    Yeah. While the weather has been pleasant and excellent for the garden, it's tough to watch our peak storm month waste away.

    Well, so much for that. The severe potential has been shifted south and west. We've been downgraded.

    Tuesday evening looks pretty active over here. We're in the enhanced area now, but Des Moines thinks a further upgrade is possible.

    There is a strong tornado on ground just sw of Iowa City. KGAN has their chaser live right next to it, live on air. This is awesome.

    12z Euro - Friday & Saturday highs Friday Saturday

    A hail core passed just south of Cedar Rapids. I received a bit of heavy rain, but no hail.
  7. hawkeye_wx
    There have been several nickel-size hail reports so far. Cedar Rapids was just put in a warning for the cell approaching from the sw.

    Two runs in a row the euro has shown another upper midwest bomb cyclone at day 8/9.

    I would LOVE to watch a couple feet of large, wet flakes dump on my yard in mid April. Then, I'd want it gone in 24 hours.

    The euro has been teasing and continues to tease a big snowstorm next week.
  11. hawkeye_wx
    It's the new GFS.

    Anyone know what kind of building code they have in the Marianas?

    Trami was an awesome super typhoon, but once it stalled it didn't take long for the upwelled cool water to hollow out the core.

    That's some pretty awesome stuff you guys are reporting/photographing. Half those rates/totals would be a dream storm here in Iowa. Around here, >foot totals are next to impossible and even ten-inch storms are rare. Four inches counts as a good storm. It's the ultimate nickel-dimer climate. OceanStWx used to work here at DVN, so he knows how pathetic this area can be.

    The last four runs of the Euro are showing something interesting in the 6-10 day period... possible tropical storm or typhoon formation in the Gulf of Thailand.

    A system is developing in the Bay of Bengal. Models have a solid cyclone lifting northward into Bangladesh or western Myanmar Tuesday.

    It appears another eyewall replacement cycle may be on the way. Satellite shows the eye steadily shrinking over the last few hours, and a microwave image from an hour ago shows a distinct outer band.

    Josh (iCyclone) is headed to the Philippines to chase Haima. The eastern coastal region of Luzon is nothing but mountains and dense rain forest, though, so not ideal for chasing.
  19. hawkeye_wx
    That was a very smooth eyewall replacement cycle. It reminds me of Katrina's ERC.
  20. hawkeye_wx
    Satellite suggests, and microwave confirms, a concentric eyewall structure.

    The current westpac pattern is highly favorable for strong, lower latitude, west-tracking typhoons. Luzon is going to have a rough week, as may the Hainan to Hong Kong region. Cat 3 typhoon Sarika is hitting today. As the above image shows, the next one could be worse.

    It looked like it may have plateaued yesterday, but, wow, it has turned it up another gear over the last twelve hours. We just don't see many like this.
  23. hawkeye_wx
    Meranti just accomplished this in only 24 hours. It's always very impressive to watch cyclones explode like this.
  24. hawkeye_wx
    Meranti has prime conditions now and is showing it. This one is going to be a real beauty over open water the next few days.

    I think it's fair to say the nwpac basin is a bit more moist than the Atlantic.
