Bonus Chase Day 2 21st May Colorado bound
Dan the Man replied to Paul Sherman's topic in Storm Chase USA
My area has just had a severe thunderstorm warning expire - the loud beeps have just ended. Incredible skies here in Fayette Co, OH; don't think I've ever seen a sky so dark at 6pm. Scratch that - another warning enforced. -
Well I'm now in OH - TWC talking about CAPE around the 2000-2500 mark for tonight and tomorrow across the N/NE and dewpoints close to 70. Wowsa.

A couple of friends are flying into CVG Airport late tonight - one of which is quite a nervous flyer! Could be quite a bumpy ride looking at the forecast!

I mean generally - i.e. mid-late May into June. Looking at the long long range forecast, I see "strong T-storms" have been forecasted for the summer. -

I'm heading to Ohio in a couple of weeks - what's the "prospects of play" up that way, usually this time of year. Chances of seeing something severe? -
South East & East Anglia Regional Weather Discussion 07/01/14
Dan the Man replied to Snowangel-MK's topic in Regional
Its always the way in the winter - a rollercoaster ride! A trend over the last couple of years that 5-6 days out there is a big ramp to extreme weather. Gradually over the next couple of days there are downgrades, which then get upgraded again around 48 hours out.- 726 replies

Think there will be a fair few 'rescue' flights scheduled on Xmas Day to pick up stranded passengers diverted or cancelled because of this storm.- 986 replies

In all seriousness, if those charts firm up over the coming days for Christmas Day, there will be a lot of people not getting home for Christmas. Flights/trains cancelled again. -

Severe Storm System & Arctic Blast Thursday 5th Onwards

I notice the warnings haven't gone above yellow - surely, considering this storm was far worse than St Jude, it merits a far higher level of warning? -

Is there anything remotely wintery in the foreseeable future for us Southerners? At least the sun came out this afternoon rather than the "holding pattern" the weather seemed to be, in recent days.- 750 replies

South East & East Anglia Regional Weather Discussion 25/11/13
Dan the Man replied to Snowangel-MK's topic in Regional
Had a look at the models periodically throughout the weekend - absolutely nothing is set in stone. The models have been flipping back and forth, no one can say with any modicum of confidence what is going to happen in 100+ hours time. If I had to make a prediction, I'd say there is a low chance of wintry showers for the Home Counties. -
