August 6-? Severe Weather


Recommended Posts

Storm rolled through here and scared the hell out of me. I'm definitely not the person I was before the tornado.

Of course it didn't help that the weekend meteorologist on one of the TV stations kept mentioning a tornado, and showed the tower cam and a shelf cloud then suddenly a transformer exploded due to lightning or wind and he was mentioning a possible tornado and the tornado impact was 9.0.

Whew....

that is perfectly understandable JoMo. that was a traumatic and tragic experience. that is something you never forget. i would be a lil paranoid to if part of my town was wiped out by an EF5. glad you made it though :)

Wow. That was totally unexpected. Storm got severe warned right as it was above me.

Ended up being the best storm of the year here IMBY by far, maybe last year as well. Winds were probably 60 mph or higher, I'll look around for branches and stuff down later. Torrential rains and some half-inch hail as well. Only downside was the lack of lighting.

Looking at the radar I pretty much was right in the dead center of this thing. Schweeeeet

Hope it does something rare and holds together as it enters macomb.

Nice storm rolling across the lake right at CLE. Looks like a classic shoreline tree limb breaker. I'm sure they will be calling the Indians/Tigers game soon.

Yep. This is a classic direction for wind damage here at the shore. Every storm that's done harm this summer has come off the lake.

Intercepted a storm building on the Huntington/Whitley County line earlier. Here is a shot of what I saw while driving north on SR 9 north of Huntington:

A view from the southern edge of the storm:

This storm moved east over FWA which reported a 65 MPH wind gust.

Finally, a smaller storm rolled through the southern part of the county a short time later. Here is a view from the back of the storm:

A lot of TWS today in Nebraska. Also a lot of 65dbz returns.

I think it might have been the best day in the last few weeks.

Haha, you guys get plenty of weather. We get no Nor'easters here, plus the EC has its own form of interesting severe DMC. I will say the weather hole the Appalachians induces can be a bit of a pain though. Pretty much East Coast bombs or bust.

What is DMC again? We get a little of everything, but usually not much of anything good.
