Picture a day

Lotta of rain coming our way

Looks like we got a wet next couple days. I have been watching for this system since last week when the models were predicting it. Wind shear is high and will remain high for the next 3 days. So not much organization is expected right away. We sure do need the rain but I hope their is a pause Saturday I so wanted to hit the beach. So ma nature if your listening no rain between 8am and noon. Cool? Hey it never hurts to ask.

It's not raining here now, but it will be. 

Great sleeping weather!

:)

Love that INSTABILITY !

This was The beginning of a two hour rain event. I was even honored with thunder. I missed that sound. I don't think we had one storm in September. It wasn't nothing to brag about but it helped.We might even get some more today.
DISCUSSION...AMPLE MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY (PW`S ~2"/LI`S -4C) VIA 12Z
RAOB DATA COMBINED WITH DAYTIME HEATING SHOULD AGAIN HELP TO GENERATE
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND T-STORMS OVER THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE AFTERNOON
WITH AN EASTERLY STEERING FLOW ALBEIT LIGHT FAVORING THE GREATEST STORM
COVERAGE AND HIGHEST POPS ALONG COASTAL LOCATIONS DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING HOURS. SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY SLOW STORM MOTION WILL AGAIN
SUPPORT SOME LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IN SOME LOCATIONS. A GOOD DEAL OF
SUNSHINE PRIOR TO THE ONSET OF CONVECTION WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB
TO ABOVE NORMAL READINGS THROUGHOUT...WITH HIGHS IN THE MID/UPPER 80S
EXPECTED IN MOST LOCATIONS. CURRENT FORECAST IN GOOD SHAPE WITH NO MORNING
UPDATE PLANNED.
Here's to hoping!!

Intrest in the Gulf/Not so intresting

. A SURFACE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO
CONTINUES TO PRODUCE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN...WESTERN CUBA...FLORIDA...AND THE
NORTHERN BAHAMAS. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD SPREAD EASTWARD INTO THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS...BUT TROPICAL
CYCLONE FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED HERE OR ELSEWHERE DURING THE NEXT
48 HOURS.
FORECASTER BERG/PASCH
Yes we finely received some rain but not much, most of the showers remained south.
The GOM is under high shear right now, so nothing but light showers are expected with this system. We have some dry air coming which will take all pops out of the equation,until this weekend:A ROBUST UPPER TROUGH MOVES
INTO THE THE WEST...SHIFTING A RIDGE EASTWARD ACROSS THE PLAINS
AND LIFTING THE EAST COAST TROUGH NORTH. THIS ALLOWS A RIDGE FROM
THE ATLANTIC TO THE CARIBBEAN TO CREEP NORTHWARD OVER THE STATE
BRINGING THE SURFACE BOUNDARY WITH IT...PROVIDING INCREASING
MOISTURE AND RAIN CHANCES FOR THE WEEKEND INTO MON.
But I will keep monitoring the weather for any changes.
This year has been a bust for me for storm chasing with my car problems i haven't been able to travel to the seabreeze boundary's. I am hoping this will change by next season. I am a poor girl living day to day with no credit(which is probably good right now)but i am doing what I can to change that. I still want more then anything to be a storm chaser to capture mother nature at here best. I don't want to make money from this, it is just a life's pursuit. I can't wait for the day when i can chase and photograph an awesome storm. My time is near for now i just read what I can and watch all the video I can.Learn from the world.
Peace and love!

Update: Sub tropical storm Laura lost the sub as of 11am she became tropical with near 60mph winds.MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE NEAR 60 MPH...95 KM/HR...WITH HIGHER
GUSTS. GRADUAL WEAKENING IS FORECAST DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF
DAYS. LAURA WILL BEGIN TO LOSE TROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS TONIGHT
AND IS EXPECTED TO BECOME EXTRATROPICAL ON WEDNESDAY. I didn't expect that.

Happy 20th anniversary of my daughter's birth

March 7th 1988 at 1:13 am my daughter was born. Twenty i can't believe it years ago,holy crap man i have a child in her 20's. 20 great years she was my life for so long and now she has her own i guess now i look forward to grandchildren. ( Insert laugh) i can wait awhile on that i do still have a seven year old. Happy Birthday Binners!!I love you!!!


