Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Wednesday, May 23, 2012.

The Nation will continue to see relatively stagnant weather on Wednesday as afternoon thunderstorms develop in the East and the Northwest continues to see cool, wet weather.

The Northeast will see another day of afternoon showers and thunderstorms as the disorganized frontal boundaries that have been lingering around for the last few days continue their snails pace drift eastward. Thunderstorms are anticipated from the Carolinas through coastal Maine, with the bulk of precipitation expected in the southern Appalachians.

Further south, wet weather should end on Wednesday, with clear skies building into the Gulf Coast states.

Clear skies are also anticipated throughout the Plains, but the Northern Plains will see cloud cover move in as some rain approaches from the West. The precipitation will be most pronounced over the Dakotas in the morning, then into Minnesota by afternoon.

Further west Precipitation will increase a bit in coverage as moisture streams into the Northwest. Most of Washington, Oregon and Idaho will see Precipitation on Wednesday.

The nation’s biggest weather shift will come to Florida, where heavy rain will move into southern portions of the state as moisture associated with the remains of Tropical Storm Alberto rain themselves out across the western Atlantic.

Flash Flood Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 3:50 AM CDT on May 23, 2012

... Flash Flood Watch in effect from this evening through Thursday
afternoon...

The National Weather Service in Sioux Falls has issued a

* Flash Flood Watch for portions of northwest Iowa... southwest
Minnesota... northeast Nebraska and southeast South Dakota...
including the following areas... in northwest Iowa... Buena
Vista... Cherokee... Clay... Dickinson... Ida... Lyon... Obrien...
Osceola... Plymouth... Sioux and Woodbury. In southwest
Minnesota... Cottonwood... Jackson... Murray and Nobles. In
northeast Nebraska... Dakota and Dixon. In southeast South
Dakota... Union.

* From this evening through Thursday afternoon

* rainfall totals are expected to average 2 to 3 inches tonight
through midday Thursday in the watch area. Locally heavier
amounts are possible.

* Flooding is possible in low lying and poor drainage areas. In
addition... heavy rainfall in short periods of time frequently
cause urban flooding and can wash out unpaved rural roads. Some
of these areas in the watch area... especially along the Highway
60 corridor... received heavy rain last Saturday night creating
saturated ground. Any ground that is saturated will add to
flooding potential.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead
to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should flash flood warnings be issued.
