My contribution to the complaint thread. Aside from the one week torch this year, April has been dominated by cutoff lows for the past several years in our sub-forum. This sucks.
I didn't see or hear anything, but there were hundreds of reports all across Indiana. The link you posted has been updated (at the end) to include a security video of a meteor. I'd say mystery solved.
That's okay if you are the only one posting about this. Even though,the flooding will be destructive, it is fascinating to read about. Please continue to update.
I'd vote for option 2 and let 'em come to you. (Well, maybe a short trip just to get into a good position based on radar so you can wave at them as they scream by.)
I know for a fact that the NWS appreciates the real time reports. My Skywarn team and I have been thanked many times over the years for the ground truth reports.
Woke up to a surprise inch of snow this morning. It was a surprise to everyone, including me, NWS, INDOT, and the driving public as there have been many accidents along the local interstate.
You're right, but that's gonna change real soon. I would want those positive anomalies at the end of the month and the negatives ones during the first 10 days of the month.
