If you really want to see something depressing, check out the consistently large data gap of 00z/12z RAOBs across the intermountain west, desert southwest, and upper plains. Watching the US upper air network get decimated willy nilly is just a sight to behold.

Severe Thunderstorm Watch area wide until 8pm.  WB 16Z HRRR thru 8pm.

We don't need NOAA/NWS and all that silly data.

Winds gusting above 30 mph here with that severe cell moving to my north.  That and the overcast are knocking down the heat.

Thus far, the best cell of the day appears to be running just north of Mason-Dixon into PA. Consistent CG, tops sustained about 35,000 feet, and now some damage reports coming out as LSRs via CTP.
