  1. One of my family members had to go to the basement.
  2. Toledo got 1.57" today with frequent lightning at times. I think I saw some small hail, but it didn't cover the ground much.
  3. tornado warning 2 counties south of Fort Wayne. Most indicators say 2"-3" hail
  4. I would have thought there would be a bit more discussion of tornado warnings near STL. Otherwise, one tornado warning south of Fort Wayne right now.
  5. I think this was the highest of the measured wind speeds
  6. A few storms developing near Topeka's radar look like they could get going into supercell mode.
  7. The NWS has 1" to 1.5" QPF for most of the area, and currently the temperatures at 5000 ft could be 32-40 degrees as it is snowing, or raining, and 32-34 degrees late at night on Thursday morning. Certainly some version of a winter storm watch will be incoming.
  8. I wonder how much snow is just under the trees, just beyond the meadow.
  9. I'm sure there will be a lot to talk about in the future. The GFS has a shortwave with some snow at hour-108 and then there's more snow after that. The 500mb low will roll around the Four Corners area, I think. But like I say, that one is more than 100 hours in the future.
  10. clouds cleared off just for me, in March, with east wind. what is this madness?
  11. Friday night could have an enhanced risk for tornadoes
  12. Snow with a weak disturbance, with winter storm watches/winter weather advisories above 6000 ft
  13. Severe weather outlooks for this week: Honestly I'm not sure what so say regarding this. I don't think a lot will get going tomorrow in the daytime. There should be more severe activity popping up from 12z to 18z Friday, along with up to 65 kt of shear in Louisiana at that time. The GFS shows high storm relative helicity in Mississippi. This is a sounding near Biloxi for Friday with low-CAPE, high humidity
  14. another two tornado warnings (almost right at Cyclone77's place) and also an unwarned cell to the east
  15. I posted these images in the El Nino discussion. This shows the subtropical jet stream did most of what it was supposed to do. There are also some abnormally westerly winds near the equator, with a component of the wind transporting the moisture to California. (westerly winds at the equator should be happening in the West Pacific.)
  16. Washington state snow pack should be rather low in all aspects. As you can see, the southern snowpack values aren't too bad as El Nino normally favors the Southwest. These days we can say that the California jet stream is doing a good job at blasting warmer air in the middle of the country. A lot of the CO mountains should pick up some good snows from the westerly winds.
  17. local storm reports have 5" - 42" from Reno up to the Donner Summit.
