Thunderstorms overnight and hockey game

Good late evening bloggers,

Updated at 10:35 PM:  Who is staying up with us?  The hockey game is into the second overtime.  Thunderstorms are still hours away, but areas near and north of I-70 could have another MCS tonight.  So, are you with me for the late newscast?

I will be all over this tonight at 10 PM, but a few interesting things are going on.  You do know what rule #1 of forecasting is, don't you?  Always look outside because you never know.  I just looked outside and the sky was rippling with altocumulus clouds, and this tells me thunderstorms will be forming soon.  They may form just north of Kansas City, but I am convinced they will form.

A thunderstorm, west of Salina, is struggling inside the cap. There is a strong cap that has formed.  Did you know it was 110 degrees out over southwestern Kansas today?  Wow!  Anyway, this thunderstorm as it moves east seems to be getting its act together.  I am expecting thunderstorm development between this cell, and the thunderstorms forming to our northeast.  The Storm Prediction Center has put out a new Severe Thunderstorm Watch well off to our northeast, but let's watch this closely tonight.  Large hail is once again the main threat.

We will go into the rest of the week's set-ups on the air and in tomorrows blog.  Watch our 10 PM show, in a few minutes.

Gary

So no tornado threat?  I will sleep better knowing...

I wonder if the tornado threat will be fairily low on Thursday because it is looking like a nighttime event? But, its supposed to be 86 on Thursday.

Becky,
If you live Metro-south, then you probably won't get any rain, either!

Please no more storms!! Just got in from cleaning up storm damage.

Well the old barn has just about had it. Roof bowed up and is about ready to come off - we just had a new roof put on 3 years ago. Very upset over this!! Cedar tree in fell on powerline and created quite a mess in the front yard. And quite a bit of water came in the house. Cupula on the brand new barn is a twisted mess and the chimney cap came off. Stock tanks were tossed over 150'. Strange how they went over a 5 foot fence. And my poor plants have their leaves stripped from the hail. This was the first year I was going to have peaches, but they are all on the ground now. Where can I move that doesn't have all this severe weather????

And we had so much hail that it looked like snow on the ground. Took over 40 minutes to all melt away.

farmgirl, where are you located?

Matt P said:

Gary, don't take it personally, but I don't mind you being on later.  The Penguins were able to tie this game to send it to overtime.  Overtime hockey is one of the best events in all of professional sports.  Sit back and enjoy the game.

Farmgirl,
I am so sorry that you had a lot of damage with today's storms. :(  I hope that repairs can be made quickly.

Hi All,
There's really not a chance for tornadoes tonight.  You can rest easy.  I seriously doubt the immediate metro will have much rain, if any.

Becky I think your far enough south that you won't get any severe weather, but from 1AM later there is a chance of storms, and there is still a slgt chance for severe weather, but keep your weather radio on just in case. 40% of storms for you.

Thanks Kristi.  It will let me rest easier! :)

I'm sorry to hear about the damage you received from the storms! It definately shows the true force of nature's storms when it happens in your own yard! Again sorry to hear about your damage.

Check out this story about Parkersburg, IA.  It shows that not every athlete is selfish, contrary to popular belief. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/peter_king/06/01/mmqb/index.html?cnn=yes

So how does OT work in hockey.. (love sports, know nothing about ice hockey rules)... is the game over after the first team scores? or do they play to the end of the OT and whoever is leading wins? Just trying to guage when to tune into the weather.

Luthur said:

suz - first one to score.  This is the most hockey I've watched ever, and well, it is sort of exciting even though I have no rooting interest or knowledge of the game.

--

I'm leaving the predictions up to The Team.  Although, I'm going to bed sleeping soundly tonight.  Maybe some rain, but what we saw today is an exception.   I'm not going to worry.  Later this week, however, might be a different story.
June 2, 2008 10:21 PM
 

Matt P said:

suz01, the first team to score wins.  However, if Detroit wins, the series is over.  If Pittsburgh wins, it goes back to Pittsburgh for Game Six.  Not to worry you, but I did stay up for a four-overtime game at the beginning of the playoffs.
June 2, 2008 10:24 PM
 

simplykristi said:

Looks like 3:00 mins is left in the OT.  Hopefully one of the teams will score so that this ends in one OT and not another one.

Thx!

Farmgirl,
Just read your damage report above. Awful. Amen you're all safe.

I've gone back and read the posts from the previos blog. I get very anxious about tornados. If I see a red box (tornado warning) heading my way even if it's still two counties over ~ my blood pressure goes up and I feel sick to my stomach. No, I don't handle it well. Lightening and the resulting thunder can make me jump but they don't scare me especially if I'm at home. Heavy rain and hail scare me if I'm on the highway. But it's the threat of tornado that sends me into a panic mode.

I've been thru a tornado jumping my house in the 70's, out ran a tornado in the 80's, and been around when they've been just a mile away. I know that I can get stressed out. It has helped immensely to come here and blog. Kristi's calm and reassuring posts have been a god send.

