News DetailSmallest Slight Risk area of the year!!

A strong trough centered over the Great Lakes Region and an associated cold front moving across the central U.S. will provide the possibility for severe weather this afternoon over western TN and KY. As expected for this time of year, instability will be lacking over the area, with CAPEs mainly below 1000 J/kg at peak heating. Low-level shear will be favorable for tornadoes, but storms will likely have problems remaining discrete along the cold frontal boundary. The result is the smallest Slight Risk area of the year. Stay tuned for updates!

IT'S 79.2 DEGREES HERE!!! AAAAAAAA!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EXTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 8-O 8-O 8-O
I bet cha there are a few Tornadoes today. It is 60 and windy here in Columbus Oh, with showers and some thunder possible later.
Well it's cold and windy here in kansas. 52 degrees with 35+ gusts makes for a cold day :)
Blowing up here in Ohio with 4 counties under Severe T-Storm warnings all over. Hail and wind.
- In reference to the previous blog discussion (recognized it a bit late ;-) -
Thank you Cors, that's very heavy! If heard about it one or two days ago, but never saw that video.
Yesterday I got to know that a F2 Tornado occured nearby my location (just 2-3 km away) in 2003. At this time I was not such a active weather observer. The Tornado ripped through a forest and fortunatily missed a village.
My opinion is that not much is going to happen and if it does it will be over western Tennesse and western Kentucky but there is a nice line in the ohio area which i dont think much will happen in the way of tornadoes
My buddy who lives outside of Cinci had nickel hail and 62 mph wind gust.
Where is your location Volker? Germany? I've seen some good tornado pictures/video from there over the years.
The cold front has blasted through OK...I believe it came through here earlier this morning and we're getting intense northerlies now.
The slight risk area was that for this morning or afternoon im kinda confused here.
The shear looks very good in Ohio...if these storms were discrete and surface based (which won't happen with no surface-based instability), all hell would be breaking loose.
Hey Reed and every one right now STORMS comin my way there about 50 miles from here better gear up already got my camrea!
Caleb were do you life again?????
Looks like storms are startingto fire up around the Owensburg area.
I live in KY
What part of Kentucky????? And what town to???????
in a earlier post i said Owensburg its actually Owensboro my bad.
Hailed for about 3 mins here in Fairfield County and alot of wind prob 40-50 range. Temp went from 65 to 51 in about 20 mins.
Woodford co not telling what city have you ever herd of
INTERNET SAFTY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are you going to chase any of these storms Reed? Or is it too low of a chance to bother?
Dude i dont care about internet safety i trust every single person on here to tell them were i live infact i think i already have but i cant force you to tell me were you live and i respect that yu wont tell me so im cool with that.
Are you serious Caleb? What is going to happen? Someone from the Tornadovideos.net forum is going to hunt you down and get you? LMAO.... That shit is funny! I live in Pueblo, CO 81001.... I dare someone to come for me!! You crack me up Caleb! He wasn't asking for your home phone, or a social security number or bank account info! haha
Yeah....
Dude i'm 10 i don't have a social security number or bank account!
3 McGahey Street
Tottenham, Ontario
L0G 1W0.
There were i life.
Man, I can't tell you how hard I was laughing! I think I about fell off my chair. Reed and his team are more of celebs than any of us, and they have a map showing exactly where they are located at every second of the day pretty much! That just made my day man. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. But no disrespect Caleb, just funny man!
the funny part is 3/4 of the people in Ontario dont know were Tottenham is so im not worried about people from the USA finding me.
LMAO EVEN HARDER! When you are born you have a social security number! Man you are really making my day today... Bank account.. no, i understand. You are only 10yrs old? Damn, then I can understand that you arejust doing what mommy and daddy say not to do, which is give out personal info! i have to give you props for that. But when you get older, you will get why I am laughing sooo hard!
well i said this morning Western Kentucky and storms are developing in Western Kentucky. Not bragging or anything but im proud of myself for that.
Good job Matt. I seent hat post from earlier when I was catching up on what was going on. I would feel proud too man! Thats cool.
Ok I have to go guys. Take care Matt, and I will talk to everyone later. Be safe Caleb!lol
I have a bank account that i wish had more money in it. But ill give anything you want but my bank account info because ive already had somebody take money from my account in the past.
willAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WILL YOU IDOT I bet this is what your doing
Hey guys whats up??
Nice one Matt, predicting that lol.
And fair enough Caleb, i understand why you wont give out where yo live!
