Thanks for the bday wishes yesterday guys. Worked 11 hours so I wasn't able to get on after I woke up to respond to the happy bday wishes.

Devin, for future reference, green on an SPC convective outlook denotes non-severe thunderstorms being likely. Slight/Moderate/High risks areas are not necessarily indicative of tornado threat. There was a High risk issued late last year for a wind threat associated with storms and a couple of moderate risks issued this year so far primarily a large hail threat. I always read the text that goes with the graphics for that reason. It will outline all the information indicated by the graphics, along with the corresponding risk factors for affected areas.

Granted, we all knew there was a tornado threat for yesterday, but just because SPC issues a moderate or high risk, it does not mean the tornado risk is there. Just some friendly advice from someone who's been tracking weather (especially severe weather) out here in Oklahoma for over two decades. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

I think I'm gonna watch the morning news and head for bed. Y'all have a good one.

 

Hi Sgt. `Drew,
I hope that you had a great birthday. It's good that you are getting so many hours @ work How has life been going for you ? How's you ride ?
You are getting older , but are you getting better ?

 

Well last week I was told I was getting promoted to team lead which will mean more hours and better pay. The 78 Camaro will be getting a new transmission in the next month and then after that I'll start building a new motor for the 73. I'm busy but I've been good.

As far as feeling older, that happens everytime I get out of bed with my bad knee.

 

Good morning all. Just rolled out of bed getting ready to go to the office

Have a great day!

 

With all do respect buddy, I do know what I'm talking about. appreciate the thought of trying to help me out, but yesterday was a tornado threat hence why people in the moderate to high risk had to keep an eye out for tornadoes yesterday. It was a hail and wind event as well i agree but large violent long lived tornadoes were the big killer yesterday that people had to keep an eye out for. there was plenty of CAPE and low level wind sheer in the moderate/high risk areas for tornadoes plus the cloud cover did clear up in the late mornings so with that sun out caused even more De-stablization in the atmosphere and some wedges were in those areas as well as 90 confirmed tornadoes so people need to take very much caution with tornado events. that's why i get the word out not everyone is a weather nut here to i try to keep it as simple as possible, telling people in shaded areas to be careful is the best way.

 

LoL `Devin, "With all do RESPECT" > I respect your words/knowledge & you 4 sharing & keeping your Monte Carlo Family informed on what's happening out there with Mother Nature.

I don't chase storms, but they seem to chase 'me (LOL)
=================================================
OK,it's time 2 get `up & dance > > & Celebrate `Life >4>Sure

 

Now with that all said, good morning everyone!
And today looks like another wild day for severe weather.
The tornado threat today is a bit less than the last 2 days but it is definitely still there for areas of northern Mississippi and southern Alabama.
Here are the areas where tornadoes could form.
green=2% tan=5% brown=10% blue -15% .



The rest of the area will be a wind/hail even with some very large hail possible


There is already 2 tornado watches up for a line of storms pushing east


looks like a rainy day for most the country today!

 

Hidy Ho, Neighbors. It looks like it's going to be a wonderful day in the neighborhood today with lots of sunshine and a temp of around 73°.
