Big @$$ weather

[TangoWhiskey]

Tops to FL720?! Wow. Hope all this stuff clears out before folks head to the FlyBQ!!

Diana, hunker down... again! That line trailing off of it is forming a solid squall from Peoria into the TX panhandle--will be giving us weather tonight and tomorrow, too, in the DFW area.

I hope the wx clears out too.

Not much of a hole through that line ...

I was just in the closet d/t tornado warnings Wednesday night. Been watching the squall line the past few hours. Looks like tornado warnings for Wichita now. Hope Tony got out already.

It's going to be another interesting evening here in Missouri (Misery).

Sometimes it is nice to live very much north of town.

Just occasional drizzle here (so far.)


A Chicago police canine unit dog ran away the other day when the thunder scared him. I haven't heard if they found him yet.

I'll batten down... it is also nice to have a house that is half underground.

What was the day and time on that chart Troy?

Scott, I snapped it right before I posted it. So it would have been the 14th about 4:30pm Central.

Got your interest, eh?

 

[TangoWhiskey]

Normally these RCM tops are greatly exaggerated. It says you posted on the 15th, not the 14th?

Correct; I am running a day behind, mentally. Left is right, too. ;-)

It was a heckofadumper. Lots of the outlying towns and roads are flooded.

FL 72? Heck, that's DARK out there....and I thought the tropopause ended at ~50K....

Yeah. I was gonna say it hit Bruce and Grant and Leslie. I didn't get a drop.

They said on the evening TV yesterday news that at that point, before most of the squall came through, some western burb had gotten 9 inches of rain.

Did DEEP TUNNEL work?

Dunno. It's not near me. I haven't heard of any flooding near town.

Remember, Grant, Leslie and Kent are in Philly this weekend!

i drove through some major rain on my way from wichita to kansas city on friday. that was at about 5:30 pm. my flight was delayed somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 hrs because the inbound flights couldn't get out. the planes for the 4 PM and the 6:30PM (my flight) Atlanta outbounds both showed up at about 9PM after major diversions (one to chicago and the other to Garden City, KS) to get around the storms. Since I missed my connection by about 2 hrs i had a nice uncomfortable 4 hr nap in the terminal at Atlanta before catching a flight to PHilly for the FLYBQ
