Re: 2024 Hurricane Season Discussion

Some alarming data... Ccdapture.PNG ABC13-Travis Herzog By the way, it was former National Hurricane Center Director Bill Read who first tipped me off to this astonishing correlation. There is a way to extend this data earlier than 1950 (although the data is not as sound), but the general correlatio...

Re: May 2024

Well that was a wild ride here in timbergrove, glad to finally getting power back but understandable that it’s been taking them so long. I love a good strong (but well behaved) thunderstorm, but man that got dicey in a hurry. Sounded like a freight train for a good 10 minutes. Here’s to hoping that...

Re: May 2024

As far as rainfall depiction, i wouldn't trust the models in this range,as they have had a habit this season of overdoing the intensity of the Mexican ridge.(Especially the GFS) i feel chances are that several of the disturbances(storm complexes to be specific) that the models show moving in from th...

Re: May 2024

I finally just got my power back. I love my tropical cyclones but please nothing more than a strong tropical storm or category one this year. I don’t want to go through this again anytime soon. Sorry if you mentioned this already, but did your property receive any damage? No thank goodness outside ...

Re: What started your interest in weather?

For me it was the 1997 ice storm and Tropical storm Frances.We woke up to water entering our house the morning after Frances made landfall. We had to be rescued,being a kid at the time I thought it was fun lol.

Re: May 2024

I honestly think the damage locally was worse than from Ike.Trees and power lines/poles are down everywhere and massive trees have went through several roofs in the Heights area.Many of these trees survived Ike but did not survive this storm. I still have more pictures believe it or not. There is l...

Unfortunately there are reports of 4 deaths from the storm today. The damage across the city is insane. There are buildings that had complete wall failure.