15% chance of severe storms tomorrow(Today).MODEL DATA STILL SUGGESTS STRONG LOW LEVEL WINDS IN THE FRIDAY
AFTERNOON THROUGH SATURDAY EARLY MORNING HOURS JUST NORTH OF THE
AREA WHICH MAY PROVIDE ADDITIONAL DYNAMIC SUPPORT SOME SOME
THUNDERSTORMS TO BECOME SEVERE...ESPECIALLY NORTH OF THE TAMPA BAY
AREA. Of course i have to work, im not liking working nights but at least i am working. I am so tired, I will post more tomorrow.
night,
Jess

Sure just in time for me to go to work

A CLUSTER OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS...MOVING NORTHEAST AT 30
MPH...WILL AFFECT MUCH OF NORTHERN PINELLAS...NORTHWEST
HILLSBOROUGH...AND WESTERN PASCO COUNTY...UNTIL 345 PM EST. THIS
INCLUDES THE CITIES AND COMMUNITIES OF PALM HARBOR...TARPON
SPRINGS...OLDSMAR...TOWN `N` COUNTRY...HOLIDAY...NEW PORT
RICHEY...AND LAND O LAKES. GUSTY WINDS 40 TO 50 MPH MAY CAUSE LOOSE
OBJECTS TO BLOW AROUND. MINOR DAMAGE TO TREE LIMBS AND WIRES IS
POSSIBLE. FREQUENT CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING IS EXPECTED. THIS STORM
WILL PRODUCE PEA SIZE HAIL. TORRENTIAL RAINS WILL REDUCE VISIBILITY
TO NEAR ZERO AT TIMES. MOTORISTS MAY WANT TO DELAY TRAVEL. IF
THREATENING WEATHER APPROACHES...SEEK SHELTER INDOORS ON THE LOWEST
FLOOR AND IN AN INTERIOR ROOM AWAY FROM WINDOWS.

Its raining, its pouring, my kitty cats are snoring

This radar site makes everything look severe whats really happing is rain. No thunder no wind no nothing just rain and No fun and im off today go figure. Yes I am working again nights at the Village Inn and tomorrow i go in to another restaurant called hill top cafe to see if maybe i will have a day job too. I don't know how hill top will pan out, she just said 'I am bringing everybody in" Sounds like she cleaning house and if i want the job i will have to go up against others. Wish me luck. I will have gone from no jobs to two jobs within a week. I can live with that. We need so much( I want so much).
Remember my kittens that I saved,well its been eight months now and I have grown very fond of them.
Noah, who we think is part squirrel is are olive eater. He just loves olives and will do anything for one even beg like a dog and when he is finished he acts like he is on cat nip.
Eli is my boy he has taken a great liking to me, he sleeps on me literally on me dosnt matter how i sleep he will find away to lay on me.
2:07pm- Holy crap its pouring!still no wind just strait line rain.
Back too my kitty's, anyway guess what another cat has found her way to our house she has actually been vistaing for the last couple months i think she is Eli sister if u remember Eli found his way to my bedroom window when he was just 7 wks old. This one is so friendly we just assumed she was somebody's kitty we never fed her. She was very persistent about coming inside but we never let her. Finely i started asking around to find out who she belonged to well come to find out nobody new. so we let her in and let me also remind you i have 2 dogs also. she just waltzed right inn rubbed up against both dogs and bam she made herself at home never asking to go back outside. I feel like a kitty magnet. My son has named her Salina and he has taken ownership. I am making him help me with the kitty litter.
2;16 just drizzling now.
This is Noah


This is Eli


And introducing MS.Salina

Well if the weather takes a turn for the worse i will updat but thats all I got for now.

It's A beautiful day

It’s a beautiful day and yes we have another beautiful weekend ahead of us.
Now that the cold front has finely moved further south we can enjoy some nice mild temps. Today’s high is around 71 and looks to be a repeat for the weekend. Sweet.

Enjoy your weekend!

Mild cold front coming in

Beautiful sunrise this morning. Isn't it said if the morning is red sailors dred?
Well shortly after the sunrise the sky became overcast and light precept started falling. There is a mild cold front coming in nothing to severe temp wise, and weather wise.




