Its hard to tell these static images wirhout knowing which direction relitive to the storm your looking at. IMHO looks like a flanking line to me.

Mrs.J Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Well we are back under cloudy skies up here to the north. Temp is back down to 48 after we went up to 51 for about 45 min. The winds have picked up slightly with a gust every once and awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmeddler Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 It will be interesting to see if PAX NAS reports hail in the next 10 minutes or so. LWX is picking up some small hail on dual-pol around 6 kft. More likely than not it will melt to big rain drops before hitting the surface.

Ian Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 If you look at twitter etc this is like an uber outbreak. I guess the april 27 effect will live with us a while.. but even with a mod risk this never screamed giant event, but some of the online talking heads acted that way.
