Weather Summary
Weather Underground midday recap for Saturday, May 18, 2013.

Multiple areas of unsettled weather developed over the nation on Saturday. In the center of the nation, a broad low pressure system moved off the Rockies and into the Central and Northern Plains. This system created a warm front that developed over the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest, which stretched eastward into the Great Lakes. Scattered showers and thunderstorms developed along and ahead of this frontal boundary with some parts of Minnesota reporting over 2 inches of rain by mid-day Saturday. These storms have not yet turned severe, but have a history of producing strong winds, large hail, and even a few tornadoes. The back side of this broad low pressure system continued to pull a cold front across the Western states. This allowed for onshore flow to persist from the Pacific Ocean, maintaining sufficient moisture to kick up scattered showers across the Intermountain West, Rocky Mountains, and Great Basin. Some snow showers developed at the highest elevations of Wyoming and Montana. As moisture and energy from this front moved off the Rockies and into the Central and Northern Plains, threats of severe thunderstorm development increased. There was a moderate risk for severe storms with large hail, strong winds, and tornadoes from eastern Colorado through western Nebraska and Kansas, but severe storms have not yet developed.

Meanwhile in the East, a trough of low pressure slowly moved offshore and allowed for more showers and thunderstorms to persist for the Eastern Valleys, the Central and Southern Appalachians, and the Mid-Atlantic States. Severe storms were not anticipated in these areas.

... Warm weather and fast flowing cold water are a deadly
combination...

... National safe boating week begins Saturday...

Area rivers... streams and reservoirs are directly fed from the
melting snow pack in the Sierra Nevada and Tehachapi Mountains.
Even though a stream or river looks cool and inviting... the water
is actually very cold. Outdoor enthusiasts are advised to use
extreme caution near rivers... streams and reservoirs.

If you are planning travel into the southern Sierra Nevada... the
Tehachapi Mountains... the Kern River Canyon or the Sierra foothills
this weekend... remember that the increased cold water flow in
rivers... streams and reservoirs... combined with expected
temperatures in the 80s to lower 90s... can be a potentially
deadly combination.

People planning activities such as rafting... swimming or
paddling should always wear life jackets or vests... and keep other
flotation gear handy when in the water. Be aware that exposure to
cold water for too long could quickly result in hypothermia.
Hypothermia is a sudden loss of body temperature which can be
fatal. Early signs of hypothermia are uncontrollable shivering and
numbness of limbs. The advanced stages of hypothermia include...
memory loss... disorientation... slurred speech... drowsiness and
apparent exhaustion. A person may appear drunk during the advanced
stage and shivering may decrease or stop. If you witness someone
suffering from the symptoms of hypothermia... get help immediately.

If you are camping near a river or stream... remember that the
highest water levels occur at night... usually within an hour or
two either side of midnight. A campground may look dry and safe
in the late afternoon... but can take on water at night.
