(The Weather Channel) 1928 - A farmer near Greensburg, KS, looked up into the heart of a tornado. He described its walls as rotating clouds lit with constant flashes of lightning and a strong gassy odor with a screaming, hissing sound . (The Weather Channel) 1964 - A squall line producing large hail swept through central Illinois. A second squall line moved through during the early morning hours of the 21st, and a third one moved through shortly after dawn. The series of hailstorms caused nine million dollars damage. Hailstones as large as grapefruit caused heavy damage to trees, utility lines, crops and buildings. The thunderstorms also produced as much as five inches of rain in an eight hour period. (David Ludlum) 1987 - Thunderstorms prevailed east of the Rockies, producing severe weather in the Central High Plains Region. Thunderstorms spawned four tornadoes in Colorado, and produced wind gusts to 70 mph at Goodland, KS. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1988 - Thirty-eight cities in the central U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date. Afternoon highs of 97 degrees at Flint, MI, and 104 degrees at Chicago, IL, equalled records for the month of June. Thunderstorms in North Dakota produced baseball size hail near Kief, and wind gusts to 100 mph near McGregor. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary) 1989 - An early morning thunderstorm produced wind gusts to 61 mph at Pierre, SD, and the hot thunderstorm winds raised the temperature from 86 degrees at midnight to 96 degrees by 1 AM, and 104 degrees by 2 AM. Butte, MT, and Yellowstone Park, WY, reported snow that afternoon. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 2001: Large hail driven by strong thunderstorm winds raked Denver International and front-range airports. Wind gusting to 54 mph along with hail as large as 2 inches in diameter punched at least 14 thousand holes and cracks in the flat roofs of several buildings at Denver International Airport. Also, 93 planes and hundreds of cars were damaged. About 100 flights had to be canceled stranding 1500 travelers. The Airport was completely shut down for about 20 minutes. The storm also damaged ground avoidance radar used to track planes on the ground to prevent collisions. Damage was estimated at 10 million dollars not counting the cost to the 93 airliners. The storm moved south and struck Watkins Colorado with hail as large as 2 1/2 inches in diameter and winds gusting to 60 mph.

    67/59 and mostly cloudy. Cooler NE/ENE flow the next 2 days. Capped in the 70s today and Wed (6/21) but mainly dry. Thu (6/22) begins a transition to a much more humid and wetter 9 days as southerly flow envelops the area as we transition from the marine (So Cal style) influenced pattern to a more tropical one. The next deluge to end a dry period is likely set to deliver >2 - 3 inches of rainfall area wide with spots of >5 or 6 inches of rain where the slow moving training storm develop. The period looks cloudy but warm southerly flow can create warm to hot periods where and when there are breaks of sun. But a very much different period from the vey sunny May incoming. Beyond there, As the trough and ULL lift out the EC by the end of the month, there is potential for a day or two of heat. The next month opens with trough into the GL and warm southerly flow - should the flow flatten with help from Western Atl Ridge expanding west, then a much warmer to hot pattern can develop. The tendency for weakness under the ridge has been persistent (2013 was similar) 2003 as well. Overall wetter and near normal / humid. https://cdn.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES16/ABI/GIFS/GOES16-NE-GEOCOLOR-600x600.gif

The tornado traveled through Poughkeepsie then crossed the border into Connecticut where it went through the towns of New Milford, Waterbury, North Haven, and Branford. It then continued into Long Island Sound. The tornado did extensive damage, and the funnel was reported by one observer to look like the "aurora borealis." 1835 - A tornado tore through the center of New Brunswick NJ killing five persons and scattering debris as far as Manhattan Island. The tornado provided the first opportunity for scientists to study firsthand the track of such a storm. (David Ludlum) 1938 - A cloudburst near Custer Creek, MT, (near Miles City) caused a train wreck killing forty-eight persons. An estimated four to seven inches of rain deluged the head of the creek that evening, and water flowing through the creek weakened the bridge. As a result, a locomotive and seven passenger cars plunged into the swollen creek. One car, a tourist sleeper, was completely submerged. (David Ludlum) 1972 - Hurricane Agnes moved onshore near Cape San Blas FL with wind gusts to 80 mph, and exited Maine on the 26th.

