We've seen a big temperature drop the past couple of days; with low 80s over the weekend, to 70° yesterday, to today where temperatures will only warm into the upper 50's. Overall, the work week is pretty quiet, besides a small chance for lighter showers tomorrow. But there are big extremes across the United States from north to south. In the north through portions of the Northern Plains they are dealing with Frost and Freeze Warnings as stronger low pressure system pulls in colder air. Directly south in the Southern Plains it's not cold but extremely wet. Heavy rain is continuing to fall through portions of Texas and Oklahoma along another low pressure system. Flood Watches have been issued across the area, with flash flooding also a concern. 21.04" of rain has fallen in Dallas, Texas so far this year, which is about how much they see in a year, and some rainfall rates were observed at 2" an hour at times. San Angelo, Texas received 4.64" of rain in 90 minutes last night!The quiet pattern for our area will slowly change going into the weekend, with showers and storms in the forecast for Memorial Day weekend.
