Are we supposed to have an outbreak today?

Looks like fun.

Are we supposed to have an outbreak today?

Thunderstorms yes, but not too much severe stuff is expected. Almost assuredly no tornado's, wrong set up for it. Biggest threats are high winds and some relatively small hail.

Doesn't look that bad. These thunderstorms might drop quarter size hail, but are mostly slow-moving heavy rain producers. Summer-like storms.

It's summer...no biggie

I do believe so... at 1st I didn't think the intensity was going to be so bad, but there appears to be alot of unstable air out South and West as these "pop-corn" variety of storms begin to pop up.

It's summer these storms will pop up...they won't grow very tall though so they will mainly be heavy rain producers...good ol summer thunderstorms. Remember hail is not classified as severe hail until it is one inch in diameter.

Get one of those hats with a little umbrella on top to wear. Make sure it's not metal. And run fast.

I thought it was still spring. Stupid me!

 

[CYdTracked]

I have a garden and some grass seed that could use a few rains this week so fine with me.

 

[pyrocyz]

So let me summarize what I have gotten here:

1. Bring my floaties to the game
2. Hope I don't get put in the outfield
3. don't use a metal bat


Does that sound about right :wink:

 

[ItsCyence]

Yee Haw! Bring it on!
