Weather Underground midday recap for Monday, June 16,2014
A cold
front extended from the Great Basin to the northern Plains on Monday,
while a separate cold front stretched from the middle Mississippi Valley
to the Great Lakes.
A cold front extended across the middle Mississippi Valley and the Great Lakes on Monday. As warm, humid air interacted with this system, strong to severe thunderstorms developed across a handful of states. The strongest thunderstorms developed across the northern Plains and the upper Mississippi Valley, as tornado watches were issued in northwest Iowa and southwest Minnesota. Severe thunderstorm warnings were also issued in southeast South Dakota and southwest Minnesota. Burwell, Neb., reported golf ball sized hail, while Utica, Neb., reported tennis ball sized hail. These thunderstorms also brought heavy rain to the region, as flash flood warnings were issued in eastern South Dakota, southwest Minnesota and northwest Iowa. Tekamah, Neb., reported a midday total of 0.95 inches of rain, while Watertown, S.D., reported a midday total of 0.83 inches of rain. In addition, isolated showers and thunderstorms moved across the Ohio Valley, the Northeast and the Mid-Atlantic on Monday.
Meanwhile, high pressure kept conditions mostly clear across the Four Corners and the southern Plains. An onshore flow from the Gulf of Mexico initiated rain and thunderstorms across parts of the Gulf Coast and the Southeast. Immokalee Regional Airport, Fla., reported a midday total of 0.69 inches of rain.
Out west, a cold front extended across the Great Basin and the Intermountain West. This system triggered showers and thunderstorms across the upper Intermountain West on Monday. On onshore flow from the Pacific also pushed wet weather across the Pacific Northwest. A ridge of high pressure over the eastern Pacific kept conditions clear across the Southwest.
