Insane storms in Iowa. Obvious PDS warnings up.

I could see that in June, with a flip later July/August but that’s entirely speculative. I’ve heard Nina summers usually feature +NAOs and more Atlantic/SE Canada ridging.

You’re more plugged in on severe than I’ll ever be, but if I were to hazard a guess about our summer it’d be active storm wise. Once we break into heat and dews..

Iowa is Iowa…it’s a classic active year out there. Would’ve been a good year to head west.

Nice storm up in Upstate NY. Severe warned.

Yup, we soared shortly after this. Just shy of 81 now. Beautiful day.

Still struggling to reach 70 here in the HFD area. Almost there though.

Thanks guys, maybe it was iPhone. I tried manually changing the web address yesterday and this site changed it back to X. Weird. It works now.

That’s exactly how you’d want to be at that age. Once activity stops, the body ages quickly.

@dendrite is there any way to fix the auto populating feature for tweets? The workaround is not working anymore. https://x.com/mark_debruin/status/1792601967438832085?s=46&t=Nn9Cx92_8118fPdhHPdJHw

75° and sunny here in the HFD area. Beautiful day.

Just enough misery mist to mess up a day.

How many panels do you have? I moved into a house with panels and I love it. I don’t get that much production but I’m almost certainly on a smaller lot.

The downside of being a climatologically beautiful time of year (here at least) is that it can be awfully boring. Nothing remotely interesting. No snow, no tropical, no heat, no dews, no cold, no drought, no fires, no flooding, nothing. Throw in a bunch of rainy days that force people inside and some go stir crazy.

It was a bad start to the day in Hartford and points east but who cares. That’s the pattern.

Hot, humid, and east coast tropics threats.

It's straight stupid how anomolous the current 28°C isotherm is across the MDR. I always pay more attention to that as it's really the harbringer of major hurricane potential. As soon as the upper atmosphere begins to settle into more of a late Summer / July pattern combined with La Niña and weakening trades, I fully expect an early onset of CV ASO+ and a hyperactive season. Totally agree. 2024 has been in a class of its own so far. I also think the SSTA distribution makes it less likely for stability issues in the MDR? Seems like a good +AMO setup. What’s another year with the classic horseshoe distribution? From Andy Hazelton: 29C for May 14 is just off the charts absurd.

I’m guessing it’ll be mostly straight line winds. I think there was one TDS near Houston. Basically a cat 1 rolled through the region. Interesting how the actual obs sites had lower reported gusts. Phil ripping glass out of skyscrapers type stuff. Insane.

Grid demolished. Over a million outages statewide and 40% of Harris County without power.

That was a big dog that hit Harris County and Houston. Hundreds of thousands without power and extensive damage reports coming in.

Great feed. Looked like a heck of a storm. Spotter reported a tornado.

I usually wait as long as I can to install. It’ll be another few weeks for me if we’re not tickling 90 consistently.

It’s about time. Hopefully a dry period too.

Funny enough, in a TWC segment yesterday on the technology now available for hurricane recon, one of the scientists mentioned how the concept behind “Dorothy” is now more real than ever with sail drones and such.
