The slower it is moving, the more northward it will go, due to the ridge overhead breaking down. 1 Quote Snowfall for Winter 2023 -24 for Metro Detroit Area Oct 2023: 0.2" AN Nov 2023: 2.2" AN Dec 2023: 0.5" BN Insane!

westMJim Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 There have been dark clouds just to my north for almost 3 hours now but so far every thing is still to my north. There is even some purple on the radar do not see that all that often. At this time it is 79 here at my house with clouds and some peeks of the sun and very dark clouds to the north and northwest and at times it has been very windy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmahaSnowFan Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 It was crazy to see ONCE AGAIN severe storms and a big MCS form and roll across southwest Nebraska and then Kansas last night. The initial storm that formed in southwest Nebraska was a BEAST. Had brief tornadoes, 80 mph winds and baseball sized hail. I'm pretty tempted to ask the WFO's out there how many watches they've had or warnings they've had to issue this summer. It seems like basically since the middle/end of June there's been at least 2-3 days of severe weather every week in that part of the country from eastern WY/western SoDak down through Nebraska and eastern Colorado and then into Kansas. I used to have my phone set up to receive notifications on Twitter from the weather offices in the region and I had to shut off the ones for those areas because my phone was blowing up every day! Meanwhile here in Omaha, we've had 1 warning, no severe weather(large hail or strong winds) and only a couple of severe tstorm watches this entire year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are some Nebraska and national maps to look at. They aren’t in the order I wanted them to be, but that’s the way it uploaded. Yesterday’s SPC storm report map still is preliminary.

jaster220 Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Some large drops pinging here now, along with occasional burst of chilly air prolly from some down drafts. Nice to hear the sound of raindrops nonetheless Sad that I'm ecstatic for 3/10" of rainfall at my place, but that's the biggest (and only decent) total in 8 full weeks here. Airport unit only reported 0.26" but they're south of my place about a mile and this was weakening as it moved thru from the NW. 1 Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season) Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13) Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.3 Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2" (Harrison): 2023-24 = 53.1" Avg = 45.0" (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5" 2021-22 = 35.6" Avg = 49.7" (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2" 2019-20 = 48.0" 2018-19 = 56.1" 2017-18 = 68.3" 2016-17 = 52" 2015-16 = 57.4" 2014-15 = 55.3" 2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!) 2012-13 = 47.2" 2011-12 = 43.7" Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Yeah. I'd say I really misjudged that one. It was a nothingburger 2 days ago.Hope they're prepared.With these type of systems, they always tend to make sudden surprises. That is why people down there should always take precaution.

OmahaSnowFan Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Thanks for the links and maps. I've seen those watches maps before but haven't seen the warnings map! Here are some Nebraska and national maps to look at. They aren’t in the order I wanted them to be, but that’s the way it uploaded.

OmahaSnowFan Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 I ran maps for the Goodland WFO in northwest KS. It looks like the county Goodland is in has had 25-30 severe tstorm warnings this year. Here are some Nebraska and national maps to look at.

I'm hoping you can score something good before to long Niko's area should be greening up since I recall him mentioning a 2"> rainfall. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormhunter87 Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Driving to Ft. Collins today and crazy how green everything is here in Western Nebraska. Alot of water still standing around Grand Island. Also interesting some of the corn fields are looking way behind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last one came outta nowhere and popped ova Macomb county last second that dumped torrential rains and vivid lightning, no wind for a good 20 minutes before it finally moved on east of me. Btw: Wish I can pop a good t'stm on Jasters lawn and green it up a bit. 2 Quote Snowfall for Winter 2023 -24 for Metro Detroit Area Oct 2023: 0.2" AN Nov 2023: 2.2" AN Dec 2023: 0.5" BN Insane!
