Probably will be a couple more weeks at least to see all trees leaf out. Behind the averages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinton Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 The enhanced risk area for today was expanded further east. A tornado outbreak after dark for Kansas, Oklahoma and possibly southern Nebraska is possible. Not a fan of this don't want anyone to get hurt. For mby a squall line with strong winds looks likely. Early this morning, slow-moving MCS has propagated into southeast NE with scattered convection trailing west, just north of the KS border. This activity is expected to gradually wane/shift east by daybreak. Stronger-forced convection is now responding to the short wave over the NE Panhandle and this activity should gradually spread east through late morning. Latest thinking is low-level moisture should hold across southern NE, just north of the surface low as easterly boundary-layer component in the wake of the ongoing MCS will persist across this region. With upper 50s/lower 60s surface dew points expected into portions of northwest KS, supercells should readily develop ahead of the approaching short wave by early afternoon. An expanding corridor of scattered supercells should spread along the NE/KS border within a strongly sheared environment characterized by MUCAPE in excess of 2000 J/kg. Forecast soundings strongly suggest very large hail, in excess of 3 inches may be noted within this steep lapse-rate environment. Additionally, a few tornadoes appear likely with this activity, possibly even a strong tornado. Farther south along the dryline, intense surface heating should lead to minimal CINH by 21z and isolated supercells are expected to develop across KS into northern OK where mid-level height falls are expected. Models continue to suggest low-mid 60s surface dew points will be noted immediately ahead of the dryline which will result in a narrow corridor of 3000 J/kg SBCAPE. While model guidance produces minimal/no precipitation along the dryline south of I40 over OK into TX, low-level convergence along the boundary may prove adequate for sustained updrafts at lower latitudes. This portion of the outlook is highly conditional, but if storms develop they will be severe with very large hail (3-4 inch possible) along with a threat for tornadoes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could be a dangerous situation....buckle up, things are going to get real bumpy over the next 5-7 days!

CentralNebWeather Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 Our HS Track Meet is today at 1 PM. All teachers are required to work at it. Storms look to come through after 4 PM. Field events should be fine, but running events might be iffy. Thick cloud cover all morning might limit some of the severe storms. We'll see. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlgamer Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 I'm fully in the cross hairs for significant severe weather later today, but I do think the most likely outcome for MBY is a severe wind and/or hail threat from a squall line in the 9 PM-1 AM time frame. That said, the 12z FV3 does show a tornadic supercell moving through my area around 7 PM so I would be concerned about any discrete storms that form nearby primarily from 6-9 PM. Just something to keep an eye on. If nothing else maybe I'll get my first tornado watch in almost three years. 1 Quote 21-22 Total Snowfall: 21.1" (123% of seasonal normal 17.1" ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabel23 Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Just a wonderful soaking the past couple of days! My county was in a tornado warning last night as the squall line rolled through. I of course went out chasing and went too far west. I ended up being overtaken by the line and couldn't get back out in front. The shelf cloud was impressive but again I went too far west to watch it roll in! I received .90" on Thursday and 1.7" the past 48 hours so a total of 2.6. My lawn care business will be kicking into high gear as we roll into May! The gardening on the other hand will have to be delayed for a while..... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmahaSnowFan Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Tragedy last night for 3 chasers. My biggest worry chasing is all the driving, never the storms. I was nearly killed 4 years ago next Memorial Day driving home from a chase. A jackknifed semi was blocking all lanes on I80 in the dark and rain. I came up on it driving 75 mph and only saw it when my headlights shined on the overturned trailer. I slammed on the brakes, turned hard right and somehow managed to parallel the semi as I headed straight for the ditch. I missed a pedestrian from a pulled over car walking on the side of the road by maybe a foot and managed to keep the car under control as well. The shock to my body of having a near death experience kept my chest sore for 3 days. Rest in peace to the young students. https://okcfox.com/news/local/three-ou-meteorology-students-die-in-car-crash-near-kansas-border 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
