…Heavy snow winding down over parts of the Central Rockies…
…There is a Slight Risk of excessive rainfall over parts of the
Central/Southern High Plains on Saturday…
…There is a Slight Risk of severe thunderstorms over parts of the
Southern High Plains on Saturday and Sunday…
An upper-level low over the Southeast will slowly weaken and move to the
Central Plains by Monday evening. The system will produce an isolated area
of heavy snow overnight Saturday into Sunday over the Central Rockies and
then taper off light snow over the Central Rockies on Sunday evening into
Monday.
In addition, the dynamic associated with the upper-low will produce
showers and severe thunderstorms over parts of the Southern High Plains.
Therefore, the SPC has issued a Slight Risk (level 2/5) of severe
thunderstorms over parts of the Southern High Plains through Sunday
morning. The hazards associated with these thunderstorms are frequent
lightning, severe thunderstorm wind gusts, hail, and a few tornadoes.
Furthermore, the storm will produce heavy rain over parts of the
Central/Southern High Plains. Therefore, the WPC has issued a Slight Risk
(level 2/4) of excessive rainfall over parts of the Central/Southern High
Plains through Sunday morning. The associated heavy rain will create
mainly localized areas of flash flooding, with urban areas, roads, small
streams, and low-lying areas the most vulnerable.
Moreover, the showers and severe thunderstorms continue over the Southern
High Plains on Sunday. Therefore, the SPC has issued a Slight Risk (level
2/5) of severe thunderstorms over parts of the Southern High Plains from
Sunday through Monday morning. The hazards associated with these
thunderstorms are frequent lightning, severe thunderstorm wind gusts,
hail, and a few tornadoes.
Meanwhile, a weakening front extending from the Upper Great Lakes to the
Central High Plains will produce light rain over parts of the Upper Great
Lakes/Upper Mississippi Valley on Saturday evening.
Furthermore, onshore flow off the Gulf of Mexico will create scattered
showers and thunderstorms over the southern portion of Texas through
Monday evening. Additionally, onshore flow off the Atlantic will produce
scattered showers over parts of Florida through Monday evening.
Elsewhere, a front will move onshore over the Pacific Northwest overnight
Saturday and move inland to the Northern Plains, Northern Rockies, and
Northern California by Monday evening. The system will produce rain over
parts of the Pacific Northwest through Monday. After the front passes the
Cascades, snow will develop over parts of the highest elevations of the
Cascades on Monday.
