Jelly, I'm just on the verge of some mod - heavy rains...again 3 out of the last 17 days have been partly sunny, that's okay. Nothing wrong with that at all.
-
I've been thinking recently I'd rather 100F highs than 34F highs every day like many days this winter featured. I've been in different hot climates that had humidity or dry heat around 100 and this is what I'd rather knowing the lifestyle. Not working in it though unless dawn/dusk.

I'm glad I haven't been visiting that site in a while

Severe Weather 4-25 through 4-28-23
Torchageddon replied to cheese007's topic in Central/Western States
This isn't for the 25th but this outlook is strange for today: Brownsville special. -
At various points heavy snow/rain showers with one in particular looking like a winter storm with the winds gusting. With a week like last you know something nasty is coming after. The storms I got yesterday (5th so far this year) were tame with 8 flashes of lightning, 13mm of rain which is about what TWN forecast. I've read somewhere else that Canadians tend to trust their precip amounts but not their temp forecasts. I tend to agree.

Station reached 30C, but likely due to the dry surroundings its too warm so I think 28C. 2nd day of blue skies no clouds at all - I realized this is the same as two months ago exactly. Awesome week.
-
Weirdly enough my low was back down to 6C like Weds but made up for it around 10-11am by jumping to 25C on my station; TWN had a 6C disparity (19C). I'm running 2C too warm typically. I was under an poor air quality advisory briefly then like that svr t-storm warning 10 days ago it was yanked fast also around 10am.
-
A humidex of 34 for Brampton, insane.
-
Overnight low much warmer: 13.4C compared to 6C yesterday. I reached 20C/68F at 9:40am which is impressive. I don't remember the mid-Apr 2016 event morning warmth to be this amazing. 23.5C currently! 12pm: 26C! Lets get some Apr 1-2 2010 vibes going.
-
Exceeded 23C and reached 27C/80F!! Gravy
-
From 7:35 am to 7:40 my station temp went up 2C. That might be the newest personal record for fastest 5 min obs increase. In about 1 hour I went up 8C. I wasn't supposed to get down to 6C overnight anyways so high is on track still. Looking forward to a top-tier April day that doesn't come along much.
-
Suppose to have a sunny afternoon but all these clouds started to descend from the north unexpectedly, sucks. There was even some light precip on the bruce peninsula. I'm not convinced its just the lakes causing it, from the ridge axis as well:
-
Reached 20C for the first time on my station! Relieved to be getting early summer wx after the nightmare March. TWN shows 19.
-
At 8.4C/7C when I was suppose to be nearly 14 by now just forecast 12 hours ago. How am I suppose to make it to 20C by 2pm with this again? Even better, my hourlies increased my temp high from 8 hours ago back to 19C now shown by 4pm lol. The 11am forecast would show me at 13C when clearly that's not happening.
-
Getting the 5th storm or more now, nothing wild just lightning with some CGs which is rare here. Still sitting at 8.4C but the T/dp spread is low (6C). I've never seen a setup like this in April here, one decent storm after another in succession with the atmosphere giving more than one might expect.
-
I don't know of anything off-hand from '67 but Mitchell is the tornado magnet of ON so its not surprising. I mention May 12, 2000 a lot for various reasons; namely it was a very extreme and unique system.
-
And I was taken completely out of the 10% tor hatched, I expected as much (now in 2%). Not impossible to get a strong twister here in early April but with this new climate its a crack dream. CAMs showing another round of storms at 8am, then a big line early afternoon. I'm getting more thunder and rain just off the heels of an impressive storm. The cold lake Huron did nothing to inhibit the first storm cluster. My DP is literally 2C, the heat is on, I'm cold, and there is convection erupting everywhere. Generally that doesn't happen.
-
Got an impressive t-storm considering I'm at 6C/1C 43F/34! Beats 70% of the storms I've had in the last 5 years. Blinding flashes and near house-rattlers at times. No hail or high winds though. It wasn't even the core of the leading cell. Reminds me a bit of Mar 13 2012 overnight storm with some tiny scraps of snow still on the ground.
-
TWN finally put me in t-storms tomorrow early evening but strangely that same PMX blend they used lowered my high from 20C to 17C with even a chill to 15C! 97% I don't see any severe I reckon, TWN thinks the severe is isolated to extreme SW Ontario and for me only some hail and strong winds if that.
-
When has the wf overperformed around these parts (ie pushed further north than expected)? I got nothing for that its always under. I was going to ask the same some time ago about slower fronts but this event sort of did that; bucked the trend. Sando?
-
My Weds still shows rain and 17C, considering I'm in the SPC contor for severe I'm waiting on that to change to chance of t-storms, then something more. Getting even a regular t-storm during the first 10 days of April here is lore, I can't recall any dates but the last storm during this month was 2021 I think but the last decent one was mid month 2009.
-
Is that indicative that they are in shock?

Fulton-Tazewell-Peoria- 237 PM CDT Fri Mar 31 2023 ...A TORNADO WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 300 PM CDT FOR EAST CENTRAL FULTON...WEST CENTRAL TAZEWELL AND SOUTHWESTERN PEORIA COUNTIES... At 237 PM CDT, a large and extremely dangerous tornado was located near Glasford, or 8 miles east of Canton, moving northeast at 55 mph. This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. TAKE COVER NOW!

Rainfall amounts imby ramped up now to 40 mm with heavy rain ongoing. Areas of extreme SON getting impressive radar returns like Ingersoll and Tilsonburg.
