April 15th, 2012 Outlook

Here is my outlook for tomorrow: At this point, a lot of Wisconsin is in some pretty good shape to see some severe weather including some isolated tornadoes, damaging winds, and hail. Illinois is also in some good shape to see some severe weather as well, but Northern Illinois is in the best shape to see severe weather. This threat may also extend into Missouri all the way down into Houston, Texas but at this point, I am highlighting Northern IL and Southern WI as the best states to see severe weather. I won't issue a "serious red alert [high risk]", but this is a serious situation worth watching due to the >60 knots of shear in a favorable environment for storms. The SPC in Norman, Oklahoma has already issued a MODERATE risk for a lot of WI for tomorrow, and I can see that threat extending further south by the next SPC update. Stay tuned, and stay safe. Compared to today's ongoing tornado outbreak, this will not be as bad and it looks like more of a damaging wind threat, but I would still be wary of any watch or warning issued tomorrow, as it could end up getting very nasty.

Rain,Rain,Go Away! (Rant,Mostly About The EAS And The Bad Rains)Warning,Strong Language!

The rain here is making me pissed off. What's even worse,is it's not NEARLY over yet for me as the rain is forming into a solid shield and headed NE/my way. THAT'S JUST FUCKING GREAT! I hate this rain,and it makes me feel like shit. (Sorry,I feel the need to swear during a rant.) Look,the EAS has been waking me up since 1:30 this morning with flash flood warnings,scaring the shit out of me during a deep sleep! >:( This rain makes the remaints of Gustav look like child's play! As I am trying to go through the day without going insane over the EAS warnings that feel like they are being issued by the minute (but are somewhat important because people might be out,and their cars could get submerged underwater),the rain stops! And,now it's back to flooding rains and more EAS warnings being issued by the minute that could make the most patent person in the world go insane! Damn it,I haven't been this angry and scared by the EAS in a while! Rain,rain go the hell AWAY,come back in late March 2009! Remember in January when the midwest had those severe storms that were unusual for that time of year? Do you remember August 23rd,or August 4th of this year,when there were crazy storms galore? The EAS annoyed me (but sorta saved me ATST)then,but now,the EAS hasn't annoyed me any more than today,which will probably continue into tomorrow! I hate the EAS right now,but,I probably won't on Monday,when it will be sunny again! And,there might be bad water damage to look at that I don't want to look at!


BOTTOM LINE:I HATE THIS RAIN,AND THE EAS HAS BEEN A LITTLE ANNOYING TODAY.

Love,

PS:My A/C turning on sounds like a tornado siren turning on.
