I thought about you and Diane when we drove through. Big craft fair in N. Conway.

Great to hear. We really killed it here with a complete 0.1" downpour. Next system looks a bit better but honestly I like the small systems for my area as these bigger ones tend to split particularly for MBY. Might head out to west side of the state tomorrow afternoon, as I think it will do better.

It is quite hot here. Today we hit 99. Dews were as high as 79. At times, heat indices were up in the low 110s. This is kind of early for this kind of heat/ humidity.

Here's a non-confirmed tornado warning in North Texas, but not too close to Dallas/Fort Worth area.

La Nina is coming in real nicely on CDC daily composites. Starting east-based like the last few we've had since 2000. https://freeimage.host/i/JLxCQov

It will definitely be better than this past ratter of a winter.

Cold summers following El Niño winters are just very rare like 1992 (due to the 1991 Pinatubo eruption), 2003, 1969, or 1958. None of those cold summers after El Niño winters were followed by a La Niña winter. Each of those cold summers were either followed by a Neutral winter or a 2nd-year El Niño winter.

Pouring now with a bit of thunder and lightning

Another thunderstorm here late this afternoon. Only light rainfall (~0.10”).

Went right by me! 33F for a low this morning but no damage to plants

SPC likes big winds for us

Camp Hill got 0.4". Where I was at in Perry county 2". I swear the mountains must flood for lots of areas in true south central Pennsylvania to get normal rain Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Provided there's not much cloud cover for once, DFW has a shot at its first 100*F high of the season tomorrow.

I’m didn’t know there was a whole thread! I was positing in DISCOBS. I left Alexandria at 11 pm this night and drove nearly 250 miles round trip. Weather was actually worse in Shenandoah from 1-4 am. It wasn’t until on my way home passing back over the blue ridge that the skies cleared and I saw the aurora over Leesburg. .

Overturned environment. Big blob of meager low level lapse rates.

For those who love the indices, this is spectacular

any idea why this cell, among others, are dying as soon as they get into the OKC area?
