Pretty interesting to watch; I must say it almost looks like it's calming down right now.
The MCS chance is also getting really low in my opinion.

simplykirsti — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 22:15:24 GMT

The MCS chance is non-existant tonight, even though Amos says the risk is high.

I was hoping for a little more rain. Even though we've had pretty steady rain for the last month, my yard still has cracks in it. Pretty puzzling. Anyone else seeing the same thing in their yards? BTW I'm in Greenwood.

Welcome back Jeremy. Nice job predicting the severe stuff on Monday. I had that date marked on my calendar back when you made the initial prediction and so I was definitely waiting for it. I'm hoping that is the end of the severe stuff for us here in the metro this season!!

Dark clouds, wind gusts, lightning and thunder, and "large" rain drops in NW Ray county...just north of Lawson.

Why does the blog allow people to impersonate someone? That's not simplykristi, it's K.I..R..S..T..I.. and they're taking her comment from a few days ago when she said people were impersonating her. I still have a good idea who it is.

simplykristi - what makes you think a MCS is non existent? All I am looking at shows potential.

In the latest AFD from EAX - "EXPECT ANY PERSISTENT
ACTIVITY TO CONGEAL INTO A COMPLEX OF STORMS LATE THIS EVENING.
CORFIDI VECTORS AND 1000-500MB THICKNESS LINE INDICATE THAT ANY
COMPLEX THAT DEVELOPS WILL SLIDE EAST-SOUTHEAST ALONG THE FRONT. THIS SHOULD BRING RAIN TO AREAS NORTH OF THE MISSOURI RIVER EARLY
THURSDAY MORNING. HEAVY RAIN WILL BE A CONCERN WITH THE ACTIVITY
TONIGHT...WHILE MARGINALLY SEVERE WEATHER MIGHT BE POSSIBLE ALONG HE
SOUTHERN EDGE WHERE MORE UNSTABLE AIR WILL BE INGESTED.

Initiation is everything, but the environment is primed with shear, forcing along the warm front and ample instability. As MCSs typically are more nocturnal, as the LLJ kicks in, moisture transport and midlevel winds will be very good. In fact, the moisture transport is sick tonight.

haha..got tricked by the spoofing. Shame on me.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

kcwxguy — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 22:58:21 GMT

amet1 - I suspect a 10 minute audit by the IT folks at KSHB could quickly eliminate the spoofed accounts. In addition, it would take little to associate IPs to the correct email addresses of actual users.

But...I digress...its a shame the spoofing is occurring.

Poloweather — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 23:06:27 GMT

Quite a storm up Polo way. Lost electricity a couple times for a minute or so; lots of wind and torrential rain for awhile. Still very heavy rain, but at least I can see out to the fence :-)

Today Salina has reached 101 and Medicine Lodge 102 as of 5 PM. Amazing that last Wednesday was in the low 70's for highs!

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

restull — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 23:13:30 GMT

Looks like some high-based storms are moving into SW Kansas with some severe winds as dewpoint depressions are around 40 degrees.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

amet1 — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 23:14:09 GMT

It is a shame that this goes on. We all know it's the same person doing it. It's the same person who continually allows the blog to digress into something bad. Didn't I read one time you were an IT person? Can't they pay you to go fix the problem and validate the emails? It's a shame ti always comes to this.

Amos, really you're ruining it for everyone. Whenever you pull this you always refer to ABail aka AMos which tells me you're invoking sympathy and thinking we're all too dumb to figure out it;s you.
Now can we get back to weather before the comments get shut off again?

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

slim — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 23:45:36 GMT

We all know who it is, look at the spoofers times and who the reference. They all point to someone.
My wife thought I was spoofed once, but it was my brother.
Anyway...looks quiet for a while maybe overnight?
I would like to know how this spring/ summer compares to 2004, are they similar or am I way off.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

emcat — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 23:47:45 GMT

If we don't get any rain in the metro tonight, does that make the air more unstable for weather tomorrow or does it just mean more humid, muggy conditions?

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

lezakEF5 — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:03:13 GMT

Nothing in Marceline, but some cool cloud formations, small rai shafts and cool lightning.

I hope we can get something tonight. (not to wish anything on anyone) but I havent seen a severe storm move through here in quite a while.

Alex in Marceline

When I got home from work, around 5:30, I couldn't even stand to be outside for more than a few minutes, it was SO hot and humid and uncomfortable. Just a few minutes ago I stepped outside and it was almost cool out there I hope it stays that way tonight, so we can get a nice walk in!

Chasers in Nebraska have been on some good wall clouds, one funnel roped out, but still lowerings and obviuos rotation. Check TVN.net or Severe Studios

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

wthrworrywart — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:12:29 GMT

Gary,
On radar it looks like an outflow boundary? moved southwest from that supercell now over Marshall. It looks like that boundary is going through KC through Northern Johnson county, Mo. What is the possiblity of this sparking off something, Lord knows I hope not.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

Darkwolfe — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:15:33 GMT

It appears that Marshal Mo might need to take some cover. That supercell profile is classic for another tornado to spawn.

