  1. Day-2 30% hail (hatched) outlook for the Twin Cities
  2. Fairbanks was warmer than my place The NWS issued a heat advisory for this, close to 80 near the Arctic Circle
  3. There's a interesting outflow boundary today in Texas. Some clear skies in the outflow, with scattered storms on the boundary.
  4. There has been a chill in the air. May anomalies at 850mb show an abnormal E-NE wind here, continuing through the Midwest. It hasn't been raining a whole lot here as of recently. No 90's and stuff
  5. This storm must have briefly had 1"-2" hail by Cheyenne and impressed storm chasers
  6. There aren't many recent storm reports going east of Dallas, as you said. It has finally gotten so late at night it is hitting a stable layer and the downdrafts aren't so bad (maybe.) Well anyway you tend to see the wind reports go away late at night with quite a few situations. Dallas KDAL airport got 1.69" in an hour. Some radar images for Dallas Dallas to Denton may have gotten 2.25" within the last 6 hours.
  7. Dallas is now in the middle of this PDS watch
  8. Huge reflectivity/velocity rotation with this storm at Rotan, Texas
  9. More than one three to four inch hail marker
  10. Right now some of the most dangerous storms are east of Lubbock and NW of Oklahoma City. I've really only heard of tornado(es) on the north side of the TX panhandle, nothing else
  11. This nearly maxes out reflectivity, tornado warning at this time
  12. This storm locally caused some damage west of Chicago and now looks like a supercell
  13. Yesterday was a significant (derecho?) severe weather day for AL/GA/SC. There were late night supercells producing wind damage in MS/AR, long after the squall line exited the area.
  14. The latest HRRR has a large heavy squall line heading towards Fort Worth tonight. I think these could be storms with a higher chance of wind damage. Parameters are going to be very high for supercells in the area where storm-relative helicity gets locally higer.
  15. An impressive supercell produced a few tornadoes from E New Mexico to the Lubbock area. Some tornadoes may have been large. It was heading toward Lubbock. I'm not sure if there was a tornado directly in the Lubbock area, but it seems likely that a tornado weakened as it came through Reese Center and towards town.
  16. two possible QLCS tornadoes near Moline, IL edit: new PDS warning extended through the Quad Cities
  17. It was in the 50's after the rainstorms hit in Fort Collins. That probably feels more like winter than summer. Clouds climbing the valley
  18. possible strong tornado in E Weld County (close to Wyoming. ) I wonder if any storm chasers went out from Fort Collins to see this
  19. Look at this. I haven't seen several 20's dew points in June, other than the high country, you know, high plains and Rockies, or behind the dryline with the continental tropical air. What we see here is from polar air.
  20. I am now smelling the wildfire gunk. Much like the smell of many times in Colorado.
  21. so, no tornadoes on SPC storm reports?
  22. tiny supercell with a tornado warning in the metro (also note tornado warning south of Richmond)
  23. the short term forecasts have at least 45 kt of shear (effective) over mid Virginia, so sure.
  24. HRRR for a few hours in the future
