Can you imagine! It would make for great stories. People would not believe you.

Love those Hawaiin snow reports. Elevation is key no matter where you may be!
If this latest forecast for the HV with all snow does not wake cp up, I am going to organize a search and rescue operation for him!

Ok, this is going to sound really odd, but did anybody else hear what sounded like a mix of thunder, fighter jets, and wind gusts from about 12am-2am this morning?? They were short (only about 2-4 seconds in duration) rumbles at random intervals and noise levels. I know it wasn’t thunder because there weren’t any thunderstorms/showers around, and it seemed too fleeting to be fighter jets (I get to see/hear fighter jets quite regularly down here, so I know what they sound like haha). Obviously, there was not nearly enough wind to sound like that lol what’s more, is my friend and coworker who lives by Wilkes-Barre, Pa also heard these. I have no idea what it could be, and certainly cannot find a reasonable explanation, so if anybody has some insight I’d love to hear it.

I actually caught a good video of one, so I’ll upload that once I get out of work.

[dkodgis]

Ray, we heard it here 100 miles away. It woke my wife and I up at the same time. I thought it was thunder but what was odd was its duration. 3-4 times and quite short...something like 5-8 seconds. It all happened quickly within a minute. It seemed to go away and we thought nothing more of it. We went back to bed. A few nights before, we heard the same thing but there was rain in the forecast (and it is raining now lightly) so again we thought "thunder"-but so short? I had never heard thunder be burpy. Area 52 in Harrisburg, mate.

From 51 members to 100 members. This will also be the first upgrade in Bologna new HPC center! More will be released later: https://t.co/ZxlyAzaMV0

Wow that is going to be nuts

[rb924119]

Increase in resolution = increase of number of computations = increased error = less reliable. In my opinion, of course. But look at what happened with their last major upgrade to include additional vertical resolution; ever since it hasn't been the same model.

Ahhhhh exactly what I said to my friend. The last upgrade after Sandy showed its vulnerability and even this past fall with storms and temperatures. The variability is going to be even more IMO since it will be more sensitive to the readings and data. Also, I'd like to see teh physics that are implementing as well and what they are taking into consideration.

Alaska is getting absolutely smoked with brutal cold adn snow as is Scandinavia region and the North to Central Tier of Russia and China.
Who controls teh Natural Gas that flows into Europe............Russia through I believe its 5 pipelines. Shame on them for putting this into the hands of Putin (ex KGB man and don't forget that, sure as heck he doesn't). Nuts n Bolts they're screwed (catch that little mechanical saying!) this winter and beyond if they do not rectify this.

I don’t think they’re changing the physics scheme, mugs, but I could be wrong. But I agree, I wish they’d just leave well enough alone. If it ain’t broke, they shouldn’t fix it lmao

I staying out of the politics, though

Pray for the folks in Arkansas, 1 mile wide debris field showing up on Radar. God help them!!

Insane down there. Holy Tornados!!!!

Yikes!!

Madonne…I feel awful for those people. Some videos circulating Twitter are terrible

That is a scary radar for sure.God be with all those in it's path.

A catastrophic violent #tornado is approaching Tiptonville and Samburg TN! Massive debris ball and ~220mph GTG shear on this long track tornado! This is life or death! Go to your tornado safe place now! Alert friends and family in the area please too! #mowx #tnwx pic.twitter.com/5R5qAXFzzB

Nursing home was just destroyed in Ark. Saying w casualties already.

MASSIVE Tornado that crossed I55 @ MM16 tossing / rolling Semi trucks. This tornado is the same as the Monette, AR tornado. This is going to be horrible when we see daylight. @NWSMemphis pic.twitter.com/41UFpuNsk7

OH MY THIS IS HORRIFIC!!

The “Tri-State Tornado” was likely just surpassed by the “Quad-State Tornado”. What a day (and it’s not over).

— Victo☈ Gensini (@gensiniwx) December 11, 2021

Tri State Tornado had 219 mile path length and 695 deaths. These tornados not even close to its league.

One of the most historic Long Track December Supercells of all time has now trekked across 4 different states and produced a violent #tornado . Near 200mph of GTG shear for almost hours now! Unreal. Prayers tonight . Mayfield KY area seek tornado safe place now! #kywx pic.twitter.com/w3C3PyJ3NF

The utter devastation of what occured last night in the SE and Midwest is just horrific. Town were levelled hundreds reported dead or missing from some on teh ground reports. As a weather weenie I have seen such maybe 2 other times in my 45 years of loving the weather. These Americans need prayers and help pronto peeps. The radar last night was like me lighting up my XMas tree with Torns, warnings inside of warnings, lightening and hail, debris rising 20-30K feet by some estimations and reports. Winds 200-250MPH by radar.



A warning inside a warning WTH???


Debris 30K field up ?? Said to have spread 6-30 miles if I am reading this correctly

Still in shock and awe at the longevity of the quad-state supercell last night. While this map shows approximate start and end times of the mesocyclone, most of it's life cycle had an extremely violent tornado, particularly between 1z and 5z. pic.twitter.com/Vnpx4ZSWBr

Heartbreaking and sad for all these poor people who passed and the survivors.Does anybody know of a relief agency that will help out there so I can make a donation?

Not yet Doc but my weather club at school that I run will be setting something up this week if you'd like. Part of our mission this year is to help those who have suffered loss from extreme wx, planetary events
