EYEWITNESS SAID THAT THEY HAD TO SLOW DOWN AND WAIT FOR THE TORNADO TO PASS IN FRONT OF THEM ON THE ROAD. A SURVEY FOUND NO DAMAGE, HOWEVER, MOST OF THE AREA WAS OPEN FARM FIELDS. RADAR SUGGESTS A PATH THAT IS LONGER THAN THE TORNADO WAS ACTUALLY ON THE GROUND. Interesting. Looked like a brief landspout type touchdown. Interesting how the debris signature shows up a few scans later east of where it was reported to have touched down. That's 3 tornadoes within 10 miles of us since early March. They're closing in on us lol. Luckily they've all been very wimpy relatively speaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 What a difference some sun makes. Was cloudy all morning and fairly cool. This afternoon temps vaulted quickly into the low 70s once the sun came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UMB WX Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Long stretch of rain and clouds broke to this incredible Blue Bird Day and temps in the lower 60's. Hard to stay indoors today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 There was a chance of rain this morning as a weak disturbance moved through, but it ended up being pretty robust. A few hours of solid rain with a very heavy downpour mixed in added up to 0.76". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Nice downpour and some CGs around lunchtime. Picked up 0.46", which brings us up to just under 4" for May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well obviously, one's opinion of a month can be formed based on lot more than just the average temperature. Besides the fact that it's below normal temperature-wise, it's been a cloudier month than normal, there's been a below number of days with t'storms (never mind severe weather), above average rainfall and the only days with a positive departure greater than 5*C were the days with temps in the upper 80s.

Upper 70's are so much nicer anyhow. Flip side of the coin, in the winter I'm more happy at 25F than I am at 5F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Doctor Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 PDS Severe Tstorm Watch with 50% tornado probabilities was issued earlier (http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/ww0280.html). Has this ever been done before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 The morning MCS dried up over central Iowa, but the remnant disturbance re-fired this evening and dropped another 0.30" on my yard. I've received measurable rain on 8 of the last 11 days. We aren't getting a ton of rain (4.53" in May), but we can't shake the constant clouds and dampness.

IWXwx Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 1.71" yesterday with more in surrounding areas. Up to 9.41" for May with some outlying areas in the 10-12" range. Just crazy wet. Had a tornado warned cell yesterday (saw nothing) and a funnel cloud just our our northwest on an unwarned storm (video link below) Thanks to Matt Leach for posting on his Facebook page. Matt posts here occasionally, especially during winter storms. I got to the area 5 minutes after it dissipated, story of my life lol . Also had straight-line wind damage from late Friday night's storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday was OK here, definitely more summer-like. It was humid and we managed a high of 78*F. We got screwed though in almost every direction by the "strong" t'storms.

cyclone77 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Very nice weekend indeed. Temp/dew of 91/88 at Bandar near the Persian Gulf. Amazing that people actually have to live through that. Has to be absolutely insufferable. If the wind would just change direction and stop blowing in off of the gulf their dews would probably crash a good 40-50 degrees.

Interestingly enough, with the exception of 2013 (in which the high barely got above 60*F), every Memorial Day since 2010 has featured a high of 80*F or higher.

osubrett2 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 May ends up +0.5 for CMH. After bottoming out at 35F on 5/8 and maxing out at 88F on 5/17, the final half of the month was fairly close to average which slowly nudged the average to the positive side.
