April 24-29 Multi Day Central and Southern Plains Severe Weather Outbreak
For the early afternoon SRH is limited but CAPE is huge. The CAPE is probably overstated given entrainment, but this does certainly support large hail Later in the day the hodograph blows out as the LLJ kicks in. This looks more like a QLCS tornado threat as a presumably linear feature moves in. -

April 24-29 Multi Day Central and Southern Plains Severe Weather Outbreak
We've got a moderate for severe from SPC and for rain from WPC: Some ML guidance shows the highest threat more towards my area like nadocast: But others like CSU is a bit further west: I'm inclined to think the biggest severe weather threat will be further west towards OKC. I expect to see several strong tornadoes and reports of very large hail. As the storms congeal we will get a wind/QLCS threat morphing into a heavy rain/flood threat overnight. I don't think we will get anything truly crazy, but a couple of inches wouldn't shock me. -

April 2024 Weather in the PNW
Are you talking about the 8 weeks of July and August? Because it almost always rains in June and September with only a few exceptions. SEA averages .60 in July and .97 in August. So in order to have a rainfall every 2 weeks it would need just 2 each month. July and August in recent years has been an anomaly. -
