Weather Summary
Weather Underground midday recap for Friday, May 24, 2013.

Heavy rainfall and strong thunderstorms developed over southern Texas and northern Mexico on Friday, as onshore flow from the Gulf of Mexico maintained warm and humid conditions. Rainfall totals reached over 2 inches by mid-day for the region. Uvalde, Texas saw a mid-day total of 2.06 inches of rain. Wind gusts up to 50 mph also accompanied this system.

To the north, showers and thunderstorms developed over the Plains as a broad low pressure system moved off the Rockies and into the Plains. This pushed a warm front eastward, which allowed for showers and thunderstorms to pop up from North Dakota through Kansas. These storms have not yet turned severe but there was a slight chance of severe thunderstorm development across northeastern Colorado and into western Kansas and Nebraska. Large hail and strong winds were likely in these areas, with possibly a tornado or two.

Meanwhile in the East, a trough of low pressure and associated cold front allowed for showers and thunderstorms to persist from the Mid-Atlantic states through Maine. Strong winds and heavy rainfall were reported from Pennsylvania through Maine. Out West, a trough of low pressure over the Pacific Northwest kicked up a few more scattered showers across Washington and Oregon, which moved into Idaho and western Montana.

Special Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 9:52 AM EDT on May 24, 2013

... Rough boating conditions expected this Memorial Day weekend...

Rough boating conditions are expected at times over the Holiday
weekend across the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Northeast winds
increase to between 15 and 20 knots over the coastal waters of the
eastern Gulf of Mexico tonight as strong high pressure builds to
the north of the Florida Peninsula. Gusty easterly winds will
continue through the morning hours of Saturday and then briefly
diminish Saturday afternoon. Easterly winds are then expected to
quickly increase to advisory levels Saturday evening and remain
elevated into Sunday morning.

These conditions will build seas to between 3 and 4 feet away
from the coast by late tonight... and then to between 4 and 5
Saturday night.

Boaters venturing out into the eastern Gulf of Mexico for the
Memorial Day weekend should prepare for these rough late may
conditions during the overnight and morning hours the next
several days.
