  1. This is a nice day here, finally. Meanwhile,my old home of Fort Collins is getting snow. (29 degrees in the south Denver metro.) This La Nina spring is really making the cold air troughs dig in to various regions. No wonder they say La Nina springs have more tornadoes. Things are nuts. Look at this huge trough out west, with 500mb winds flowing from the Northwest Territories to Utah.
  2. tornado emergency earlier near Coburg/Essex IA debris up to 20000ft?
  3. GFS has 8" of snow for Boulder this week. NWS has 0.6"-1.1" of QPF for the area (5 days)
  4. I was going to say that I haven't seen 77 this early in Wyoming, but I guess the record of 80 is from two years ago.
  5. New convective chronicles video The outbreak of April 11, 1965, could have killed my mom and dad, in different cities, in different counties, but didn't. I think the elevated mixed layer is visible on this sounding from Peoria IL from the morning of April 11 1965
  6. The end of winter. The snow-water equivalent is now going down for almost all areas. Who got the best snow? This plot doesn't say, but it implies there was a big north/south divide around the CO/NM border. La Nina winters typically don't have too much precip for AZ/NM. And of course, intense dryness preceded the Los Angeles fires, which was kind of like a hurricane worth of damage there.
  7. My friend once proposed setting up a myriad of large concrete structures at the OH/IN border, possibly with spiral structure, to make tornadoes lose their spin as they cross into Ohio. New Mexico is expected to get up to 5.5" of snow in lower elevations in the plains.
  8. new 3-D view of Arkansas, I believe Star City had a tornado warning last night (this is a severe warning)
  9. so you guys were trying to highlight this? low topped rotating cell, while it is snowing in Denver
  10. On the IWX web site, they have confirmed a tornado at Bourbon, Indiana (not near Ohio) that was EF-1, 17 miles. That was close to a family member of mine.
  11. large supercell that is near Memphis
  12. two more tornado warnings in TN confirmed tornado
  13. large severe warned supercell by Franklin, TN (hail) edit: tornado warning just issued
  14. All these tornado warnings, and there's three more days of outlooks (enhanced tonight, moderate tomorrow, enhanced Saturday)
  15. radar velocity is off the chart. The debris signature was about 2.6 miles wide near Monette
  16. Ryan Hall chasers showing large tornado on camera at Bay, Arkansas
  17. 22 total tornado warnings, (Indiana, Wisconsin ones not shown)
  18. by the way, my place had something like 1" of rain in 2 hours this morning with lots of loud thunder, cold weather, elevated instability
  19. possible tornado by Moscow, Tennessee. (Moscow Russia shouldn't have severe probabilities tonight)
