What exactly are you doing to assist those in our southeast U.S. in their time of need, instead of griping about OUR Vice President Harris? If you must know, I’m in Asheville, North Carolina, today volunteering assistance
This is a frequent harasser (this is his 3rd message to me this morning) and I block most of his comments as they are not constructive. However, I'm letting this one through because he has issued a challenge not just to me but to all of us. I wrote a HUGE check to the Salvation Army's Helene Relief Fund Saturday. I would like to request that all my readers to the same to the extent they are able: https://give.helpsalvationarmy.org/give/166081/#!/donation/checkout?c_src=USNDisaster&c_src2=disasterModule
BEFORE the disaster began, I worked day and night to get the message out that "catastrophic" flooding was likely in the region and advised proactive evacuation. You can easily verify that for yourself by paging down and reading my posts. This was in spite of the NWS forecasting, "Heavy rainfall will likely result in locally considerable flash and urban flooding across portions of Florida, with isolated flash and urban flooding possible across the Southeast, Southern Appalachians, and the Tennessee Valley Wednesday through Friday. Minor to isolated moderate river flooding will be possible." A great understatement of the threat.
As Biden was at the beach (again) over the weekend and Harris was in the West at a fundraiser, I will continue to criticize them until they respond appropriately to this disaster!
Midnight: The East Coast Threat for Tornadoes and Severe Thunderstorms Has Ended 3:50pm. Tornado watch for the Middle Atlantic Region. 2:30pm Tornadoes are also forecast in the South. 2:20pm. A couple of tornadoes, hail and wind gusts to 65 mph are possible with these storms. This includes NYC and Philadelphia. 1:05pm. The tornado risk has been extended northward into New York. The brown area has a significant risk of tornadoes. Remember: if a tornado warning is issued, go to your basement and get under heavy furniture like a pool table. Of, if your basement is finished, get into the bathroom. Go ahead an put a couple of water bottles and, if appropriate, diapers in your shelter area. Wear shoes. If you don't have a basement or safe room, go to the lowest floor and get into a bath or closet in the middle of your home. Children should be put in the bathtub. I'll update later today.
After 65 mph winds went through Wichita, we have been without power for 35 minutes. So, I am going to have to end coverage for the night (using backup systems to write this). Scroll down for the forecast of tornadoes and severe thunderstorms for Sunday and Sunday night. Please read down for the latest forecasts regarding this dangerous tornado and damaging wind situation! 5:40pm, a new "regular" tornado watch has been issued for north central Kansas. Note that wind gusts to 80 mph are likely in this storm in addition to tornadoes and giant hail. Please make sure friends and relatives in the area are aware of the danger in the area outlined in red below plus the red area outlined at 2:50pm In addition to "several strong tornadoes," hail to 4.8" in diameter is forecast along with wind gusts to 80 mph. Now is the time for persons living in mobile homes, manufactured homes and those with mobility issues should be making plans!! Do not wait until a tornado warn...
Note: An Updated Forecast is Available HERE Freezing Rain The National Weather Service has now issued winter weather advisories, two warnings and a watch. It may be a bit too large but, when it comes to freezing rain and slick roads, caution is usually the better course of action. Here's a color code: Deep purple is an ice storm warning; serious condition where power outages are possible. Pink is a winter storm warning for significant icing. Deep green is a winter storm watch. I don't know why this is still a watch. If I were on the forecast desk I would have a winter storm warning for icing. Dark blue is a winter weather advisory, a lesser condition, for icing. Here is a view of the entire watch/warning/advisory area. The small area of green in Illinois is for flooding and, in Nebraska, for snow. Here is a forecast of freezing rain amounts; totals to 6am Tuesday. Color codes: Yellow is 0.25 to 0.50 inches. Power outages may occur in this areas. Deep blue i...