I want to learn more maybe to help conquer my fears. I also want a shelter. I've been wanting one for awhile. It really hit home hard when the tornando in early May was heading for my house made a right turn and hit Picher, OK. There were homes where nothing but the foundation was left.  By next spring, I will have a shelter. I can't handle the stress much longer when everytime the weather radio goes off.  I've talked to others in my area that are feeling the same stress because we've had so many.

Thx everyone for the hockey OT 101 training!  Patiently awaiting a win, then onto the weather.

Kristi,
I always have the weather radio on :) Can anyone tell me the web site to get the SAME codes?  I lost my book and my sis needs the site, thanks
Becky

simplykristi said:

That new MD changed my thinking...  Worst case scenario, maybe some storms with hail ad wind.  There should not be any tornadoes.  Keep your weather radios on in case we get a wind/hail event.  It sounds like hail would be the primary threat.   I sleep with mine on and it is set to go off for watches and warnings.

I am done trying to figure out what is going to happen.  :)

Have a great and safe night, everyone! :)

Lillyanya said:

Wow.. it's going to be where there's watches surrounding the metro.

I really need a weather radio.  My boyfriend however doesn't believe they're worth the money.  Especially since I wind up at my mother's house every time there's a bad event. :(  I still really want one.  I've been going to my mother's less now that we have a second car.  I can go as needed rather then spend the night, but I'm probably going to be staying Wed - Friday at her house this week.  I don't want to take chances with that big sucker heading our way.

My gut has been yelling at me the last couple of days.  Watch it fizzle out and my gut be wrong. LOL

farmgirl said:

Thanks for everyone's well wishes. I'm just glad I got home in time to put the horses in the barn. They were thankful for sure. :) Guess this is why we have insurance. Need to go and buy another weather radio, mine went on the blitz. Going to get one tomorrow in antipation for Thursday.

Heard from the KCP&L crew that Mound City and Osawotomie got hit hard with large hail and wind. They were so nice and helpful in getting the power back on. They are heros in my eyes!

thanks suz

Matt P said:

Lillyanya, they take just $29.95.  Ask him what is worth $29.95 and if the people who have been saved think it was worth the money. Maybe you should send him to his mother's house. LOL!!! Last year, I saw a neighbor driving down the road with his eight-year-old son standing in the front seat.  Like I told him, it's not the times that nothing happens, but it only takes one time.  And in each time that parents have seen their unbuckled kids die, they never thought it would happen to them.  The same thing with the severe weather. There are many folks who don't think they a) need a radio, b) go into the basement, or c) leave their trailer.  They're usually the ones who end up as victims.

Hopefully everything goes well with the insurance company farmgirl.

We just found out that my mom's exterior paint will not be covered on her insurance. :(

this is the only time I watch hockey, and probably the last. lol. by the way Gary and Brett thanks for all the updates today!! You were on your A game.

-------------------

Thanks!  It is hard to be all over it when thunderstorms are involved.  The next few days have many more challenges.

Lillyanya said:

It's on him.  I leave him here in our second story apartment.  He's not as worried.  I take my son and myself and get the heck out of dodge.

My mother's basement is perfect if a tornado hits.  She has the basement, and then in the basement she has a little room, and in this little room is a bathroom, and to top it off this little room has it's own very thick ceiling and walls.  it's a self contained tornado shelter.  

When I get a house it has to have a basement.  The basement can't be a walkout basement.  It has to have IN HOUSE access.  Not garage access. I am also going to build my own little tornado shelter inside of it.  Hopefully with reinforced concrete or something of the same.  Maybe just put a full on panic room in it.  Since that's what I do!

It would be nice if Gary could report the weather at the beginning of the newscast. I'm getting very sleepy. But can't rest until I watch Gary. :)

davidmcg said:

Go Red Wings and end this.  I am up and waiting.  On radar those storms are taking a direct heading for the Topeka/Lake Perry area and my home, yea just what we needed after our mid day storm.

Here is one for you.  How do you convince local officials you are looking at rotation and they insist you are not?  I have just taken the basic spotter class and not the advanced.  But when clouds are rushing into a centerpoint and the clouds there are rotating counterclockwise, doesn't that mean rotation?  And when debris on the ground is rotating and being tossed into the air isn't that rotation?  Well up here in McLouth I called in a wall cloud with rotation.  Two fire officials, one being the chief, both said there was no rotation and what I saw was scud and other non-discript low level clouds without any attachment to upper level clouds.   Sorry folks, I know what I saw and what I saw was rotation with a debris cloud.  Radar doesn't always show rotation.  One of the fire officials was a block from my house, the chief was back in town 4 miles away spotting.  I trust my judgement over theres anyday.  rotation is rotation and debris in the air is not good.  The storm was less than a mile to my northwest directly across the valley on top of a hill.  Unfortunately I didn't get any photo's or video.

lol... I never watch hockey, cept tonight.  
Know what you mean farmgirl, getting very sleepy too.  And I'm really sorry to hear about all your damage.  I hope it all works out well for you.