Weather team,
some time ago I posted a question asking if we would have a wetter than normal summer. I think your response was that it would be normal or just a bit above normal. With all the rain in the last week (we've had over 5 inches in Pleasant hill in 10 days) do you think the rest of the summer will be wetter than normal? I sure hope so. Seems when it is wetter that means it is also often cooler.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

FlakeFan — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:27:37 GMT

I don't see why were in a Tornado watch on the Kansas Side, everything is to the NE and moving south EAST.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

sportsfreaked — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:34:31 GMT

I am not seeing the classic hook echo on that cell moving towards Marshall that would indicate a tornado but you never know.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

mbilar1 — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:37:53 GMT

We just got the outflow boundary about 6:45 from the massive supercell up north. Lowered temp about 15 and the humidity tremendously! Relief!!!

Mbilar1 - where are you located?

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

Two stations are showing the damage from that storm around Norborn I think it's called. KC metro is out of the watch.

dezinemark — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:49:36 GMT

Here in NE Olathe, it has started to get dark inside since 7:40pm when I usually get really bright western sunshine making everything brighter, instead of darker. Looking north, there are some dark clouds, especially to the NW. But according to radar, there's no storms forming that I can see. What does this mean? Should I dispense the doggie valium now, or hold off & see what develops, if anything?

G-man: Any chance the outflow sets things off? Visually, it looks like the cap has asserted itself as all I have here in Lenexa are cumulus with the tops sheared off.

thanks amet, I just noticed that....is there any chance of those storms up in Nebraska to turn south?

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

stormlover — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:07:21 GMT

It was so hot & then we went to the water park & it must have dropped 20 degrees! I need to get a thermometer. I can't believe how quickly it cooled down.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

ChicagoExPat — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:08:14 GMT

Dezinemark, most times this season, I've dispensed the Doggie Downers and nothing happens.

Flakefan, I've been wondering the same thing. Gary reported on the 6pm forecast that we would stay dry in the Metro tonight -- no rain. But even over here in South JocoKS, we're still under a tornado watch. We're at the very edge of it, but I'll still be glad when it expires.

Tina, thinking I'll give the dog his happy pill

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

ChicagoExPat — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:11:58 GMT

That system moving up from SW Kansas toward Salina -- where will it end up? It looks like it's headed for Northern NE and St. Joe. I've been thinking all day about you folks up there in St. Joe, with no power and now these storms. I pray this is it for you -- you deserve a big break!

Tina

Chicago are you sure? The watch expired at least 30 minutes ago for the whole metro area

Ok the KS side is not under a watch let's say that

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

Amos — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:43:51 GMT

I'm glad I went to see my little crap head cousin; it really solved a big problem. It's really amazing what a middle school kid will do when you won't make him an account on a weather blog. He will make not just one himself, he will make many. He shouldn't be a problem any more. ;)

It was quite amazing that while I was yelling at him that the wind picked up suddenly from the ENE here in rural Lafayette county. It had to be the outflow from that interesting storm up to the north. It was bluer than could ever been seen. The outflow was quite pleasant I must say though; the temperatures cooled off to 79 for a while, and then 20 minutes later it was 87 again. (going by car therm.) A short, but much needed break from the heat.

New blog

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

amet1 — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:56:18 GMT

Amos, why is it , whenever there's trouble on the blog, it's always one of your "friends" and now it's your "cousin"? Do you really think all the bloggers are that stupid not to see through that ruse? It's always the same story. I'm not sure if there's some kind of illness going on with you but the signs all consistently point at you. I don't think anyone believes it's always a friend or relative of yours when you come back and claim you took care of it. Whatever the excuse you want to use, it all points at you and has for a long time.

re: Supercells Moving North of Kansas City

Amos — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 02:09:18 GMT

well, amet
I really didn't want to point him out specifically, as he is family, so I pointed him out as a friend. I must admit, I thought I stopped it the first time, and I did have suspicions with odd spoofs. He first started with a meteorologist from another station. I really shrugged it off; I think I even laughed a little. I figured he'd quit.

Then, he wanted his own account and for me to make it. I told him no as he was only 13. That made him mad, so he made many accounts. They all called me names, and I'm sure he didn't mean them, he was just mad. It was quite unique for a kid his age to take this out so well. I really should have told his mother the first time he pulled this BS and I was pretty sure. He will no longer be a problem. It's quite a long story, and if you don't believe some of this crazy kid's stuff, I have proof of his insanity. I have fully solved the problem; the former spoofer names will not be found on here again. PM me with further questions.