Winds are still coming in from the south but once this front moves across winds will change and come from the north. The difference will be at night, with temps dropping into the high 40's to lower 50's depending on where you are. Daytime temps will be just a little bit cooler.
There is a slight risk of severe weather for the folks on the east coast of our country( eastern Carolina's has a 2% chance of tornadoes) but that's about it.
SDS at this time of year is strong with all of us weather geeks.
Come on spring!!!
Tomorrow looks to be a perfect outside day!
Well that's all got for now Have a great weekend enjoy the weather and get out and do something!!!

Florida winter

It does get cold in Florida it just doesn't last for long.
We are going to get back up to the higher 70's by Wednesday and it looks to stick around for the weekend. Very nice.
I took a picture of the full moon last week and so far it is the best image i took.

SDS is hitting me pretty hard right now I have been reading weather blogs and watching videos of last years season and I think it is making it worse.
I will be watching Thursday for a chance of severe weather in the deep south. (Florida is not considered the deep south for some reason, even know were are as far south as you can get)
But I will still watch as this system progresses and hope there is enough instability to flare up some supercells at the same time praying that nothing happens in suburban areas. Sometimes its hard to want something to happen that might hurt or destroy peoples life. I cant change what I love, or who I am for that matter.
anyway nothing severe this week for us here in sunny Ha ha its warm here Florida this week, just remember to keep those eyes to the sky even its blue, it still holds its own beauty.

Fog this morning

Sometimes area discussions crack me up I'm reading it this morning while looking outside and as u could plainly see we have some fog going on. Read this:
.UPDATE...DECIDED TO GO AHEAD AND ADD IN SOME FOG TO THE NORTHERN
WATERS THIS MORNING...
Well I'm glad he decided to add that other wise i might have thought i was seeing things. lol
Yesterday's forecast did a 180 with the pops chances...MODELS HAVE ALMOST COMPLETELY
DONE A 180 WITH REGARDS TO GUIDANCE. NOW THE MAV HAS GONE FROM
8-10 PERCENT POPS IN IT`S LAST TWO RUNS OVER TAMPA UP TO 80
PERCENT FOR TONIGHT! We saw that with last nights blog. Rain totals as promised, Thanks to my good friend Dew and her awesome birthday gift.

I know the image stinks but My camera well you know if u have read my blogs.
Rain was consistent through out the night and as u can see from the top picture clouds have consumed the sky.
By this afternoon most of the fog should lift. we are expected to have mostly cloudy skies for the day. The upper level disturbance that moved over our viewing area last night is now located in the middle of our state.
They still have a slight pops for our area but i think the seabreeze will keep any rain that is produced from the daytime heating in the south. Yea i know i said that yesterday but models change things happen and when they do i will be right on top of it. Plus I am no meteorologist....yet.
Now on to the cold front pushing in.

There is a strong cold front pushing in from the Mississippi Vally and with high pressure behind it fueling it we should start feeling a difference in the air tomorrow and definitely by Friday, with temps reaching to the 30's or 40's depending where you are. BRRRR well from a Floridans point of view. I will no more as the day goes by.
until the next blog have a wonderful day!!!

Its a beautiful day in the neigborhood

Check out the barometric pressure at the time of the storm, these measurements were taken at Brasher park where they have a weather station. The winds were not as strong there as they were here and other locations. I have heard all sorts of storeys.

Gasprella parade was canceled
Bay news 9 had a story. There was little to report and If tornadoes did touch down they were weak and brief.

For today there is a high pressure centered over the mid Atlantic states and is covering most of the eastern third of are country. A ridge is forecasted to move across our state Tuesday. Wednesday it looks like a week frontal boundary will move in, not nearly as strong as the last keeping our temps moderate. They show light pops with it but it focuses mainly on the south west.
Oh well It doesn't look good for anymore severe weather this week, I will just have to re watch my video to help with any wx blues.
That's for me now have a good Monday!
Jess.. :-)

