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.. |

Regarding tomorrow from SWODY2: GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE SHEAR PROFILES...A STRONG TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT... |

I checked this morning, and now it has it hitting the eastern seaboard making landfall near Maine. |

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. |

Sounds like they knew the guy... I wonder what the deal was. He probably thought they stole an idea or something... |

71/55. It's nice to finally have a cold front go through that has cooler drier air behind it. |

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 |

Possible 'tail end charlie' trying to form down by Slayton, MN in southwest MN? |

Though the leaves do look nice...it still bums me out |
| 30-08 13:59:06 |

Seeing leaves change colors is like mother natures way of saying 'ha ha, now you have to wait 6 months'  |
| 30-08 13:57:12 |

Yep, wind/hail would be nice...hopefully we will see some of that tomorrow in southern MN - I hate the end of chase season |
| 30-08 13:55:42 |
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 |

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 |
| 28-08 16:41:04 |

Rich, you should have waited until Wednesday! I see some potential in Monday/Tuesday... |

Shut off the data and Allison House today. If we get some late season surprises I'll have to tether. RIP Chase Season 2010. |

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 |

That'd be great Dean! |

I've got one John. You can be the first one to put my new cam. to real use |
| 25-08 3:33:50 |

I'll add that I just need it to capture some video into Final Cut for an NWS thing... |

Anybody have an HD camera that uses miniDV cassettes in HDV format that I can borrow for one evening? I can't find one... |

Check out the Mississippi radar loop. A line of training storms going due south. Seems rare. |

Old school chasing..Them were the days... I think all the new chasers should learn to chase the old school way.. |

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 |

SPC took back operations from Scott AFB at 1Z. |

Radar makes it way too easy, with Tony saying thats a new school tool. Having a nowcaster describe radar to you over a cell phone is old school. Too bad many chasers will never experience those moments. |
| 19-08 22:38:02 |

|
Eric: I wouldn't call having radar "old school". |
| 19-08 22:37:28 |

If you look at the 2:30 outlook, it was issued from Illinois. I suspect the outage has something to do with that. |
| 19-08 22:36:52 |
TonyP

Oh and make sure your surface obs aren't a GRL3 placefile... those are not updated either. |

I accept your challenge |

Time to chase old-school! No data, just surface ops and some radar. Now it's time to prove how good of chasers you really are.  |

Power outage at the SPC - they are in backup mode. |

No updates for me either...thanks for the link Tony |

When in doubt go to Kamala: http://kamala.cod.edu/SPC/latest.acus01.KWNS.html |
