Back deck view right now.

Radar as of 1:05. Final band about to move in.

Over an inch here thus far. We’ll crack 1.5-2” here for sure after the final band kicks through. Jeez.

My friend across the street is registering 30 right now on their weather station. I’ll have to check that. Seems a bit cold. But most areas around town are now in the lower to middle 30s thanks to that band that set up. We’re gonna hit 1-2” here for sure based on radar trends. Cars, roofs, and grass...

All snow now here in Deer Park. Flake size ranging from quarters to half dollar size. Impressive.

Rain and wind here in Deer Park. Temp 40.

Trevor would agree 24 / 7 with this post.

Correct

But I’ll take it. Why not. Should rip pretty good out there for a while tonight. I’m off tomorrow so I’ll be up watching with beer(s) in hand!

Talk about a complete turnaround of a weather day! After a crappy start, it sure is nice out now.

Here’s a post I made regarding this on my FB page. I’m the youngster in the middle of the picture. I was in 1st grade at the time, but remember everything like it happened yesterday. ———— April 9, 1999. Twenty-two years ago this day. The odds of getting hit by a tornado for any one person is slim to...

Main clearing area is noted by the yellow wedge. Area circled in orange does feature some breaks in the clouds. But as I said, much more is going against a severe threat today than for one. And the threat was marginal to begin with. Aka very low chance of isolated severe locally if at all.

Not overly optimistic about severe chances today. Clearing line is way back in Illinois. Between that and the persistent rains, I don’t see much of a chance for rebounding. While higher than yesterday, dew points are still marginal at best (right around 60).

Ooof the south is in for some big time storms this afternoon and tonight. Tornadoes, large to giant hail, and destructive SL winds. With that line so close to a rich moisture source, no reason to believe this thing won’t keep on trucking through tomorrow morning and beyond. Derecho classification wh...

Looks like the HiRes was off by a few miles lol :lol: In texts to some friends for planning purposes I essentially said this would ultimately happen. The timing and placement of the rain showers off and on today in the metro area was a red flag for future convective development. Like Les, I was als...

Latest run of the HRRR nails the metro with heavy storms around 5pm. Let’s see how it does.

55 here right now and 60 will be tough. Tomorrow is a beauty before rain / storms come in Sat night into Sunday. A cool Monday then we moderate and get hit again with rain / storms Tues night into Wed. Cold Shot to start April. Then we moderate Easter Weekend. Tomorrow has day drinking written all ...

Lost two shingles here. Also there’s a trash can lid in the yard from who knows where

12-4 should be the peak time for 40-60mph gusts.

Welcome back!

Les: any hail? That core went right over Burlington.

That’s terrible news!

Today’s weather is...

HRRR continues to advertise gust potential for Cincinnati (Hamilton Co) between 40-45mph with isolated higher gusts as is always the case with situations like this. They may add in another row or two of counties at some point this evening as we discussed earlier. Either way it’ll be windy. Edit: it’...

Wonder if ILN may eventually expand the WA down another row or two. Some of the high res models show advisory gusts in the metro area later.

Facebook LIVE Video with the legendary James Spann covering the Alabama tornadoes. https://www.facebook.com/abc3340/videos/2803930736589456 He is going to be exhausted after all of this.