Just what the doctor ordered

NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. (AP) — The National Weather Service says tornadoes touched down in two locations along the west coast of Florida on Saturday, causing some damage but no injuries. Meteorologist Mike Cantin says a tornado touched down at 5:26 p.m. in New Port Richey. It felled some streets signs and trees. Cantin says there were no reports of injuries. The second tornado touched down in west Hernando County at 5:45 p.m. The extent of damage, if any, wasn't immediately known.
I didn't see a funnel but the sky was amazing, I so needed this! I wish I had a better camera to share my experience with you! The gust was strong I don't have an anemometer(Its on my wants list and after today it just got push up, right after a tripod.) Anyway the wind was crazy it seem to come from everywhere. My husband was getting nervous it was lightning and I'm in the middle of the driveway taping and after the last lightning jolt i agreed to come in my body was shaking to hard to hold the camera. That's why I need a tripod even with my crappy camera! I received 1.48 inches of rain I don't know if the video is gonna work on this, if not i will post tomorrow. We had a some wind damage my neighbor's dead kumquat tree snapped there were garbage cans flying everywhere and we received 1.48 inches of rain all all a nice cure for the wx blues.
Pardon my swears in the video i was a bit excited.

No Storms/" DEWDROP" Comes to Florida

Yes the The DEWVOID is coming into Florida, so no worries for those who don't like WX weather. lol, really it is quite beautiful here in sunny Florida today's high reached 80*.
I took my son to the Park which is right off the water. The breeze was cool coming of the gulf we played hard but we never did break a sweat.
Christmas was nice, very peaceful. I am getting a little bored with all this wonderful weather. Here is our forecast presented by FDOERT

Pleasant day in store for most of the state Thursday...Cloudy but warmer across North Florida...Ocean swells along the Atlantic Coast continue an elevated risk of rip currents with a high risk of dangerous rip currents expected along the Panhandle...Chance of rain late tonight across the Panhandle.

Areas of dense fog and low clouds should lift by mid morning but high clouds will keep partly cloudy skies across the state today. The low clouds will be slower to move out of North Florida as a cold front weakens and dissipates over the area today. Only a few showers are associated with this front and any shower activity will continue to weaken today. These clouds continuing over the North Florida area will keep daytime highs cooler, but not as cool as previous days. Highs in the upper 60s and low 70s are expected across North Florida late this afternoon after the low clouds begin to lift. Weak high pressure over the Peninsula will keep it warmer with not as many clouds with temperatures in the upper 70s and low 80s near and south of I-4.
Tonight high pressure over the Peninsula shifts east, turning winds to the east and southeast as another area of low pressure develops over western Texas and moves towards the Midwest States. This developing area of low pressure will help lift a weak warm front north from the Gulf of Mexico across the Florida Panhandle late tonight. Isolated showers will develop near this warm front with a few showers possible over portions of North Florida late tonight. Elsewhere, light winds and increasing moisture will lead to the development of areas of dense fog again late tonight across portions of the Peninsula. Overnight lows will range from the mid to upper 50s across North Florida and northern Central Florida to the mid and upper 60s across most of Central Florida and South Florida except extreme South Florida where low will only dip to the low 70s.

I have I have been watching the satellite and radar and reading the NWS forecast and it looks like another cold front will be pushing in at the beginning of the week with slight precept chances new years eve night. I just checked for an update and this was on the first line......MAJOR PATTERN CHANGE TO VERY COLD WEATHER EXPECTED LATER NEXT
WEEK...
and then this..GIVEN THE PROXIMITY OF THE FRONT CANNOT RULE OUT A FEW SHOWERS AND
PERHAPS A STORM SUNDAY...AND THEN CONTINUED SHOWER ACTIVITY EVEN
INTO LATE TUESDAY.
ooh goody LOL I take it "Dew"will be home by then. HEEHEE I like the perhaps too cracked me up! Well that's all I got for today have a good one and remember...
KEEP YOUR EYES TO THE SKY!!!!
Jess :@)

we might see some rain tonight/so they say....

...THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
A FAST MOVING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA LATE
TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY. AN AREA OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS AREAS NORTH OF TAMPA BAY
OVERNIGHT...THEN ACROSS THE TAMPA BAY AND ADJACENT AREAS EARLY
FRIDAY MORNINGS. ALTHOUGH THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL BE
ISOLATED...ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DO FORM WILL BE CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING BRIEF STRONG WIND GUSTS.
but no naders, darn.
Its another night event anyways and i don't chase at night.
At the beginning of the week it was forecasted to be cold on Christmas, now that has all changed the cold front will dissipate before reaching us here in sunny Florida.
With only a 20% pops and a high of 73 it looks to be quite a beautiful day. Personally I would like it to be cold for Christmas. That's the only time I like it cold. Anyhow I re watched the Twister sister show and you know what? They did a damn good job making this series interesting and I swear Cullen just keeps getting cuter every time I watch it! I'm looking forward to next weeks and of course I cant wait to watch Dewdrops episode Jan.8th!!
well thats it for now have a great day!
Jess

