100janovski 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2009 Quoted from here!Thunderstorms were forecast to continue across the Southeast coast Friday as a weak trough in the upper atmosphere trough continued to sit across the region. The storms would set up across the Carolinas and Georgia for the most part, though activity would also spread to the north and south from Florida into the Mid-Atlantic states. None of the storms in the region were expected to be exceptionally strong, although some very heavy precipitation was expected from some of the storms. Flooding was possible near the border of North Carolina and South Carolina where some of the heaviest precipitation was expected to fall. The wet weather was expected to remain over the East Coast into the Weekend, but should begin to subside Sunday afternoon. In the West, thunderstorms would continue over the Southwest and Rockies, where some flash flooding was also possible. These storms would contain frequent lightning, but strong winds or hail were unlikely. The Northwest was also expected to be a bit wet as a Pacific Storm system continued to trek into Southwestern Canada. Most of the precipitation associated with this system would remain close to the border, though a line of thunderstorms was expected to dive as far south as southern Idaho. California was forecast to cool a bit as a trough of low pressure approaches the coast, but temperatures would begin to climb into the weekend. Temperatures in the Lower 48 states Thursday ranged from a low of 33 degrees at Truckee-Tahoe, Calif., to a high of 105 degrees at Blythe, Calif. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
