severe weather outbreak likely tomorrow across the midwest

[Chiefs Pantalones]

Said that if the sun stays out tomorrow along with the low pressure system coming in (if the clouds stay behind) and the temp rises in the 80s, it could get scary across the midwest.

[Simplex3]

If this is that dumb b**ch Horner I'm not going to sweat it until she predicts the apocalypse. Then maybe I'll break out my umbrella.

[Stinger]

Oh no we all DOOOOMMMMMMMED!!!!!!!!! I mean what will we do, how in the world did people survive with out the weather channel or doppler radar.

I don't know, but tell that to the 27 people that died on Sunday.

You know you love seeing her 24/7 on the TeeVee.

They're predicting all hell to break loose in Tulsa tomorrow.

The truth in that statement is astounding.

Couple years back: 15inches of snow I tell you!

Didn't snow.

Didn't snow.

Hell, she did this year, too! A few weeks back, we were going to get between 12-18 inches of snow. We got a dusting.

Not to sound crass or indignant here but sometimes bad things happen to good people. I just find it well funny some people tommorrow will be huddled around a tv set all day worried about of all things the weather.

[Skip Towne]

The weather people have improved greatly over the years. In the 60's I made fun of my mother for watching the weather on TV. They were rarely right back then. Now, they can tell you 3-4 days in advance when bad weather is approaching.

[morphius]

Its odd, thunderstorms have never really bothered me, but after my folks got hit with the F0 last weekend I'm getting a bit more nervous.

[Jenny Gump]

Oh no we all DOOOOMMMMMMMED!!!!!!!!! I mean what will we do, how in the world did people survive with out the weather channel or doppler radar.


ROFL

I know I will be really scared.

I figure as long as I stay away from trailer parks, I'll be fine.

But won't you need to go home?

No I know what you were saying, I was saying they probably watched the weather and still got burnt. Sometimes it happens.

[BryanBusby]

Bryan Busby says the storms will fail to generate into anything of much signifigance. The skies will clear in the late afternoon and I will be scooping the scene at The Plaza. Stop touching me in the naughty places, Larry Moore.

We've had some rain and thunder today. It's cleared up a little. We're supposed to really get it this evening. Of course, my boss won't be at work, putting me in charge. We have one lady who is deathly afraid of thunderstorms. I hope she stays home. She always causes a ruckus when she hears the slightest crack of thunder. If I didn't have to work, I'd say bring them on! I love thunderstorms!

Disturbing.

I went out and tied down the trailor.

[cmh6476]

is that why they were giving royals tickets away 2 for 1? :shrug:

[SPchief]

Man the weather today is absolutly HORRIBLE.



Its like 70 degrees and sunny outside.

Everybody be safe in these severe conditions.

[OnTheWarpath15]

No, that's the only way to get more than 5,000 fans to a game, unless it's the home opener or the series vs. the Cardinals........

They had 12k yesterday.

[OnTheWarpath15]

OK, so I exaggerated to prove a point......

Sorry.

12K, really? What is that, like 1/3 of capacity?

[leviw]

Because Raytown is in the center of the universe, of course no one else in the world should be concerned...


Hopefully if you're at/near Junction City along 177, you're in your tornado shelter. Manhattan residents better get ready, too. This one's packing baseball-size hail.

[Gonzo]

I don't know, but tell that to the 27 people that died on Sunday.
I knew all 27 of those people and they were all mass murderers and puppy rapers.

[Bowser]

The weather was severely nice today.

[leviw]

82 mph winds here in Manhattan just a few minutes ago and golf ball sized hail.

One Tornado watch. (Expires at 9)
Two Tornado Warnings (Marshall and Washington, both expire at 6)
Two Severe Thunderstorm Warnings (Pottawatomie and Riley, both expire at 6)

[Skip Towne]

Whee!! We just had 10 minutes of marble sized hail. It covered the ground.

[Skip Towne]

Tornado on the ground near Independence, Ks. That's where Greg 63 works. He just saw one last week.

[tk13]

On the weather channel, they mentioned there's a multiple-vortex tornado on the ground in northern Kansas, heading toward Beatrice, NE.

[teedubya]

I got bombarded with a couple sprinkles today... It was treacherous.

[Old Dog]

82 mph winds here in Manhattan just a few minutes ago and golf ball sized hail.
There have been 5 tornadoes confirmed west of there (2 in Abilene, and one each in Chapman, Clay Center, and Solomon). There was also some BASEBALL sized hail on Ft. Riley.
I think it has all moved out of this area though now.

One of the tornadoes was within 1/4 mile of my house, but didn't do any damage to any homes that I've noticed.

[petegz28]

[BucEyedPea]

Do you people generally have basements there?

We don't in Florida which make the tornado warnings scary...but if I had a basement I'd be more relaxed. Then our tornadoes aren't as bad as yours.
I'm a 3 hurricane survivor though.

You have those little inferior tornadoes. We call those wind eddies. We have REAL tornadoes.

To answer your question, though, yes many folks do have basements. The trend now is toward tornado shelters or "safe rooms" in the house. The shelters are pre-fab metal pods that you bury near your house. I saw two safe rooms last week. One was completely formed out of concrete but looked just like a normal study or computer room. The other, the owner pulled back a throw rug in the master bedroom to expose a heavy metal door in the floor. He opened the door to show me a concrete walled round room that seated 10 people. I suggested he put in a security type camera so he could watch the tornado pass over him.

I suggest that's where he stores his wife when she gets out of line.

That's a damn good idea.

[arrowheadnation]

I got some video of some strong rotation on a gust front on the West side of Manhattan today. It's on my phone though, so it doesn't look very good. And it's not like I could send it to a news crew or anything because all my retarded buddies can be heard in the background saying...."that's a f*cking tornado...look at that mother f*cker!....Son of a b!tch!....that isn't f*cking coming over here is it?"

I sat in the Manhattan High parking lot and watched the same thing. There was indeed some funky rotation. Then it started hailing and I busted my ass home.

I heard of those....I want something like that but we can't go underground 'cause they say the water table is too high. They showed tests on TV with shooting objects smashing into them going...oh I don't remember the speed but it was supposed to be close to the same speed...and they held up. I'd like to line my walk-in closet with those blocks...bettah than being a sittin' duck and I'd even preserve my wardrobe,shoes and purses. ROFL

It stayed dry...

[alanm]

We're in a Blizzard warning at the moment.. From now until sometime tomorrow afternoon. Calling for 2 to 4" of snow and sustained winds of 30 to 45mph. :eek: With peak gusts in the 60's. This has been a weird spring :hmmm:

[chefsos]

You know, I've decided I'm not gonna bitch about the weather here anymore. You Midwestern folks get some seriously weird shit.

Anyways, I hate spring/early summer, and severe weather is one of the biggest reasons I'd never be able to live in the plains; it's bad enough here, as the 19 fatalities in West TN alone last week showed. In fact, severe weather is one of the biggest reasons I'd love to eventually move to Seattle, or something.

Man that weather was so severe that I am still cleaning up the twig that fell from the storm.

Yeah, The blizzard we were supposed to get didn't quite shape up either. It's partly cloudy with no snow and a little windy and the low 40's at the moment. It's too late for snow any way.
