Stormy Days Ahead for Central Plains and Northwest 05-14 to 05-16

Updated Thu May 14th 2026, 4:36am PDT

We're looking at some stormy weather over the next few days, particularly in the Central Plains and Pacific Northwest regions. There's a chance for severe thunderstorms in the Central Plains on both Thursday and Friday, while the Pacific Northwest can expect a mix of rain and snow through Saturday. If you're in these areas, keep an eye on the skies and prepare for the weather changes. Let's break it down:

Thursday:

Central Plains: A cold front is pushing east, bringing severe thunderstorms. Be ready for strong winds, hail, and possibly tornadoes. These storms will be particularly active through the day.

Northeast: As a front moves off the Eastern Seaboard, expect rain and thunderstorms through Friday morning.

Pacific Northwest: A mix of rain and higher elevation snow will continue as a front works its way through. This is due to the moist air being pushed inland by the front.

Friday:

Central Plains/Middle Mississippi Valley: The severe weather threat continues with thunderstorms that could bring strong winds, hail, and a small chance of tornadoes.

Northeast: The rain should clear as the low-pressure system moves into the Atlantic.

Pacific Northwest: Rain and snow at higher elevations continue through Saturday.
