Thursday 8:55 am: Our moist airmass is capped by a warm, subsiding airmass. The subsiding air will prevent our afternoon cumulus clouds from growing tall. Plenty of afternoon sunshine, small cumulus, humid, upper 90’s, a few spots reaching 100F.

Excellent thread on Screwworm…
Wednesday 5:05 pm: Just Because Department: tropical air, 91F on the shore of Hudson Bay at Fort Severn, mid 50’s is average this time of the year. 73 mph wind gust from a line of thunderstorms that passed through Chicago.
Wednesday 4:18 pm: Big Picture Weathermap: A tropical high pressure system with subsiding warm air rests above our gulf humidity in the lower atmosphere. Small cumulus in our skies, we have been to 98F so far today. Very similar set up for Thursday.
Wednesday 8:45 am: Hotter dry air above our gulf moisture will bring scattered small afternoon cumulus clouds. Plenty of afternoon sunshine, upper 90’s, a few spots could touch 100F.
Tuesday 4:20 pm: Big Picture Weathermap: High pressure building aloft, above our moist airmass has brought a sunnier, but still humid day for us. This pattern should hold up through Thursday, and likely Friday.
Tuesday 8:34 am: A tropical high pressure system aloft, above our moist gulf air, will bring sinking motion in the atmosphere, sunnier afternoon skies. Upper 90’s late afternoon.
Important post. Failure on so many levels. We need to do better if we are to be a Weather Ready Nation.
Monday 10:21 pm: About as strong a thunderstorm downburst of wind as it gets…Salina, Kansas with 60+ mph winds from 9:18 pm to 9:35 pm with winds gusting as high as 113 mph.

1/ Five cases of New World screwworm have now been confirmed in the U.S., Texas has declared an emergency, and Canada immediately restricted livestock imports. Most people had never heard of screwworm until last week (or maybe just now). That's because we eradicated it from the U.S. in 1966.🧵
