r/weather

I don't have access to AC in eastern Pennsylvania. What the hell do I do?? It's been so hot the past 3 days...

I took this shot of a merging supercell system creating maximum chaos in the sky for a few brief moments before it closed in on me. Shot handheld, 14mm, f/40, 1/40s, ISO 64. All photos taken by me, Adam Jackson, a Houston, Texas based storm chaser and photographer.

As a meteorologist who gets asked about the weather all the time, I realized that most local and national weather app are missing important data that people actually want

So I created my own app to fill the gap: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/kc-weathernow/id6760990373

1. A Real Meteorologist in Your Pocket What Matters Today is written by me three times daily — morning, afternoon, and overnight. Plus a daily morning briefing delivered as a push notification at your chosen time. Not a computer model. A KC meteorologist who actually knows this city's weather.

2. Storm Awareness Built for You The moment a tornado or severe thunderstorm warning covers your current location, a banner tells you you're inside it. Push alerts go only to people in the storm's path. Tap ME on the radar to see where you are in the storm. See lightning strikes in real time.

3. Allergy & Health Forecasts Pollen counts sourced directly from Children's Mercy Hospital's actual measured data. Plus an Aches & Pains barometric pressure forecast for joints, sinuses, and migraines. Features that no national app offers.

4. Golf, Lake & Outdoor Forecasts Detailed golf conditions for when you should schedule a tee time. Yard work forecast to tell you when to mow. Lake forecasts for Table Rock, Lake of the Ozarks, Truman, and Perry, including water temperature and solunar peak times for hunting and fishing. Built for how KC residents actually spend their weekends.

5. KC Sports Weather Game day forecasts for the Royals, Chiefs, Sporting KC, and KC Current. Know what to wear before you head to the stadium and how the weather may impact the game by helping the baseball soar or field goals bend to the right.

has anyone ever seen this before? is this abnormal? and also does that mean there is a higher chance of tornadoes? I am pretty terrified of tornadoes and would like yalls input

Finally , after so long i've gotten a full data scan of the elie f5 and i wanted to show you guys it ! if you want me to send a full gif of it i'll send it

I somewhat understand what’s going on…

1. How does the setup of the low impact the moisture moving straight north? I feel like this doesn’t happen very often especially right along the first 20 miles east of the foothills in northern Colorado.

2. What impact does the warm air right on the corner of the low have on moisture/related weather around it?

3. Northern colorado east of the mountains gets the most precip in May…according to Colorado climate center data. We had another larger storm that dropped 1.5 inches of precip a few weeks ago and another 1 inch today. Why is this time of the year so perfect for these kinds of storms in Northern Colorado vs Monsoon during summer in the more eastern plains and south of the state?

Any help would be appreciated thanks!!!

As well as dust in my eye! (Southern Ontario)

what do you do

My girlfriend and I got caught in a severe thunderstorm stopping for lunch in Kearney, Nebraska. We heard tornado sirens and got an alert for tennis ball sized hail. So we hit the road hoping to beat the storm, only to have to hide under an overpass to avoid getting smashed by golf ball hail. But we are safe now with just a couple cracks in the windshield.

Edit: I am from the west and was not familiar with storm safety on the road. I’ve learned that sitting under an underpass during a storm is highly dangerous. It was irresponsible and I hope others don’t make the same mistake!
