989 mb Explosively Developing Low over Chicago early Wed!!! TWO DEATHS CONFIRMED!!!! Compared with cleveland superbomb

This one is more akin to the march 2nd 2012 tornado outbreak in kentucky... that pulled tropical and arctic air together right above my head.

I'll try to get some screen shots

AccuWeather.com‏@breakingweather

Thunderstorms heading towards Niagara Falls and Buffalo, NY, within the next hour. Watch out for drenching downpours.

alright the screen shots I can get are useless lol

the great derecho storm started out as a thunderstrom cell and it had a lot of energy to feed on...

But this one has a lot more... pulling moisture and energy from the pacific ocean...

yes tomorrow it will be over Kentucky... and at the same time over the pacific too...

it ill also be pulling cold down from Canada...

Nothing about this storm makes me happy...

Its not even raining here yet... and i want to run to the shelter... im hope this storm doesnt go the extra mile... but its liable to turn very tornadic



BUT my local weather dude who is pretty awesome and actually loves getting on TV to scream at us to run run run run when there is an actual threat just said this on facebook about the storm for my location in Kentucky.... US... this is for Kentucky... not ur state

Snow from Kansas City to Marquette will water the Mississippi. [link to ow.ly]

[link to weather.unisys.com]

Kansas City area is under a tornado watch and then a winter weather advisory for tonight.

This is concerning, and I think it may even be a surprise to the mets calling it. Forecast highs in Southern WI were 45-50 today, and it is currently 52, with more warming on the way. The warm air is pulling much further north than initially forecast, which means possibly even more instability. Just giving a firsthand account on the northern end of the system.

A tornado watch will likely be issued soon for parts of NE Texas.

Discrete supercells will form ahead

of the cold front and main line of storms in Central Oklahoma. These storms will bring a high threat for tornadoes.

New Tornado Watch likely soon for NERN TX...SERN OK...WRN AR [link to 1.usa.gov]

Any idea how much they were forecast to get? Curious if it is more than initially thought?

I've mentioned this a bunch... so anyone who remembers my posts will be like "he's a fucking broken record" lol

but
Friday March 2nd 2012 Tornados devastated Eastern, Kentucky

The Tornado that hit the town of Salyersville about got me before it hit that town... it was a miracle from God that it turned at the last minute and spared us.

Sunday March 4th shortly after midnight it started snowing... we got 6 inches of snow...

So yeah it is a situation lol

but it has happened... and can happen

It was a nice day on that thursday and friday... much like it is now... warm and beautiful... but turned bitter cold... a lot of people here lost their homes and a lot of people lost power in the Tornados...

Then the freezing cold come in to add "insult to injury"

I kept power during the tornados... we were one of the few...

but the snow got our power... and we were out several days...

MODERATE RISK of severe weather expanded in size. Details shortly...

Extended further north.....not surprising. I think at least one more adjustment will be made to that moderate risk zone before everything starts to tear loose.

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1020 AM CST TUE JAN 29 2013

VALID 291630Z - 301200Z

...THERE IS A MDT RISK OF SVR TSTMS FROM THE ARKLATEX TO THE LOWER
OH VALLEY...

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS SURROUNDING THE MDT RISK...FROM
ERN TX/OK TO THE LOWER MS VALLEY AND OH VALLEY...

