  1. 1995 , 2012 . I was only 9 in 1995 but remember it being a very stormy summer. 2012 OTH was unrelenting hot and maddeningly quiet. 1995 also had a very busy spring tornado season leading into the summer heatwave (including the early June Texas Panhandle outbreaks). Which as we know this year has not featured.
  2. Come on, ring of fire... SPC 4-8 outlook sounds like they expect most of it to be along/north of the international border, which figures.
  3. So if I (34) were to be in a car accident, or were to catch COVID-19 and be one of the unfortunate few in my age group who needs hospital treatment, they should turn me away? Gee. thanks.
  4. Good. The only thing worse than a hot and boring pattern is a cold and boring pattern.
  5. Coastal bomb in summer...why not, 2020?
  6. Nearly hydroplaned on Mineral Point eastbound just off the Beltline on my way home.
  7. First peeks of sun all day as the backside of the line clears. Have fun, IL folks.
  8. Never made it above the mid-70s today. Line coming in from the northwest, not expecting it to intensify much more than it already has.
  9. MD out, says "tornado threat will be maximized in southern WI/northern IL." https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md1006.html Gonna need to see some sun to be convinced...
  10. Is it me or is MKX radar down now for the last 20-ish minutes?
  11. Not liking all these showers in the late morning.
  12. That's what we say about Iowa and Illinois. Except never chase in Iowa because then the tornadoes will be in Illinois, and vice versa.
  13. Among other things, it makes it darn near impossible to retire any name earlier than "F." Even in 1992, Andrew probably wouldn't have been Andrew if names were burned through like they are now.
  14. Got to drive through it on the way home from Portage. Saw a few intracloud bolts.
  15. The discussion sounded almost like they expect an event similar to that one in August, 1994 that Gary England wrote about in his book (especially the line about "wind-driven hail"). Same general area, too of western KS/OK border region.
  16. Wisconsin's % positive rate has been holding between 2-4% for some time now. I don't know how we've gotten lucky so far, what with the April primary fiasco and then the doors being thrown open by the Supreme Court in mid-May. Our mask-wearing compliance seems to be no better or worse (in other words, not great) than other parts of the region. Thankfully my workplace has now mandated masks, although not everyone fully complies at all times (I see some people where theirs spends half the day down around their chin) at least they are when we have to be in close proximity for extended periods of time.
  17. LOL, we were removed from yesterday's Day 3 Marginal risk (for Monday) on the first Day 2, then added back to it on the update. Guess we'll have to keep an eye out for more shenanigans.
  18. Wisconsin, the land of cheese and random tornado warnings on marginal risk days.
  19. Not amplified in the right places though if you like spring for storms.
  20. Raining harder now than it ever did during "Cristobal" yesterday.
  21. Maybe Cristobal has a little more up his sleeve than I thought. Wind Advisory now hoisted for MKX's eastern counties (not including Dane, but does include Rock). 999.1 MB at KMSN as of 3 PM. Don't see a whole lot of sub-1000 readings.
  22. For as meteorologically unusual an event as this is (apparently the last time the center of a remnant TC circulation crossed into WI was Hurricane Gilbert in 1988, and that only clipped the SE corner), it appears the impacts won't be all that memorable. We're not under any wind headlines, not even an advisory. Just looks like a run-of-the-mill inclement weather day.
  23. Naturally. What has happened to "King" Euro? Time was, if it was the one showing an impact event you sat up and took notice. And if the GFS was popping PDS TOR soundings everywhere you said "Meh, I'll wait and see what the Euro says."
