THE SURFACE LOW IN NEW MEXICO IS EXPECTED TO MOVE NORTHEASTWARD
THROUGH THE WEEKEND...BRINGING THE COLD FRONT WITH IT THROUGH THE
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY ON SATURDAY EVENING AND THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY
ON SUNDAY. THE FRONT LOCATED IN TEXAS WILL MOVE SLOWLY NORTHWARD
ON SATURDAY THROUGH THE MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THE PORTION OF
THAT FRONT FARTHER EAST WILL LINGER IN THE OHIO VALLEY BEFORE THE
COLD FRONT SWEEPS THROUGH. THESE BOUNDARIES WILL CAUSE MULTIPLE
ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO
THE MID-ATLANTIC OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. AREAS FROM NORTH TEXAS TO
NORTH KENTUCKY CAN EXPECT AN ADDITIONAL 2 TO 4 INCHES OF
RAIN...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS. A SLIGHT RISK OF FLASH
FLOODING IS IN PLACE FOR EASTERN OKLAHOMA TO NORTHERN ARKANSAS AND
SOUTHERN MISSOURI...AS WELL AS PORTIONS OF THE TENNESSEE VALLEY
THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING. HOWEVER...A HIGH RISK OF FLASH FLOODING
WILL EXTEND FROM SOUTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA TO NORTHERN KENTUCKY FROM
SATURDAY MORNING TO SUNDAY MORNING. BECAUSE SOILS ARE ALREADY
SATURATED FROM PREVIOUS HEAVY RAINFALL...ANY ADDITIONAL RAINFALL
CAN OVERWHELM RIVERS AND CAUSE MAJOR FLOODING. WHERE COLDER AIR IS
IN PLACE...ICE COULD ACCUMULATE OVER A TENTH OF AN INCH FROM
NORTHEASTERN KANSAS AND SOUTHEASTERN NEBRASKA INTO NORTHERN
MISSOURI AND SOUTHERN IOWA THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING.
ALSO...ADDITIONAL HEAVY SNOW OF 6 TO 10 INCHES IS POSSIBLE FOR
PORTIONS OF THE UPPER MIDWEST.
THE NEXT STORM SUMMARY WILL BE ISSUED BY THE WEATHER PREDICTION
CENTER AT 300 AM CST. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS EVENT.
