Weather Monday

And I’m dragging my longhorn wife to this, so I’m a bit more aware of how shitty the walking might be.

However, if its rippin it will be the harder rain than you’ve ever seen in Seattle. Lightning is a non issue, there are lightning rods everywhere. Be aware if they forecast large hail, that can be dangerous personally and to vehicles.

Tornado watch means almost nothing, just that there’s the ingredients forecasted for a possible storm. generally a watch is for 4-6hr period. I would expect one tomorrow.

Tornado warning means hold onto your asshole, get inside immediately and away from glass as you about to get blasted tornado or not. These usually last for 15-30 min.

basically if the sky turns green follow that last paragraph
 
As it gets closer the forecast gets more precise.

The exclamation point is what you’d rather not be stuck outside for. However the forecast will keep evolving so check before you’re about to get out in it.
 
Quite pleased we departed early with the intent of getting to IAH before storms roll through.

This is what storms normally look like, the storm line hits hard and passes. I would watch for this today and avoid being outside.

I remember one time as a youth, pre-drugs, a storm came through. We were idiots so we grabbed metal polls and ran in circles outside.

Anyone feeling adventurous today?

You didn’t think the script was going to die without trying to tear a hole in the atmosphere did you?
