  1. At Anchorage Alaska Airport they measured 24" of snow on the ground. That is day 130 in a row of 20" or more on the ground. They will probably get a few more days. Previous record was 113 in 2004. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  2. Don't they usually go hand in hand in Spring? Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  3. Are they safe Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  4. Not the right months but in 1966 we had this for May thru August May: 0.98" June: 0.07" July: 0.81" Aug: 1.53" Total:. 3.39" Now I know we how we are currently, but just imagine going through the heart of summer with those rain totals. The mean monthly hi temperature May: 72.9 June: 87.7 July 93.2 Aug: 89.7 Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  5. Like the tale of the Edmund Fitzgerald, this needs put to music Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  6. It's either his hotbox or his gales Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  7. He managed to get his sensors right in the tornado. You know it's bad when he just throws it out there they aren't in a great spot and starts telling everyone to put in seatbelts. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  8. The thing was also so close to a couple radar stations that the amount of low level radar data available is a jackpot for scientists. Truthfully I'm amazed no storm chasers met their end with how many love to get north of these type of tornados it's deviant motions it had all evening. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  9. The one was 1/2 mile back in Cole, but it kept handing off. With the one merger there were 3 separate circulations, likely all on the ground pinwalling around each other. The storm probably has 5-10 separate tornados during its life. I spent way to many hours last night watching this in amazement. I remember the one met saying that this one supercell is going to break records for thesis and disertations due to its textbook at times, but uniquely complicated life cycle.

  10. As long as we can get plenty of rain I'm good. Being bone dry and 50 day after day seems hard this time of year Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  11. On my extended forecast for Sunday through Saturday all my highs are between 61-69 with only 2 in 61-63 range, the rest above. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  12. Shawnee is now in cross hairs Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  13. Some warnings say westward movement, some south, some north Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  14. Now it appears a large oil tank farm was hit by one of the circulations, followed by lightning and exploded Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  15. It's not everyday you get to this a triple fuijiwhara of mesos with tornados in one storm Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  16. 2 tornados now Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  17. Reeds stream was nuts when after he deployed the sensors the erratic movement put him far too close to the multiple vortices whipping around and a rear inflow jet pushing 100mph Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  18. It just keeps cycling and handing off south east after the previous cirreculation makes sharp turn north before occluding. The structures match the hodographs from special balloon lunch perfectly. At one point meso had 3 distrinct circulations at once, similar to el Reno. This one storm is going to appear in a lot of future papers. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  19. Those super cells by Norman were nuts tonight Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  20. If my memory is correct they did a relanaysis of it based on stream gauges at the time and estimated the hills just east of town received upwards of 40" in under 6hours. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  21. Smethport, pa July 1942. There are a few others like this roughly once ever 20 years. I believe last one was 1995 Madison county. These happen. They have been happening for awhile. It may just be how they analyse recurrence intervals in a specified area. But a 1000 year recurrence intervals is just bad wording. I'm sure if we had data for multiple locations within a specified grid for many thousands of years the smoothed probability distributions for entire region would be more similar to the models. But at no point do those graphs actually state that is the atmospheric maximum for such location. Because a podoke mountain town in north central pa had more rain than this in I believe less time, back in 1942. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

  23. This graph is from a meteorology student doing thesis work on extreme rainfall events. It's from the famous smethport, Pa 1942 event. The lines are recurrence intervals based on hydrology studies that are done for all the United States. The red dot is the observed event. There seems to be a major disconnect in exponential orders of magnitude. I'm sure part of the issue are standard fat-tail events are weird and smoothing for all points within a specified grid. But my lord, the upper bounds for what can happen at any one point in an area are off the charts compared to our models. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