cooler weather approaching/wet over the weekend

I have been a little distracted this week, I missed my weekly Monday blog.
If you viewed my picture above you will see Sunday night 12/9/07 they shut the doors for good at my restaurant. Which has put my son's Christmas in jeopardy, I waited to long to Christmas shop, I was waiting for the added tips and bonuses I get from my customers, my bad. Now i can only hope and pray things will come together for my son. I have humbled myself and have ask for help. Who ever reads this please send a prayer that help comes. I have been all over the place seeking employment but now is not a good time. I know I will eventually find work but not in time for the holiday.
My spirit has not been broke and what does not kill me will only make me stronger!!
I don't want you to feel sorry for me I just need a prayer, but enough about that.

Now on to the weather.

...SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING...

Busy WX weekend in store they say, sounds good to me! looks like most of the action will be Saturday night and Sunday morning, not so good with my camera which is going to heck. we have two main ingredients going on 1) large upper trough now moving across the Rockies and associated cold front. 2) remnants of Olga in the nw Caribbean.
All in all we shall see some rain!!! I love this though...WE`RE ANTICIPATING A SQUALL LINE WITH POSSIBLE
DAMAGE WINDS AND ISOLD TORNADOES WITH THE FRONTS PASSAGE. THE
WILD CARD MAY BE HOW WELL THE VORTICITY WITH OLGA REMNANTS HOLDS
IT IDENTITY ALONG THE FRONT.

Looks like I'm getting up early Sunday!!!!
Sunday night its gonna get cold for us here in Florida 40's for us 30's for interior.
so bring in the pets!! For those up north USA yea forty is freakin cold! We have been having highs in the middle 80's so a high in the 60's is BRRRRRRR. To cold for me that's why I live here, I like it 80 degrees!
I am hoping for some good cloud shots and of course I will share if I do.
For now I am off have a good weekend and remember.......
KEEP YOUR EYES TO THE SKY!
Jess
UPDATE: 11:09pm We got rain! I wanted to see if I could watch the meteor shower but it doesn't look like it will clear before I turn in.
Doesn't look like Jeff will get a good view ether. Oh well we could use the rain.
and it looks to stay around, this is from 8:15 updateTHIS AREA OF CONVECTION HAS WEAKENED AND
SHOULD REMAIN OVER MY CENTRAL ZONES REST OF TONIGHT WITH LOWER
RAINFALL TOTALS EXPECTED AND 50 POPS LOOK GOOD THERE WITH 30 POPS
OVER SW FL AND THE NATURE COAST AS THE BOUNDARY WILL BE VERY SLOW
TO MOVE OVERNIGHT.
It sounds like great sleeping weather for me, and with that I bid you a good night.
Jess

Rain? Thanksgiving? could be

Chances are, it will rain here on thanksgiving day I'm hoping we are not to far south but it looks like conditions could be just right for some percep. I just want some water for my trees and shrubs. I gave up on the lawn.
The cool front moving in Thursday evening will bring our temps down but not by much.
Its not gonna be extreme and its not gonna last from what im reading its gonna reach south Florida and Come back north as a warm front. Interesting...

AT THE SURFACE THE COOL FRONT
ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA WILL MOVE NORTH AS A WARM FRONT SATURDAY
Lots to learn I cant wait to read a weather discussion and understand all of it!

So... The Twister Sisters Show has its own website now, very exciting! (Just click on Twister Sisters for the link)
I made a promo and not just my voice It was quick but you see me. Dew too just before me she looked Blissful like me!
I can't believe it has already been 6 months, It all seems like yesterday too me.
Then again I do keep re watching my videos over and over again.

I hope everyone has a Great Thanksgiving as for me I have a lot To be Thankful for! And very Thankful I am!!!
Jess

Getting warmer with each day till the weekend

The cold front that moved Thursday evening was fast, I got off a couple shots none very impressive but i like clouds over the sun so i thought i share this one,With in ten minutes of the front rushing by the temps dropped 10 degree's, Buy the morning temps in in the lower 40's ch Ch chilly!!

