Severe thunderstorm watches and warnings developed Tuesday evening, October 13, across parts of Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma as Simon’s moisture continued to feed heavy storms. The update adds damaging-wind and large-hail concerns to an ongoing flood-watch event that could last into Wednesday and Thursday in parts of the Plains.
The Congaree River is producing delayed flooding in central South Carolina after heavy rain from Isaias’ remnants. Flood Warnings continue into Thursday and Friday for river points near Carolina Eastman and Congaree National Park, where minor flooding is occurring and moderate flooding is forecast at one gauge.
A chilly storm system is bringing Maine a mainly wet Tuesday, October 13, with pockets of early-season snow, sleet or light icing possible in the western and northern high country. Offshore waters face a separate marine hazard, with gale warnings scheduled overnight and small-craft conditions lasting into Wednesday.
Mountain snow is becoming a new concern in parts of the Great Basin and central Rockies as colder air moves into the storm pattern left behind by Rachel’s moisture. Advisories now cover high terrain in Wyoming and Nevada, with accumulating snow also expected on high-elevation routes in Utah and Colorado through midweek.
Near-record October heat is spreading across parts of the Plains and Midwest on Monday, October 12, and Tuesday, October 13. Highs in the low to mid-90s are possible in parts of Missouri and nearby Illinois, while Iowa may see unusually warm nights and southwest Missouri faces elevated fire danger.
Winter Storm Warnings have replaced earlier watches across parts of western and central Montana as heavy, wet snow begins Saturday evening, October 10, and continues into Monday morning. Travel may become very difficult in some valleys and mountain passes, with isolated power problems possible where wet snow and gusty wind combine.
