Central/Northern Plains Short-Term Update: Latest on heavy rainfall risks through the weekend into early next week.

Synopsis:  Good Saturday afternoon.  A stalled frontal boundary slicing the northern and western Plains is setting up quite the gradient in weather conditions…from sun and heat further south and east, to rain and sharply cooler temperatures behind the front.  This front will slowly make some eastward progression over the next few days, with the heavy rainfall threat continuing through Tuesday.  Latest on timing/coverage and rainfall amounts in the video below.  Have a great afternoon, and let us know if you have any questions!
