Really a dangerous situation when most people depend on the news for their safety and the news is telling them that the cell has been stuck over grand rivers when it's actually already over princeton. He's doing the broadcast with gr2analyst now, what a baller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was my error. Though I remain confused. (https://www.nws.noaa.gov/directives/sym/pd03041004s042005curr.pdf): For a power failure to take down an office, it would have to take out the generator. Both the office, and the radar, are supposed to have backup power in the event of commercial power failure (https://www.weather.gov/media/bro/pdf/PressReleaseNEXRADGeneratorSLEP_BRO.pdf). So, something isn't adding up for me. Was that offline for them? Was there storm damage to the generators? Etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanLarsen34 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I am seeing usually reserved people comparing this to the Tri-state tornado given how long this thing has been producing. This is absolutely insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generators are notoriously hard to maintain and a severe, and I mean very severe, shortage of technicians means there is frequently no expertise available to maintain them or fix problems. My bet is on generator failure and probably multiple sites. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
