Quite surprising to me, but still no tornado watches in the country at this hour.

Rough day, beyond weather.

No idea of what happened elsewere, but here in the midwest, we saw a wind event. Biggest healthy tree I saw down was 12 inch diameter, one 15 inch dead one. Yard damage, maybe a few aluminum soffits. Further south there are larger pockets of similar destruction, up to block wide areas, per local news.

We saw zero insolation today, best guess says we never punched the cap, even to midlevel updrafts.

That does NOT make all that energy go away, or make it smart to ignore the cold front tomorrow. The potential is there, the spring is stretched, whether it lets go over the Atlantic or the Atlantic coast, makes no difference, that potential energy will be released.

Glad it wasn’t here.

Wish I could analyze more, but bandwidth is limited for now
