Cross country storm.

[Dave N]

Sounds like a possible nasty one rolling across the states the next couple of days. Supposed to roll over us tomorrow night. Local weather is calling for wind gusts of up to 70 or 80 with some pockets even higher. Time to get everything inside and buttoned up tight. Hope it's not too bad for those of us in the path.

Red flag warning here tomorrow morning 7am til 10pm. High winds, whiplashed hi-voltage, and dry fuel.

 

[Dave N]

I forgot to mention tornadoes and 1 inch hail possible with the high winds.

 

[Dave N]

Missouri and Iowa now, of course it will be dark when it gets here. Winds right now are 30+. Once I get dinner off the grill I can get everything closed up and hunker down.

 

[Nick87]

Car fore on 39 has spread. I can see it from here, coming this general direction. Wind is ripping.

 

[Dave N]

News now has the hail at up to 2 inches. Ugh.

 

[Nick87]

News now has the hail at up to 2 inches.

God I hope not.

News now has the hail at up to 2 inches. Ugh.

Where you seeing that? Local news? I'm not seeing any detail like that on our normal weather station.

 

[Dave N]

Peoria station.

 

[Gellar]

News now has the hail at up to 2 inches. Ugh.

I heard softball size in SE Iowa.

Watched the dust storm roll into OKC around 10am. 50 car pile up on I40 near Amarillo caused by low visibility from dust. Wind is absolutely ripping and fires have started popping off not a good recipe.

About halfway across Iowa now.

 

[hank4elk]

Hit here hard last night. 40-60mph and snow.
Hit 80 on the east side of state.
Wildfire in Wagon Mound now,evacuations.

Next one is on us and more snow tonight, winds down. For now.

Another round next week.

 

[buckbull]

Have seen a number of trees and big branches fall while out hiking with the dog. Wind is really ripping. Hope I don't lose power. Dog and I are on back porch waiting for the storm. Should be here in an hour.

 

[Dave N]

Wind here has calmed down a lot. Calm before the storm. We had 81 or 82 this afternoon. Won't be going to bed until it's passed through. Hope the power stays on. Or gets fixed quick.

 

[WestKyHunt]

Car is in the garage.
Hail and tornadoes are possible. High wind a definite.

 

[Dave N]

Its here!

 

[Dave N]

Not horrible. Strong winds with small hail hitting the house. Lights flickering now and then. Had some lightning but now it's gone. House is fairly well insulated from outside noise so it may be a bit worse than it sounds. TV news weather reporting shows most of it is staying south of me. No word from my daughter half an hour south of me. Think we're good! I've been through a LOT worse.
