  1. This is west of Rockford and northeast of Davenport. I am not sure if these rotation area(s) are a tornado or not.
  2. There's a new storm with up to 1" hail heading for downtown Denver.
  3. possible tornado near Colorado Springs/ Palmer Divide
  4. Interesting note for Raindancewx: Go look up this 1 hour long video of the sun. This video should have enough info to show nearly one complete cycle of sunspots. NASA released a truly epic video on Wednesday that compiles 10 years of the Solar Dynamics Observatory's views of our star.
  5. I think there's a possibility for a damaging squall line in SW Michigan. This model run is not really an outlier or anything like that.
  6. So, how do the 00z model runs change the outlook significantly?
  7. My area had a brief rain shower last night, and today, we had a couple of thunderstorms (no hail.) Tomorrow, the Front Range may see some more areas of thunderstorms, with large hail as a possibility. It is nice that it's not totally dry recently. At least my area is getting close to average for rainfall, with, probably at least 1.52" for the month.
  8. This squall line has already produced several severe wind reports in the last hour, and intensify to produce many more severe wind reports.
  9. possible 2-3" hail with increasing rotation northeast of Great Bend, KS
  10. Up to 7000 J/kg today, and it's only 1:00PM Central
  11. I am a little surprised that they upgraded to moderate risk today (wind, hail only)
  12. Many areas around DFW got around 2" of rain, but some storm cells must have sat over Dallas for a long time.
  13. One Arizona wildfire has grown to 151,000 acres at the same time a COVID-19 troubles.
  14. I was looking at the radar for a thunderstorm in Amarillo, and then I came upon something I hadn't thought about for a long time. Coming from the north, US-87/287 splits into two streets southbound, two streets northbound. It then combines into a single street that is US-87. Then US-87/I-27 goes to the south of town, but US-287 goes east, after combining with I-40 at the large interchange. US-287 then splits away from I-40.
  15. Sunset last night was a little red, possibly due to forest fires in Arizona.
  16. A couple of days ago, I was going to post about how hot it is going to be. Today, I found some GEFS runs that show a cool and wet period coming up. So maybe this could be a nice (short) period of drought relief for CO/KS, possibly NM and WY. The way things are going, it is going to take many months to get out of the drought in southern Colorado.
  17. By the way, it snowed yesterday, north of Lake Superior
  18. This happened a few hours ago at Sandusky, OH. It must have been something like a 100mph wind to break through bricks. source: https://www.wkyc.com/article/weather/severe-weather/look-storms-severely-damage-sandusky-state-theater/95-6e570ecd-3488-4c91-9aa0-af4fe5c48682
  19. Possible tornado in Ohio, about 25 miles northeast of Ashland, Kentucky. (Ohio River valley.)
  20. 1" hail reported somewhere near downtown Detroit.
  21. This cell produced 2" hail at Bryan, OH. That's gotta shred some soybeans.
  22. It kind of looks like a supercell is developing near Defiance, OH. Weak rotation at this time.
  23. My parents texted me and said it was 97 degrees in Toledo. Maximum temperatures (Mesowest plot)
  24. Nearly all convection-allowing models produce helicity tracks through MI, IN, and OH tomorrow. 0-6km shear should be 40kt- 50kt throughout the region of the cold front.