Saturday my hub and
i went on a small road trip to Homosassa springs to visit some friends. Nice big yard huge pines which I love!
My son loved it too!
Sunday I worked most of the day but looking at it, made me wish I could have gone on another excursion but I gotta make the money, and today my off day I need to give my house a good cleaning!!!
As for the Weather with each passing day it will get warmer and warmer.
Thanksgiving day they are saying it will be above normal temps but with another front coming down Thursday night Friday day is to be with cooler temps as for pops chances well i will let you read for your self
THE FRONT WILL MOVE INTO WEST CENTRAL FLORIDA THURSDAY NIGHT THEN LIKELY
STALL OUT OVER SOUTHWEST FLORIDA ON FRIDAY AS ITS BECOMES PARALLEL TO
THE SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE TO THE NORTHWEST
BRIDGING ACROSS IT. THE STALLING FRONT COMBINED WITH WEAK PERTURBATIONS
MOVING THROUGH THE SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT AND DEVELOPING OVERRUNNING WILL
SUPPORT CONSIDERABLE CLOUDINESS AND CHANCES FOR SHOWERS ON FRIDAY WITH
HIGHEST POPS ~40% LIKELY TO BE FOCUSED ACROSS CENTRAL/SOUTHERN ZONES
CLOSEST TO THE FRONT...TAPERING BACK TO ~30% NORTH.
So I think from that We wont see much of anything but clouds, but I'm not a meteorologist, but they also say this...The gfs
AND ECMWF ARE STILL EXHIBITING SOME DIFFERENCES WITH RESPECT TO THE
OVERALL EVOLUTION AND IMPACT FROM THIS SYSTEM...SO FOR NOW WILL CAP POPS
~40% AND WILL WAIT TO SEE WHAT FUTURE MODEL RUNS SHOW OVER THE NEXT DAY
OR SO. HOWEVER IF THE GFS TRENDS CONTINUE THEN HIGHER POPS WILL LIKELY
BE NEEDED IN LATER FORECASTS.
So I am not the only who is not for sure! Gotta go my computer is going nutty..Frigging thing until next time....
Jess

BRRRRRR!

Cold front moving in today Remains Dry with isolated pops from pasco north.
I am hoping a isolated shower pops over us today, some cloud shots would be nice!!
plus free water for the lawn would be helpful.
Tonight ladies and gentleman In my area if you are reading this its gonna be cold tonight dropping down to the 30s. Tomorrows high is 63 but there will be a wind chill and it will feel colder then it is.
No worries by Saturday we will be back up too 73 for the high and by the middle of the week back to the 80s. Florida weather gotta love it!
Well m off gotta get to work.. Have wonderful day and remember to bundle up tonight!
Jess

This picture was taken May 21,07 Leaving Missouri onward to south Dakota
I loved the hills so beautiful! I have been feeling a little claustrophobic living here on Florida's peninsula wrapped by water and where everything is flat. No severe storms for my area all summer just a sub tropical system went over

what I want to see is a

yup A wall cloud.
I am hoping that with the next couple months and cold fronts trying to make it down here i will find what i am looking for:)

Today well it looks like it will be yet another hot and humid day this is what NWS had to say about it...
..HEAT IMPACT...
SWELTERING CONDITIONS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR WILL RETURN THIS
AFTERNOON. THE COMBINATION OF TEMPERATURES NEAR OR JUST ABOVE 90
WITH MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY AROUND 55 PERCENT WILL CREATE
APPARENT TEMPERATURES AROUND 100. RESIDENTS SHOULD TREAT TODAY AS
A DAY IN LATE AUGUST OR EARLY SEPTEMBER BY DRINKING PLENTY OF
WATER BEFORE DURING AND AFTER ACTIVITY...AND WEARING LIGHTWEIGHT
AND LIGHT COLORED CLOTHING. THOSE MOST SENSITIVE TO HEAT SHOULD
REMAIN IN AIR CONDITIONED LOCATIONS TODAY.
and of course:SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED TODAY. Story of my life
Maybe the next front will make it down(I'm not holding on any hope for it)
If anything exciting happens I will post, for now.....
KEEP YOUR EYES TO THE SKY!
