Hazard Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 8:18 PM EDT on May 18, 2012

... High surf advisory in effect until 8 PM EDT Saturday...
... Beach hazards statement remains in effect from Saturday
morning through Saturday evening...

The National Weather Service in Newport/Morehead City has issued
a high surf advisory... which is in effect until 8 PM EDT
Saturday.

* Hazards... high rip current risk and high surf advisory.

* Timing... the most likely time for life threatening rip
currents will be a couple of hours either side of low tide.
Low tide will occur around 1 PM EDT Saturday afternoon.

* Location... along the beaches north of Cape Hatteras.

* Surf height... breakers around 7-9 feet are expected through
Saturday afternoon.

* Potential impacts... dangerous rip currents and high surf.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away
from shore... which occur most often at low spots or breaks in The
Sandbar and in the vicinity of structures such as groins...
jetties and piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards and the beach
patrol. Pay attention to flags and posted signs posted near beach
access points and lifeguard stations.

If you become caught in a rip current... do not panic. Remain calm
and begin to swim parallel to shore. Once you are away from the
force of the rip current... begin to swim back to the beach. Do
not attempt to swim directly against a rip current... since it can
exhaust and even kill the strongest swimmer.Shore break occurs
when waves break directly on the beach. The most common injuries
with strong shore break are neck and back injuries... which most
often occur when the powerful surf throws a swimmer or surfer
head first into the bottom. It is extremely important to protect
your head and neck whenever you are in breaking waves by keeping
your hands in front of you at all times.

A high surf advisory means that high surf will affect beaches in
the advisory area... producing dangerous rip currents and
localized beach erosion.
