Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Saturday, May 19, 2012.

Active weather continues moving through the Central US on Saturday as a low pressure system moves off the Rockies and into the Plains. This system will pull moisture in from the Gulf of Mexico and produces scattered showers and thunderstorms across the Northern and Central Plains, moving into the Upper Midwest. Some of these storms may turn severe with strong winds, large hail, and possibly a few tornadoes. Rainfall totals will reach over 2 inches in areas of severe weather development.

In the East, expect high pressure to remain the dominant weather feature, allowing for dry and warm conditions to continue. Expect sunny skies with highs in the 80s from the Northeast, through the Eastern Valleys, and into the Mid-Atlantic states. However, further south, a few scattered showers and thunderstorms may continue over parts of Florida as a frontal boundary lingers over the region. These storms are not expected to turn severe.

In the West, high pressure keeps the Southwestern US hot, dry, and breezy on Saturday. This will maintain high fire danger throughout Arizona, New Mexico, and into western Texas. The rest of the Western US will see a warming trend as high pressure builds in from the west and allows for sunny and pleasant conditions.
