A RECORD DAY...
JUNE 17 2010 WILL GO DOWN AS THE DAY WITH THE GREATEST SINGLE DAY
TORNADO TOTAL IN MINNESOTA HISTORY. COMBINING THE TOTALS FROM
CHANHASSEN... DULUTH AND LA CROSSE...THERE WERE 27 TORNADOES.

HOWEVER...THE GRAND FORKS NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OFFICE HAS NOT
YET BEEN ABLE TO FINALIZE THEIR JUNE 17 TOTAL. THEY HAD MANY
TORNADOES IN THEIR AREA...INCLUDING TORNADOES RATED EF4 AT WADENA
AND ALMORA. THUS IT IS LIKELY THAT THE STATEWIDE TOTAL FOR JUNE 17
WILL BE IN THE 40S. THIS WILL EASILY ECLIPSE THE OLD RECORD OF 27
SET ON JUNE 16 1992.

THE SUMMER OF 2010...
WHILE JUNE 17 WILL CONTRIBUTE TO A HUGE NUMBER OF TORNADOES TO THE
STATEWIDE TALLY THIS YEAR...THERE HAVE BEEN MANY MORE TORNADO DAYS
SINCE THEN. IT HAS JUST BEEN WAY TOO BUSY TO TALLY ALL THE DAMAGE
SURVEYS... CORROBORATE SPOTTER REPORTS...VIEW ALL THE VIDEO AND
PHOTOS...AND CROSS CHECK DETAILS WITH RADAR...BUT IT LOOKS QUITE
LIKELY THAT 2010 WILL SET A RECORD FOR TORNADOES IN ONE YEAR. THAT
RECORD OF 74 WAS SET IN 2001.

05:00 AM TaddParris: Well looked nice at 1:28pm lol. Cant post from my phone on this site or else I would have backed down sooner.
06:28 PM TaddParris: Very impressive clearing behind the WF in swMN. Well defined WF to add with decent moisture behind it. Starting to think it will certainly be a tornado day. GL to those going out..
01:43 PM Michael.Stanga: Test from my phone
06:14 AM JohnW: MN Skywarn Workshop Update: The 2011 workshop will be held on April 9, 2011 at the University of St. Thomas, Minneapolis Campus. The keynote speaker will be Dr. Paul Markowski from Penn State! More details at: «link»
07:56 PM JohnW: Regarding tomorrow from SWODY2: GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE SHEAR PROFILES...A STRONG TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT...
01:59 PM ericw: I checked this morning, and now it has it hitting the eastern seaboard making landfall near Maine.
08:41 PM TaddParris: Wow 240 GFS has a massive hurricane type storm nailing Florida. How often do models verify on things like this I wonder? Kind of comes out of nowhere.
12:10 AM Chris White: taxpayer savings...no other comment.
02:31 AM JohnW: Sounds like they knew the guy... I wonder what the deal was. He probably thought they stole an idea or something...
08:28 PM Michael.Stanga: Standoff at the Discovery Channel, link is to CNN .com «link»
03:15 AM richg: 71/55. It's nice to finally have a cold front go through that has cooler drier air behind it.
04:12 AM Jeremy DenHartog: The storm in SW MN isn't looking as good now - kind of surprised there aren't any warnings yet on the bow that is forming out in eastern SD
03:50 AM Jeremy DenHartog: Possible 'tail end charlie' trying to form down by Slayton, MN in southwest MN?
03:23 AM JohnW: Fun or Busines? Could be fun!
02:13 AM TonyP: 240 hours is good, I'll be back from Texas by then. :)
01:10 AM JohnW: Interesting little couplet near Montrose, SD for the last couple scans...
01:07 AM JohnW: Jeez.... You guys see the 12Z ECMWF 240 hour prog for Fiona? «link»
02:00 PM Jeremy DenHartog: Though the leaves do look nice...it still bums me out
01:59 PM Jeremy DenHartog: Seeing leaves change colors is like mother natures way of saying 'ha ha, now you have to wait 6 months' :(
01:57 PM Jeremy DenHartog: Yep, wind/hail would be nice...hopefully we will see some of that tomorrow in southern MN - I hate the end of chase season
01:55 PM JacobT: Strongly considering it. I don't have a lot of faith in the day...but heck, it's almost September, so even some nice wind/hail would be a plus
01:54 PM Jeremy DenHartog: Anyone going out today? Wish I could but I can't this time. I would target somewhere just west of Fargo if I could go out
04:41 PM JohnW: Rich, you should have waited until Wednesday! I see some potential in Monday/Tuesday...
06:31 PM richg: Shut off the data and Allison House today. If we get some late season surprises I'll have to tether. RIP Chase Season 2010.
05:33 PM TonyP: I have zilch from MN this year.
02:04 PM Michael.Stanga: @JohnW - PM sent
01:38 PM JohnW: I'm especially looking for some Wadena stuff.
03:50 AM JohnW: To everyone else, I'm working on a video for use at the NWS state fair booth... If anyone else would like to contribute a minute or two of video, please shoot me an e-mail or post here. I am working on it now so let me know. If you could post a full quality AVI or DVPro compressed AVI, that'd be great. If you have HD content, we can use that to
03:48 AM JohnW: That'd be great Dean!
03:41 AM dean: I've got one John. You can be the first one to put my new cam. to real use :)
03:33 AM JohnW: I'll add that I just need it to capture some video into Final Cut for an NWS thing...
03:32 AM JohnW: Anybody have an HD camera that uses miniDV cassettes in HDV format that I can borrow for one evening? I can't find one...
11:03 PM TonyP: Check out the Mississippi radar loop. A line of training storms going due south. Seems rare.
12:59 PM D.Miller: Old school chasing..Them were the days... I think all the new chasers should learn to chase the old school way..
03:37 AM Jeremy DenHartog: Yep, we busted...ended up in Brookings, SD and storms tried to fire in the area but ultimately just couldn't break the cap...bummer
03:05 AM SaraT: I've nowcasted for Jacob over the phone before....FAIL :)
