Have a holly-jolly chase week
May 05, 2009 - 10:14 AM - by Tim Vasquez
Is everybody in Oklahoma (and nearby) enjoying the November-like weather this week? Though it has probably occurred at some point in years past, I cannot recall seeing anything so cold and gloomy in May. I vaguely recall this might have happened in mid-June 1979 but I don't have any records offhand to thumb through.

For those who aren't following things, our highs on Saturday in central Oklahoma were only in the 50s, and we've only seen low- to mid-60s this week with plenty of... [Read More]

"Global Warming" and Hurricane Season 2009
May 02, 2009 - 11:18 PM - by Tony Propp
Hey everyone, I am going to be doing a hurricane tracking project this season. Before the season my tracking partner and I are discussing "Global Warming" and how it will effect the hurricane season. I believe we are in a neutral state this year so no El Nino or La Nina, this would be a good season to tell if global warming is actually so effective that it is effecting ocean temperatures. My partner believes we are actually in a global cooling because of how long the winter has... [Read More]

Well both models agree with high instability very high, 5000+ , into C. Oklahoma down into Texas. Great moisture 75 DP will be from C. OK down into Texas also. I see a nose on the low pressure in S.C. OK. Skew Ts get upto 95% Supercell Potential. But with the hodographs, I dont really see much curvature. THE BIG PROBLEM is with the cap haha, hopefully the convective temperature can come down 3 or 4 degrees. Lets see what the models do.

Friday looks like it may be yet another severe weather event near the Red River and I think this one could be a very productive day. Based on the 12z NAM Cape and moisture will be no problem and the shear looks pretty good with great veering with height creating large forecasted hodographs at Wichita Falls. A nice dryline bulge and warm front are looking to setup basically right on or just a hair south of the Red River and I think anything that can initiate and ride the warm front could produce...

5/6/09 REPORTS: KS
May 07, 2009 - 12:33 AM - by Jim Saueressig
I went out after a cell heading into Linn County thinking that I would get close enough for some good lightning shots by the time I got halfway to it in Anderson county. I noticed it was starting to show some decent structure and a few minutes later GRLVL3 started showing a meso. There was no catching this thing and I never seen a single flash of lightning but the structure was pretty awesome for Eastern KS. Here are a few of the shots, you can find many more on my ...
