  1. This may have fulfilled the tornado report quota for one storm
  2. For those interested in severe weather, you may be fascinated by this recent Youtube video about events in April 2022
  3. Hey, I posted that on the 20th, over in Central/Western states. Surprisingly, I'm not in -that- heat wave.
  4. this has got to have some impressive nighttime lightning and possibly 1" hail near the city of Fond Du Lac
  5. This supercell dropped 1.25" hail near Janesville Wisconsin
  6. that is a well developed rear-flank downdraft or hook echo, considering that's more typical for the Midwest
  7. high temperatures 6 to 10 degrees above normal for a week (although mean temperatures were less above normal)
  8. There have been a few tornado warnings today in Michigan and Ohio, and also some severe warned storms in Ontario. This may have been a real tornado, east-southeast of Mansfield. (report of a tree down at this location.)
  9. when Reed Timmer tweets about your area.
  10. legitimately 101 degrees to 105 degrees in and near Loveland (July 9) Boulder and Fort Collins-CSU stations had a high of 99, both are records Today (July 10) is already 90 at Cheyenne and 98 at Denver, DIA.
  11. heat index of 116 at Shreveport with 104/73, and 117 at Texarkana with 107/70, Camden Arkansas, heat index of 126 with 99/82
  12. edit: Fort Collins-CSU has broken their record of 97 degrees. Boulder most likely broke their record of 99 degrees.
  13. this is 21 miles NE of Cincinnati downtown more spread-out debris signature a few minutes later
  14. Mitchell SD had max wind gust 65 kt (74.7 mph) possible tornado at Salem SD
  15. Here is a picture of the sunset before the fireworks. There was not really much rain going on in the whole area at this time. I saw a couple of distant flashes of lightning while I was trying to watch fireworks.
  16. this large storm has already produced 90mph wind gusts at 16:26z
  17. There's a soupy 84 degree dew point at Denison Iowa right now. I think it's tied for the highest (USA) dew point I've seen on a weather map, ever. Le Mars Iowa says dew point of 91 but I honestly believe this is an error. In fact, Le Mars 99/91 would result in a heat index of 149.9 if it were true. Le Mars has had a really screwed up weather sensor with temp of 138, dew of 138, H.I. of 613.
  18. I noticed that close to midnight for me (1:00AM central time) and I was pretty surprised this was not associated with a notable individual cell. There must be some damage around US-34 on the edge of the city of Grand Island, and perhaps tracked northeastward for over 1 mile. I usually look at the Day-1 outlook issued at 06z (midnight for me) so I was looking at radar.
  19. the Southwestern states, partially covered with thick clouds and rain today two views of this month's precipitation
  20. apparently my area got some rain at midnight to 2:00AM without thunder The northeast Texas panhandle went from 100 degrees to 58 degrees in under 24 hours with this cold front and is still just at 61 degrees this afternoon. (station: HHF)
  21. I wonder what's the hottest possible Stanley Cup combination of cities, including one city from the Western Conference and one city from the Eastern Conference. On average, Stanley Cup final games occur on about June 1st-7th, unlike this year. It is difficult to keep the ice in perfect condition at this time of the year with outside temperatures of 80 or 90 with higher humidity in many areas outside of the desert. Maybe the hottest combination could be Phoenix and Miami. Then, Las Vegas and Tampa are also quite similar. Dallas is a possibility, but I think that Las Vegas and Phoenix average hotter high temperatures on June 7th. When Dallas played Tampa, it was the end of September 2020, so that is certainly not time of the year with the greatest temperature.
