Tornado warning for Cincy.

Extremely nasty cell just passed through Lenoir. Quite a bit of hail and strong winds.

I don't think the hideous creatures mind cold. I concluded this after years of visiting the North Country where the mosquitoes are more plentiful/annoying than here. Sorry, I don't have an explanation either. (This statement is not meant to diminish my sympathy. You are not alone. )

Augdewst 2026: Summer's Last Stand
vortex95 replied to Prismshine Productions's topic in New England
Yes, nice center point, and MPV airport is 1166 ft. I think one reason why it was farther W to have coverage in Upstate NY, which is part of the BTV CWA. Fortunately, the Canadian radars that were upgraded to Doppler last decade help a *lot* for NNE! On another note, today EC starts targeted (polygon-based) svr/tor warnings. https://dd.meteo.gc.ca/doc/genots/2026/08/03/NOCN04_CWAO_031225___62572 -
We have had a large amount of those "piss ants" in our kitchen since Spring. One day we wake up and find less than 10 the next day about 100. We cleared out the back of our house and found thy may have been living in where we keep our garden hose. We moved that and sprayed under the siding and it seemed to kill down about 75% of the issue. We are still getting them in the kitchen. Think that's just what's left over, or I wonder if there is another colony somewhere I haven't looked. Any ideas to keep them away?

Hazy, hot, and humid. Currently 95/82 for a feels like of 119.

Why are the mosquitoes so bad this year? It's the worst year in the past 24yrs I've lived here. It makes no sense, we had drought last year, the coldest winter in decades and then more drought this year up until just recently. I'm lucky in that I don't get actual itchy bites, but they're annoying as heck to swat off.

Yesterdays wind reports?...wow. You'd think it was a bona fide derecho! It wasn't, but the MCS areal coverage was very impressive NE to SW PA to VA. Also, the classic DC split occurred, at least for CGs. Take a look at the plot from later ydy. There was an uptick on CGs in downtown Silver Spring after the line moved through N side of the city. Saw some good CGs and heard some solid booming thunders to my S.

So far im pretty happy with this Kremer fella on the Twins. Two quality starts in the books

Yeah I would expect an EDS warning over a big tornado warning like that. Heavy rain here and maybe 55 mph wind thankfully. Lots of lightning.

2026-2027 Record-breaking El Nino
bluewave replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
The 500 mb pattern during June and July across the Northern Hemisphere was the opposite of past developing super El Niño events. -
It's worse to our west (like WV). At least some sunshine has rebounded CAPE above 1000 in the metros seemingly. But still probably isn't going to do much. WV is devoid completely of CAPE

Occasional Thoughts on Climate Change
WolfStock1 replied to donsutherland1's topic in Climate Change
Re: Putin and Trump - that's politics, not science. Re: Observatories - these have *always* been in place high in the mountains, since long before CC became a thing. E.g. Mauna Kean in 1901, Kitt Peak in 1960, etc. Mountain air has *always* been known to be cleaner/clearer than seaside air since the beginning of time, and that has nothing to with CC. It's basic physics / meteorology, as well as where people live. It's actually the opposite of of what you claim - the reason why mountain air is so clear is ironically *because* for most people it's more desirable to live on the coast. So - perhaps try again with your reasoning. -

2026-2027 Record-breaking El Nino
LakePaste25 replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
Much of this depends on how much ocean heat is lost from the El Niño convection that’s occurring. In theory we run out of warm water to sustain El Niño in such conditions. It has to come from somewhere. -
Unsure how much TS we see, not impressed with the instability and the front is still back north...so far the few cells that went off made the mid 20s on tops but collapsed

PhiEaglesfan712 replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
This is how the carry-over el nino scenario would look like. This is actually an AI model that (correctly) predicted this very strong el nino. This shows a carry-over (moderate) el nino in 2027-28, before transitioning to a la nina in 2028-29. -
and pop up showers are starting to show up on radar

CoastalWx replied to Prismshine Productions's topic in New England
Yeah this region is not exciting in the summer. It’s why rooting for storms is a fools errand unless the setup is jsut right.
