outflow

Pouring snow right now flake size very respectable as well. There could be some lake enhancement from the east wind of Huron ongoing but regardless so far piling up pretty good. No idea of an accurate measument with the wind but I would say around 5 inches. If the low moves south of my local and we stay in the pivot I could see making a run at 10.

Will change a lot im sure but the euro sure has an ice storm type look with a strong occluding low to the west and cold high pressure building in from the north in the 7 to 9 day range

And says let's do it again 3 days later

With the lack of vegetation in the winter, especially leaves on trees, to impead and dampen the sound shouldn't thunder be heard better in the cold season vs warm?

Two days later and all bombs cancelled. Talk about big swings.....and misses

Marquette back at 0 with today's watch. The streak of the lack of severe weather in lower mi is really quite remarkable

With the ground being so dry barren and hard during those years I wonder if it acted almost like asphalt and retained the heat longer allowing for the warmer lows? Just like a natural heat island effect but on a huge scale.

It would be really something if dtx and grr could break the tornado watch drought thanks to a remnent tropical storm on may 30th of all things

the good thing is the chances of schools getting hit with students still inside is somewhat tempered by most schools having hours of 7am-3pm or so, there really is only a short overlap between when students get out and when tornado ocrruences start to increase as afternoon heating can occur. of course , there is the threat of tornadoes hitting large amounts of buses as schools lets out, as i think happened in oak lawn Ill in the 60s. I still think the biggest loss of life threat comes with a sporting event being hit by a large tornado. Just as an example, say you have 80,0000 people at a nascar event in kansas or texas, thats people spread out in the open over a 2-3 mile area, plus 1000s of people camping in the infield, plus that many crewmen, reporters, etc. Where do you put all these people in 20 mintues if a tornado is coming at that? this is where you could see deaths approaching 1000

the still reminds me of the video from the louisville tornado during the super outbreak
