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.

Public Information Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 11:12 am MDT on May 24, 2013

The following is a list of tornado safety rules that can be
passed along to residents of and visitors to southern Colorado.

If you are in the path of the tornado... the safest place to go is
a basement... under a workbench or piece of sturdy furniture. If
no basement is available... go to an interior room... away from
windows... such as a closet or bathroom on the lowest floor. Use
blankets... pillows... or cushions to cover your body. Stay away
from windows.

If you are outside... go to a nearby strong building. If you
absolutely cannot get indoors... go to a low spot... Crouch down...
and cover your head with your hands for protection.

If you are in a vehicle in a rural area... and see a tornado... you
could drive away from the tornado. In a town or city... traffic
could slow you down... so its best to try to get into a sturdy
building. Vehicles can be violently tossed by strong or violent
tornados. Mobile homes should be abandoned for a nearby stronger
structure.

If you are in a public building... such as your place of work... a
mall... grocery store... or church... go to the predesignated
shelter area. You should plan ahead and know where the shelter
is located.
