Moisture Streaming In

Some more rain showers out there this morning mainly for Iowa and southeast South Dakota. Here is a current look at these showers.These are all being produced by a stationary boundary that is in northern Nebraska. The clash of two air masses and a moisture funnel that works its way in all the way from portions of Mexico. Big ridge of high pressure in the Southeast United States and a clockwise rotation of the air around the high and that funnels moisture into the upper Midwest. But there is a high pressure to the north squeezing that narrow band through southern South Dakota and northern Nebraska. All of this can be seen in the water vapor image below. Remember dark whites and colors indicate lots of moisture and the black areas indicate very little moisture.

And this funneling effect to the moisture looks like will stay with us through the first half of your Memorial Day weekend so be prepared for some occasional showers in the south and southeast.
