Weather Underground midday recap for Monday, September 16,2013.
A cold front approached the Southeast on Monday, which caused
thunderstorms to occur in the Mid-Atlantic states. Meanwhile, the same
cold front, which extended into the Northeast, brought showers and
thunderstorms to the Northeast coast. Spotty thunderstorms caused by
Tropical Storm Ingrid affected parts of southern Texas, while similar
conditions occurred in southern Florida due to an easterly flow off of
the Atlantic.
The Northeast experienced thunderstorms from the Virginia coast to Maine
as a cold front moved towards the Atlantic. Stronger thunderstorms
along the same cold front moved through the central Midwest, which
affected Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Missouri. The northern Plains
experienced temperatures 10 to 20 degrees above average as a result of a
high pressure system.
A moist, easterly flow moved over southern Florida earlier today,
causing thunderstorms to occur in the bottom half of the state. Across
the Gulf of Mexico, Tropical Storm Ingrid made landfall over eastern
Mexico, which caused spotty thunderstorms to pop up over southern Texas.
The Great Basin and central Rockies got a bit of relief earlier today as
conditions stayed relatively dry throughout the region. Meanwhile
towards the North, a cold front moved its way out of the Pacific
Northwest, pushing showers and thunderstorms into Idaho and Montana.
Behind the cold front, rain continued to persist along the Pacific
Northwest coast. Towards the Southwest, warm, dry conditions occurred as
a result of a dominant high pressure system.