(The National Weather Summary) 1990 - What would eventually be known as the "Inland Hurricane" stuck south central Kansas. This storm system produced a swath of 65 to 120 mph winds across six counties and caused $80 million dollars in damage. The peak recorded wind gust was 116 mph, which reaches low-end category 3 on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane wind intensity scale. On the enhanced Fujita Scale the 116mph winds would be rated an EF2. The storm knocked out power to all the Wichita TV stations, and they were off the air for hours. All but one of the Wichita Radio Stations, including the Wichita NOAA Weather Radio Station KEC-59, was knocked off the air. (National Weather Service Wichita) 2006 - Up to 11 inches of rain fell in the Houston, Texas area, causing widespread flash flooding. The Houston Fire Department rescued more than 500 people from flood waters, but no serious injuries or fatalities were reported.

    72/60 and mostly sunny. Likely the sunniest / driest day in the next 8 or 9. Low mid 80s. Clouds and some spotty showers Tue (6/20) and Wed (6/21) should keep temps in the 70s. Ridge builds from Southern Plains /TX into the Gl and southern Canada and weakness closes off into the Carolinas. A strong onshore flow develops Tue - Thu (6/22)Maritime (June gloom). Fri (6/23) - Thu (6/29) transition from our Southern California climate to a more humid as flow goes southerly and daily chances of popup (slow moving ) storms. As a whole the 7 days should get the are upwards of 2 inches of rain but areas with drenchers could exceed 4 inches. When the sun pop out it heats up quickly with 850s > 16C and southerly flow. Beyond there front looks to clear by the end of the month and bring in the warmer /hotter weather to open the month. Tendency for troughing into the east till then as the Western Atlantic Ridge builds west. Do we have a 2006, 2012 / 2013 style summer shaping up? https://cdn.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES16/ABI/SECTOR/eus/02/GOES16-EUS-02-1000x1000.gif

    70 / 47 and mostly sunny. A great fathers day shaping up low / mid 80s and dry. Mon (6/19) similar to today mainly sunny and low 80s. Tue (6/20) / Wed (6/21) some scattered storms / showers and clouds hanging by as cut off into VA/NC sets up easterly flow with ridge pumping from the Rockies into the Plains and southern Canada. By Thu (6/22) and Fri (6/23) cooler with ENE flow and continued chance of showers. By next weekend the flow is going more southerly with much more humid weather and storm chances. Flow keeps it warm but limits heat. A more westerly component should allow for next 1 - 2 het spike 24th-25th. Front comes through by the 26th Beyond there trough looking to dig into the GL/OV with warm SW flow into the area. We'll have to see if the W. atl Ridge expands west to open the month. Overall warmer transition and we'll see when pieces of the Rockies/TX / Southern Plain heat push east.

    63 / 57 and a little breezy. Looks like another fabulous summer day / weekend overall as ULL tracks well north and east. Perhaps some stray showers and afternoon clouds in eastern sections . upper 70s near 80 today (some low 80s in the warmer sunnier spots). Fathers day looks marvelous sunny / dry and low 80s (mid 80s in the warmer spots). 6/19 - 6/26 Cut off down into the Carolinas / South (reminiscent of Memorial Day Weekend) looks to keep much of the rain and clouds south / well south of the region as we repeat the pattern of weakness under the ridge forcing generally onshore ENE / E flow. The flow does spin around to a warmer W /NW later this week which could push temps into the mid / upper 80s Thu (6/22) and Fri (6/23). Rockies ridge pushing heat into the Souther plains texas and up into Canada. By next weekend a more southerly flow should introduce clouds, humidity and storms chances. Beyond there to close the month we are looking for heat to spread down and the next trough to back and cut off into the GL/OV (ala early /mid June). This should allow a much warmer to hot finish to the month. Way beyond - the Western Atlantic Ridge is pushing west and perhaps a more humid / summery pattern to open the month.

