Bottomed out @ 5.4 deg early this morn here in chilly Charm City, though the temp has recovered nicely to a positively 'sweltering' 16.9 haha. Happy Holidays to all you weenies from a long time lurker! Cheers!

Temp dropped a coupla deg to 37.8 w/ winds picking up and light flizzarding here in B'more City a coupla miles north of downtown

Thanks for the replies, the tornado that went through Bowie a couple of weeks ago passed about 1/4 mile from my mom's, and my bro lost power for 4 days in the severe storms last week, so keepin' an eye on the sky for them. Cheers!

Hey, have relatives down in Bowie, anything to be concerned about here?

26/18 w/ tiny flakes starting to come down in Hampden/B'more City, roads are salted, shame it's all gonna wash downhill into the Harbor from here in a few hours

34/27 w/ light snow now visible in the street lights here north of downtown B'more, got 3 or 4 inches in the last event, so will be nice to get snow-on-snow in the shady parts of the backyard.

36/31 w/ steady snow here in B'more City, some rain and pingers to start out earlier, but full changeover in the last 30 mins, cartopping action in progress!

Was out doing food delivery earlier this evening for awhile in the Towson/Timonium/Hunt Valley area, def was cool to see the first flakes of the season falling in late November (and not sticking on the roads haha), though there was nothing happening by the time I got back to the lowlands in Hampden/B'more City, lame!

St. Louis gets them on occasion, the most memorable in the past decade being the one in April 2011 that hit the airport and tore off a chunk of the main terminal's roof.  The Cardinals game had to be put on hold in order to shelter-in-place everyone in Busch Stadium.

I witnessed the Edmonton EF4 of 1987.

 

St. Louis Arena tornado damage from 1959...

Anything to be concerned about here on the velocity scan?