Hey Tim hows it going today?????
Thanks and im doing alright.
And i respect that he wont give his info up id probably do the same thing at his age.
Finally some one undersans me.....
VERY dark clouds out side now
Hey Matt glad to hear your ok, ankle any better now??
And yeh im good thanks, im real tierd because i have my exams this week, if i dont passmy maths its good bye meteorology :( im so stressed!!
And Caleb im sure they understood you just everyone has their own amount of confidence
Ya the ankles been ok for about 4 days now.
the reason id tell people were a live is because 3/4 of the people in Southern Ontario dont know were Tottenham is so id say a good part of the USA doesnt either.
Good glad to hear it.....And yeh it is entirly up to you whether you tell people where you live, myself i dont care because i am from a different country and the only person on here from England ( i think )
Ya it would be an expensive plane ticket to track you down Tim i would think.
Lol deffinetly :P
anyway im out for 40 min, speak to you then Matt
Look what I found ^^^
OK now shelf cloud now
Caleb, you're a good man for not giving out your address. Very responsible behavior. Will, Matt, etc. remember, it's not YOU guys he needs to be concerned with.
Oh, and

Anyone notice how the warnings that are our right now are NOT in the slight risk, 2% tornado area?!
Caleb, there is probably emergency break-in coverage on your TV right now.
That cells looks pretty nice i dont have gr3 upstairs but that cells from doppler looks nice.
I do find that funny Heidi.
And from what im seeing that storm is starting to get a little hook on her.
Man i think that it would be hard to see a tornado right now because i think Kentucky is in the same time zone as me and im starting to loose light as we speak.
Heidi Yes infact it is about 3 miles from me! and it is on the sky cam just some scud and a wall cloud
AAAA we are having an outbreak! some kind of killer virus. now in second highest state of emergency. even newsreporterss got infected. to bad our emergency tv station website is down :(
oh well, It will prolly be nothing...
Where do i lok lol :P
hey guys back for a short amount of time lol
If this is rotating it's anticyclonic
Hey Tim right now look at Northern Kentucky right now that has a tornado warning on it.
Yeh Matt did't you see my other post it's about 3 miles from me!
yup i did. What sky cam station are you watching
Cheers Matt yeh i see it....
sos guys bt im out i have exams so got to get my sleep have a good one see ya!

Got ya by 6 degrees AJ 44 right now were I am and its raining.
Anyways How is Things AJ.
Now there saying there are unconfrmed damage from the earler warning
YET ANOTHER TORNADO WARNING?????? this one has 100 mph winds and WAY more rotation
The tail-end of the squall line is reaching into NE Arkansas now - there are storms firing just a county away, but I can't get any photos because of cloud-cover. :(
These storms in KY seem a lot more surface-based than what was anticipated, if we are to believe what GR3 has on the meso - 2100 ft?!
The sky at my house looks like the ELreno storm
GET SOME PICTURES, CALEB!!! :-D
Things are good Matt, thanks! Just getting ready for colder weather out here. And you?
Hmm... temp dropped again, this time to 46...
When I remarked about those original comments, I had no idea this kid was 10yrs old! I clearly stated that he did the right thing by not giving it out as well after I knew this. As for being called an IDIOT, I think that is rude, and uncalled for. Poking fun at you and getting a laugh is one thing. But once I realized your true age I backed off! I come on here to have fun and meet new COOL people. Not to be called names. but what do I expect from a 10yr old then? and you are right Heidi, it isn't us he needs to be worried about. I also don't think 10 yr olds should be involved with alot of things that they are though! Anyway, I want no fights or arguments. See you guys later
Hey guys, hows it going?
Guys, I just wanted to let you know that Hardcore weather will be going into winter weather mode begining Dec. 1, 2007! I encourage you to come to my site for any weather updates. Refer to my site for more info!^^
Heidi i did i'm uploading them
Im alright AJ. Its raining right now but nothing special. Im might get some snow on wednesday.
And I've got a job over the winter for next chasing season. Because Im going solo im going to build a camera stand and some how attach it to my passinger seat so that way i only have to hit a button every minute instead of holding on toit while im driving. I think its a good idea.
A cold front just moved through my region a couple of hours ago.. Not much change temperature wise.....yet anyway.
The winds are howling from the north gusting over 40mph at times!!
AJ, It's still 70 degrees at my house, although it was 76 before the front moved through!

Woa! Tornadoes? This time of the year?? COOL!!