...ERN OK/TX TO THE MS AND OH VALLEYS THROUGH TONIGHT...
A LARGE-SCALE MID-UPPER TROUGH OVER THE HIGH PLAINS WILL PROGRESS
EWD OVER THE LOWER PLAINS TO THE MS VALLEY BY EARLY WEDNESDAY.
WITHIN THE LARGE TROUGH...A PRIMARY SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER THE SRN
HIGH PLAINS...WITH AN ASSOCIATED 100 KT MIDLEVEL JET...WILL EJECT
ENEWD TOWARD ERN OK/NW AR/MO OVERNIGHT. LIKEWISE...AN ASSOCIATED
SURFACE CYCLONE NOW IN N CENTRAL OK WILL DEEPEN AND MOVE NEWD ACROSS
MO/IL TO LOWER MI...ALONG A PRE-EXISTING BAROCLINIC ZONE.
MEANWHILE...A BROAD MOIST SECTOR IS ALREADY ESTABLISHED FROM ERN
TX/OK TO THE LOWER AND MID MS VALLEY REGION...WHERE BOUNDARY LAYER
DEWPOINTS RANGE FROM THE UPPER 60S ALONG THE NW GULF COAST...TO
56-60 F FARTHER N INTO MO/IL. ADDITIONAL EWD EXPANSION OF THE MOIST
SECTOR IS LIKELY THROUGH TONIGHT ACROSS THE MS/TN AND LOWER OH
VALLEY REGION...IN RESPONSE TO THE DEEPEN CYCLONE AND A
STRENGTHENING SLY LLJ.

WIDESPREAD CONVECTION IS ONGOING ALONG AND JUST AHEAD OF THE SURFACE
COLD FRONT FROM CENTRAL OK TO NRN MO. THOUGH EXTENSIVE CLOUDS ARE
PRESENT THROUGH MUCH OF THE WARM SECTOR...CONTINUED MOISTURE
ADVECTION FROM THE S AND MODEST SURFACE HEATING IN CLOUD BREAKS WILL
BOOST MLCAPE VALUES TO THE 1000-2000 J/KG RANGE ACROSS E TX AND SE
OK THIS AFTERNOON...WITH LESSER BUOYANCY FARTHER TO THE E AND NE.
THERE ARE ALREADY INDICATIONS THAT ADDITIONAL PRE-FRONTAL CONVECTION
WILL DEVELOP FROM NE TX INTO SE OK/WRN AR AND EVENTUALLY SRN MO THIS
AFTERNOON ALONG THE MOIST AXIS. VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILES WILL BE
FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELLS WITH AN ATTENDANT RISK FOR TORNADOES AND
DAMAGING WINDS ACROSS THIS CORRIDOR. FARTHER N...CONVECTION WILL
GRADUALLY EVOLVE INTO A WELL-DEVELOPED QLCS WITH AN INCREASING RISK
FOR DAMAGING WINDS LATER THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY TONIGHT...WITH A
RISK OF EMBEDDED MESOVORTICES AND TORNADOES.

THE GREATEST SEVERE RISK IS EXPECTED THIS EVENING THROUGH
TONIGHT...BEGINNING AS THE PRE-FRONTAL CONVECTION NEAR AND NW OF THE
ARKLATEX...AND CONTINUING OVERNIGHT AS ADDITIONAL PRE-FRONTAL
CONVECTION FORMS WITHIN ONE OR MORE WARM SECTOR CONFLUENCE BANDS
NEAR THE MS RIVER. VERTICAL SHEAR WILL BE EXTREMELY STRONG WITHIN A
MOIST ENVIRONMENT WITH AT LEAST WEAK SURFACE-BASED INSTABILITY.
THOUGH MLCAPE MAY ONLY REACH 500-750 J/KG...EFFECTIVE SRH OF 500-700
M2/S2 IN ASSOCIATION WITH A 70-80 KT LLJ WILL SUPPORT THE POTENTIAL
FOR A FEW STRONG TORNADOES WITH FAST-MOVING PRE-FRONTAL
SUPERCELLS...AS WELL AS CIRCULATIONS EMBEDDED WITHIN WHAT WILL
BECOME A WELL-FORMED SQUALL LINE. WIDESPREAD AND SIGNIFICANT
DAMAGING WINDS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE AS FAR NE AS THE LOWER OH
VALLEY...WHERE 80+ KT FLOW JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE WILL COINCIDE WITH
AT LEAST WEAK SURFACE-BASED BUOYANCY THROUGH MOST OF THE NIGHT.
