.75” rain for me. Wind go to 46 mph. Lightning and thunder were the story more so than wind here.

Jesus Christ this is prolific rain and lightning and thunder

Pretty gnarly outside now but no major major winds

Wind just hit

Lots of FFW out in western PA. Models really failed today.

It’s going to hit a few hours sooner than I thought. 1-2 am for MDT.

It will restrengthen in the southern area near and past the mountains

Follow AA 546. If it actually departs. I’m skeptical. We fly that once a month usually.

A 330 am wake up call with siding blowing off a house sucks. Been there, done that.

Lots of weed and meth houses in danger, too Kidding aside hope you guys are ok and don’t have any issues. Storm is legit. Gonna be wild around these parts down here in the wee hours of the morning I think.

Well if the storm is bad it could send a tree through your house onto your skull and that could be sunset for you. Semantics, amiright?

Well it is 8:30 pm and the sunset is getting earlier and earlier

Rain isn’t the big story of this frontal passage imo. I could see big wind without any rain for many.

Storms should be strong through the entire region overnight. Wind damage seems very likely, gusts up to 70 possible.

That’ll take a few months if not longer I think.

IATSE and the League have reached a tentative deal - I assumed they would. I assume too UPS does.

Yeah, the UPS strike would be a big deal. FedEx isn't unionized so calling them scabs isn't really accurate imo.

As an avid Broadway goer and very pro union (busy time for us folks right now!), I don't think a strike here happens. The League and producers have the world to lose if so. And a strike authorization vote doesn't immediately lead to a work stoppage. It's a step on the process for potential action.

HOW DARE YOU CRITICIZE THE JMA

Parents got to 103 just NW of the city yesterday.

I haven't paid any attention to weather really but @Newman's post inspired me. It's going to be a wicked afternoon in the south-central plains today. Wowzers.

It's why wind scares me now - well one of the reasons. We saw the storm off in the distance and assumed staying tied up under the bridge was better than racing back 50 or whatever minutes to the dock in the middle of the night in a storm on a lake that has a ton of trees. Winds kicked up and the rubbing of the lines around the bridge posts snapped them and our boat got whipped around out into open water and then flipped. it was my parents, me and our little puppy - we were with friends and had planned to go back around 1 am but the fishing was so good we didn't leave. Than the storm. Since we were close to a bridge we could get to embankment. I can't remember how we were found - I was a teenager and that is not in my memory but this was before cell phones (mid 90s). I assume a driver saw us.

Is this where I retell the story of me getting caught in a tornado around 1 a.m. while crappie fishing and the storm broke our lines (we were tied up under a bridge) and capsized our boat? And we had a dog with us? That SUCKED.

Not much - .05. I missed it almost entirely again for the 4th time today

Hey it’s raining