Anyway, it is now 65 degrees!!!!
Will, when I was reading through the posts I figured you didn't know how old he was. And as for the "idiot" comment - could have been worse. At least it wasn't "booger head"!!!! ;-)
Zack, you lucky duck, still getting some warmth and all... lol. Oh well, now you get a blast of cold air :P
Cool deal Matt! Yeah, I made a pretty simple stand out of PVC pipe, wrapped in black tape, and it sits in a cup holder near the dashboard. It works great, and fits any car.
Heidi, give me a day of being a smartass, and I bet I can come up with some interesting names to get called... lol.
Now it is 63 degrees! Wow, the temps are dropping fast!
Whats the temp in your area AJ??
Good afternoon guys! How's life everywhere...uh..Anyway...I dont makey any sensey right now..I needa calm down...
So! Anything interesting going on right now? I'm about to open gr3.
Haha Zack! My high today was only 32F! It's currently 30F now. Last night got up to -12C and windchill made it -19! Brr it was a cold night..
Zack, it is... *goes and checks the temp.... exactly 55 degrees. And dropping faster than I can type this. lol
AWWWW shoot sory heidi thay won't uploade
lol that was fun, we just had the line go through. it started raining, and it just stayed like that, and I was just about to go back inside, and all the sudden BOOM, it was raining, and then it was pouring and hailing (up to 1/2 inch) and the wind was somewhere between 40 and 60 MPH. I even got some video, even though it isn't the best.
that was the most fun I've had in a Thunderstom in a long time lol.
Wow Kenny! Too cold for comfort...lol.
AJ... Believe it or not it is now 60 degrees!
Never seen the temps drop so fast!
I have... once, I think... lol. It doesn't happen very often obviously, so it's a big deal. It's now 53 here, wait-52. haha.
Sorry guys, but I gotta go. See ya tomorrow!
Now 59 degrees! brrrr!
I have to leave also... food's ready! Yay! haha. See you guys later.
Final temp: 50! alskdfhaf
Hey there folks, been a chilly one here today. Temps have been dropping all day and we had a couple of snow showers. The heavy one that came through dropped vis to about 100 ft for time. With temps right around 36 the snow melted quickly since had been so warm yesterday. Winds have been blowing hard all to with gusts up around 45 mph.
Looking forward to more snow that will stick around the rest of the winter now. I`m ready.
Jim, we've been getting that all day up here in Winnipeg. Nothing serious, just bursts here and there. I think we're going to have to wait a while for the real stuff.

Hey its me again haven't posted in a while, but it seems like stuff is heading my way. Dang Nashville again, they always get it if its in Tennessee. Well I'll keep yall informed if anything develops in East TN, till I have to go to work
I was watching gr3 on t hose storms..Most of them are dying out though..2 severe warned cells now.
Tired going to bed se ya guys
New line forming to the west of the main stuff with a couple of meso tags.... Interesting? hmmmm
Yeah, I'm watching the seccond line myself, anyone think it'll blow up into anything or is it too late?
Hey all!! Had a lil flurry here this morning!! I got a quick vid I'll upload in a bit!! Nothing impressive Nor Lake enhanced!! But our first of the season!! It's still flurrying a lil!!
I agree it's smart to keep some stuff pirvate here Caleb!! There's a lot of folks who don't post here, but read the blog!!
I am a lil concerned for your safety and well being!! If anything bad does start to happen make sure to notify Reed or one of us here immediately!!
It looks like the U.P. could see 5 to 10" tonight!! Damn Yoopers, right Reed!! lol!!
Haha, There's some snow NW of me heading for me! It's strengthening but..I don't think I'll see anything but a small furry...Have to wait till about mid november-early december for the nice 20-30 cm snowfalls.
If ya wanna see a Lake effect event, watch Marquette MI!! It's crazy on GR!!!
Hopefully getting some rain or more here in Va.......! AS for Caleb, well, ........it wasn't so much WILL was upset about him not giving his town out, but CELEB called him an Idioit!........as I recall not too long ago he pulled a fast one on me too. SO I pretty much ignore him, SO WILL please DON'T feel bad, He is only 10. Probably wishes he was 20.........but well. ;)
They always get the good stuff!! They might even have a chance to fire up there sleds tonight and tomorrow!! =( We need a good snowy season, last year we didn't nearly enough snow, and the snow we got didn't show up til March 1st!