Wish Gary could give us bloggers a weather hint, especially if it's going to be noisey later.  I'd sure like to get a bit of sleep tonight.  :o)

Bewild, nor would there be anywhere near the action.  A normal NHL game has 60 minutes of action.  An NFL game averages 12-14 minutes of action.

Been watching (and every now and then listening) to the http://www.wibw.com live stream ESP radar only but sounds like they may be preparing to go live on the storm heading towards Topeka. Lots of keyboard tapping sounds and zooming in and out. Of course, now that we heard him crack open a canned beverage, drink it, and proceed to burp, they just turned the mic off. it's late.

btw, amazing pics on that site of the hail this morning.

I'm getting worried/anxious/happy all these emotions about thursday's potential outbreak. alright bloggers let's get talkin! What's tomorrow look like as I'm not trusting the Day 2 outlook really.

radman22 said:

Glad you have insurance farmgirl.   I was home about 10 years ago when the huge hailstorm hit over metcalf south and carved out a path to 103rd and state line.   The arial view 6 months later told the story... all the new roofs.    The hailstones were baseball sized and came down as hard as I have ever seen.   Every single home or car that was out was heavily damaged.    After it was over it left 2ft of hailstones to melt.    The fog from the hail melting in the heat was amazing... you could not see 5ft in front of you.     Luckily it was a rental and my car was in the garage.   It was around 1990 or 91.

This hockey is rough.   I think they need a shootout after 1 OT until someone wins.  I dont see how this sport could make it in this town without some big corporate sponsors.    The ticket prices are so high, I dont know who could afford a season ticket package.

Yeaaaaa   Goalllllllllllllllll

Now we get Gary!!!!!

I'm way up in NW Iowa about to be hit with our own weather in an hour or so.  Thinking of all of you for that growing monset out west.  Hopefully all of you get some much needed rain to the North and not as much South.  Hopefully our travels back on Wednesday are smooth before the next round Thursday.  I love keeping up on this blog with what's coming!  Be safe everyone.

NFL is only 10 games if you count preseason, so I assume the total cost for season tickets are much less.   I think the NBA needs a shorter season.. I dont watch it until the playoffs, if even then.   I will watch this years finals though.   Should be a good matchup like old times.    My fav sports are college BBall and FBall.   I cant wait till Fall!!!!!

This line wont shift just south of the metro will it?   It is hard to tell what direction it is moving, but the line seems to be connecting with the developing storms to the south.    It has to move NE, doesnt it????
June 3, 2008 12:07 AM
 

Matt P said:

Radman, that's true about the NFL.  However, what the Chiefs put out for a product just isn't worth the price.  The last time they won a title, they were in the AFL.  That's pretty sad.   KC hasn't had a professional champion since the Royals won the World Series in 1985, and they're also the last ones to even appear in a championship game.  If the Penguins came here, this city would have had a champion in the next few years.

About 80 miles from there in Okoboji.  Wish I was in Sioux City though.  The buildings might be able to withstand the bow echo developing!

Cant argue with you Matt,  I would not pay to see the Chiefs.   Its bad enough watching it on TV last few years.    I am just a college fanatic that finds it harder to enjoy overpaid athletes in pro sports.    NFL and a little Baseball is all I can take

Just like Gary said, always look outside....just saw lightening and didn't even know anything was coming!  Storms straight East of us here in Belton.  No warnings on anything yet.  I should have been asleep long ago so I'll just hope there's a low threat of anything bad and go to bed!

Just got woke up by some very loud thunder.  Checked the radar & there it is again!

I thought this would be north of us, but things are getting noisy in Osawatomie again.

Oh I hope it isn't as bad as earlier today.

Stay safe everyone!

I sure would like to know how come I have to water when there is flooding 2 or 3 counties away in almost all directions.  There has to be be come kind of rain curse over the farm, especially when some areas have sent records for amount of precipiation for year to date and we are just barely above normal for the year here.

We haven't had a severe storm, not that I want a sever storm, but that's about the only way to get a good rain here.

The storms those guys had today, man...
not that I wish any trouble for anyone, and I feel for the people that are getting damage from these storms, but seeing all of these storms all around us and still dodging St. Joe is VERY, VERY irritating for me...   Well i will continue to be patient and see how tonight does.  Again I would love to see vivid flashing lightning, pounding rain and gusty winds tonight but I am not holding my breath.

Been a rough spring for you farmgirl.  Its amazing just a county away, and we have had nothing like the amount of rain and damage you have recieved.

I hope the place holds up this week and you get some time to dry out

Not sure what time it was when the thunder and lightening woke me up last night, but when I finally did get up around 6 am that storm completely missed my neighborhood.  Checked the rain gauge and it was dry.  No totals this morning guys.

Hmm a few showers overnight, but not enough to get under the trees wet.  Can't wait for the jet stream to lift north so it really dries out.  The frustrating part is that this is the "wettest" time of the year.  However that's not happening hear, so when it does dry out this summer we will be the first to suffer while others that have a huge surplus won't be in bad shape.