This tornado developed about 6 miles southwest of the town of Pilger and moved northeast, directly striking the city. Initially narrow and relatively weak, the tornado significantly intensified as it neared the Elkhorn River and moved into town. The tornado cut a path through town, destroying numerous homes and businesses. The tornado was responsible for 1 fatality in the town of Pilger and several injuries before moving northeast and weakening. During a weakening period, the tornado again intensified, producing additional violent damage 4 miles northeast of Pilger. Finally, the tornado narrowed, weakened, and turned east, wrapping around the developing Wakefield tornado before dissipating. Click HERE for more information from the NWS Office in Omaha, Nebraska.

    74 / 56 Partly sunny but that will be fleeting as clouds and showers are approaching out of EPA. Scattered storms some strong (plenty of details and discussion). Sat looking better but we will have some lingering clouds and scattered showers. Fathers Day (6/18) look amazing near 80 / low 80s. As the ridge and heat build and expand out of the Rockies / southern Plains / TX into the GL and EC, trough backs in and cuts off below into the VA/ Carolinas. Starting to see a more similar progression as we did Memorial Day where we have strong onshore to keep heat west and north of us, but latest guidance (and we'll have to track trends) keeps bulk of the rain south of us. Id still go near / below normal and rain chance 6/19 - 6/26 but tendecies could keep us shielded. Beyond there ridge and heights build into east and flow comes around to the south/ south west with next warm and heat potential to close the month. Western Atlantic Ridge may come west to open the month. Both ECM and GFS have tropical lows in the way out there but more to come. https://cdn.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES16/ABI/GIFS/GOES16-NE-GEOCOLOR-600x600.gif

    70/ 53 and mostly sunny. Another fabulous day on tap. Near / low 80s and mostly sunny / breezy. ULL spins around and brings the next (repeat of wed) chance of storms Fri (6/16) and lingering Sat (6/17). Fathers Day looking very nice to split the weekend with (repeat of Tue/Thu) near / 80s and sunny. Building ridge in the Rockies / Southern Plains builds east and into Southern Canada. A weakness under the ridge closes off in the W VA/ Carolina area 6/19 - 626. Onshore flow - how long will it go. With low a bit north of where it was memorial Day weekend means clouds and showers nearby in the period especially in southern NJ. Winds will eventually shift southerly mid/late next week and more widespread rain as the low eventually lifts north and out. Could see totals 2- 4 inches over the 7 day period or more where storms are stongest and slowest. Clos of the month heat heads south into the area. We'll see f the W/ Atlantic Ridge shoves west and more persistent warmth comes to open the month.

    72/60 and mostly sunny (for now) as clouds and showers are to the EPA border. Showers some storms this morning into the afternoon. Clouds and rain should cap temps in the md 70s. Thu (6/15) a warmer redo of Tue , mostly sunny and stunning near / low 80s. Fri (6/16) a redo of today perhaps a bit more widespread showers and storms as the ULL moves through Upstate NY into SNE. Storms and clouds stubborn and lingering into the split of the weekend with most of Sat cloudy with showers / storms. Probably some breaks in the clouds at times but not a great day. Fathers day looking dry and very pleasant near 80 / low 80s. 6/19 - 6/26 Ridge and heat continues to build into the Rockies, TX / Southern Plains, as the ridge builds and heat pushes over the north into Southern Canada, a cut off trough into the W Carolinas/VA pushes an onshore flow into the area. This is more reminiscent of Memorial day low a bit north. So clouds and showers are closer by especially southern sections but some nicer / drier days in between. The brunt of the rain axis looks south into VA/NC/MD. We'll see. The Southern Cali pattern continues but have seen similar Junes progress this way with big heat into Canada before building down and then the W/ Atlantic Ridge builds west, Beyond, as this cut off and associated lows lifts out and the flow comes around to the N/NW heat into Southern Canada could setup the next warm period to close the month. We'll see if the tendency is to cut off another trough into the Northeast. But overall a warmer look as there isn't much cool air around outside the onshore flow. spinning wheel.