Brady, when I want a snow fix, I'm making a trip to Duluth ;) hehe. What's up everyone?
Not much here!! Just admiring how everyone leaves right before I get home!! =( If ya wanna snow fix, ya might wanna go to MI!! We have just a very very light flurry here!!
haha. Ok, I'll keep that in mind. Or, since it's closer, I'll just go to Colorado, since it's closer ;) I'd still make an effort to take a trip that way though, so don't feel left out. lol.
And yeah, they seem to leave in a hurry.... oh well.
About mid February We'll be out of the really cold stuff and into some good snow!! If it isn't like last year!!
haha. Same here, except our schedule for snow varies drastically. I think I've told the story of the Friday the 13th snow in April alot here, but yeah, that's one example ;)
I do remember ya mentioning it a time or two!!
It just awesome watching it just dump on the U.P.!! Maybe soon that Lake effect will turn my direction!!
Cross thy digits, right? haha. It rarely works for us. All the little towns around Garden City will get snowed in, and we'll see, maybe, a trace. And I still have to go to school on a 22 degree day! grr! lol.
22 degrees?? They don't close schools here until it gets under -30!! not kidding!!
lol. Yeesh! You're makin me shiver! haha. Well, you must remember, your significantly further north than me, so 22 degrees is freakin cold here. lol.
Hehe!! I know, but it's still a 52degree difference!! That's a lot anywhere!!
They are really picky about closing schools in Minny!! Our kids are dumb enough!! hehe
Haha AJ, I know I'm way further north then you but, 22 degrees in the middle of winter would be lucky for us. Usually around Early December to Febuary our temperatures sit at -10 highs then gets to about -25 sometimes -40.. for the lows.
If you've never experienced that kinda cold, I can tell ya... You won't like it!! hehe It's kinda fun though, takin a leak outside and watching it evaporate before it hits the ground!!
Well, true, but still. They SHOULD close schools here when its that cold! I swear I'm cold-blooded. lol. And the kids are dumb everywhere. hehe
That's why I love it here!! We get a lil of everything!! From Canadian cold to Texas hot!!
haha. Brady, I have two words: done it! lol. And Kenny, it gets below zero at times in January mainly, but not for extended periods. That's awful hard on vehicles and such sitting outside at night.
I can imagine it get pretty sh&tty in KS too!! The wind must get terrible!!
They're expecting waves from Marquette to Whitefish point to be 17 to 22ft!! that's freakin nuts!!
Oh yeah! That's the only reason our January ice storm was so bad, the wind drove the ice and snow onto the lines, where it froze rapidly. The 40-foot electric towers we have outside of town just crumbled like no one's business cause of the wind-driven frozen slush.
I had a bad experience with an ice storm like that a few years ago!! I was lucky to not have a giant frozen pine crash on my truck!!
That would've been sad to see. Same thing happened here, except it was a power line instead of an old dead tree. My dad's old Bronco hasn't had the greatest experiences in winter...
The trees that were crashing that night were old, but far from dead!! lots of power poles and lines came down!!There was intense lightning, but it was green and I realized it wasn't lightning, it was transformers exploding throughout town!!This town was messed up like an f2 came ripping through!! My buddy and I made some $$ the next day with our chainsaws!! hehe I love capitalizing on disasters!! JK
haha. Well, we do the same here, of course. How do I make my money some days when it snows? Why, by using the Bobcat and doing a little snow removal ;) hehe. It's pretty good pay.
That's what we like to here AJ!! hehe! I thought you were gonna say go shovel some old ladies porch or something!! but the bobcat works too!! hehe
Well, the only old ladies in my neighborhood get someone else to shovel their driveway, so I don't know... I bet they'd be happy to let me have at it with a snow blower. lol
I'm gonna miss blowing snow for my grandpa this winter!! That was one of my favorite things to do in the winter!! This will be the first winter since I was like 12 I don't get to do that!! =(
Yeah, I kinda know how you feel. My grandma passed this last year, and we used to shovel her huge driveway, and she'd be so tickled for it. Ah well, I guess we'll have to get back to clearing our own ;)
Hey, I've got to go! Catcha later dude! Peace!
Thanks Kim for noticing that fact. A.J, when you come through Colorado make sure to hit me up man. You have my ifo on my myspace page. So just make sure to email me and then we can exchange numbers or something.
Sorry to hear that Brady, and A.J! My great grandpa finally passed due to brain cancer. It was ahorrible ordeal. I used to shovel snow, rake leaves, and anything else he would find for me to do. But he always paid good! :)
Well today was pretty boring..I have to do my homework still and study for a social test tomorrow. I added a new logo to my site, it's pretty cool and creative I guess.
My grandpa paid me great!! He'd buy me anything I wanted to a point!! and if was something spendy I wanted, Him and I would figure a way I could pay for it!! Man I was spoiled!! He died just under a year ago from complications he had from a stroke a year before!! Just terrible!! but I know he's proud of me for what I've done for him!! He would really be proud if he Knew I've been into chasing storms!!

Reed,
The date on the video of the week is off by a day. It was June 27, 1992. Only reason I notice it cause I will never forget that day and I have searched for info on it alot. I am like the only one in my hometown who did not see that F4 that day. Even my grandma saw it from halfway across the county. I was 40 miles to the south in Amarillo looking at one of the most impressive towers ever. I use to have the newspaper somewhere with with a really nice picture of it. There are also alot of good video local people got of it, but you would have to go door to door there to find them.
AJ they dont cancel schools here until it get to about -35C which is i dont what in ferinheit. But ya when its that cold its not even funny cold. But Im used to that weather and Im making a trip to North or South Carolina this winter with my dad.
Good morning people. Actually I haven't went to bed yet, so goodnight is more in order. Just bored i guess! Later
..A blustery taste of winter..
With unseasonably cool Arctic air flooding across southern Ontario
today courtesy of a fall storm centered this morning just north of
Lake Huron most areas will be experiencing their first taste of
winter over the next couple of days.
Lake effect showers are already being generated off of Lake Huron
and Georgian Bay early this morning in a strong and chilly westerly
flow. Temperatures over the higher ground west and northwest of the
Golden Horseshoe have become cold enough early this morning for a
Few flurries to mix in with the showers at times. A few wet flurries
have been reported as far south as Kitchener and Windsor early this
morning. The lake effect showers are expected to become more intense
and extend further inland by this afternoon. In fact as the airmass
may become unstable enough for isolated thunderstorms to spark some
excitement over a few locales with the greatest chance of thunder
near the shorelines of Lake Huron and Georgian Bay. Brief heavy
Downpours..Strong and gusty winds..And even some small hail are
possible as a result.
As ever colder air continues to flood in temperatures inland from
the Great Lakes will drop to near or a little below freezing
Tonight resulting in a changeover from showers to flurries over the
higher ground in the snowbelts. This will set the stage for the
First accumulating lake effect snow of the season. The flurries may
become heavy at times with local snowfall amounts of 10 to 15 cm
quite possible by Wednesday morning over higher ground and lesser
amounts near the Great Lakes where the flurries will be very wet and
possibly mixed with showers. Some of the flurries may make it into
The Golden Horseshoe area tonight..Although no significant
accumulations are expected.
Looks like im going to get some lake affect showers today.
Maybe a snowstorm for the Miss and Ohio Valleys in mid Nov around the 13th or so. A couple of the models are hinting at one.
A few flurries here in Central Ohio today after 66 and severe warnings on Monday. Just wait 5 mins in Ohio the weather will change.
MAJOR early season lake effect event! 12 inches reported overnight in Champion MI in the Upper Peninsula. There would be about 10 blog posts about this if I wasn't getting dominated by food poisoning!
Hey Reed. Food poisioning isnt fun i had it earlier this year and believe I feel your pain right now.
BRAT diet, Reed! AAAAA!!!!!! Don't get dehydrated!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRAT_diet
What the hell did you eat to cause that crap man? So we know what the heck to stay away from! Hope you get to feeling better soon!
Hey guys! Whats up?? It is chilly today with the current temp only 54 degrees! Not to mention it was 73 degrees for a high yesterday. What a difference a day makes.
The NWS has issued a freeze warning for my area!! Tonights low will be 29 degrees! AAAAAAAAAHHHHH adhjkhdahfksklusdjs;
Freezing rain warning to my west...By the looks of it the systems pushing west but I highly doubt I would get to see any of it today/tonight. But tomorrow afternoon I could possibly see it! I have a chance of rain/snow showers..And I'm predicting a bit of a mix.

Hello James Reynolds! :D
Hope you're doing better, Reed.
Hey Heidi!! Thanx for the link!! This looks much better than the show itself!! I was hoping the show would be a lil more informative than it is, but this looks like something I could tell my buddies to watch!!
The BRAT diet is working!!! Thanks Heidi!
