Tornados and Hail

If that title does not scare you I will haha. Ok I'm just messing but their is another strong cold front. By now you know what that means a possibility of a sever weather out break. This system will not be the gangbuster that the last one was. But with the surface low and upper level low being so close to each other, this system has proven capable of producing tornado's. That dynamic will change as the storms approach our area. We will more likely see large hail or Wind damage. These storms will be getting close to us late tonight but the best chance for severe storms will be afternoon tomorrow.

I will give a update tomorrow

UPDATE:
 ok so this system has now produced over  100 tornado's.
for right now a line of severe storms are approaching and fast. within the hour we will see storms are best bet for severe weather today will be within the hour large hail and damaging winds are likely. im not ruling out a tornado somewhere within this line of storms so look out and take cover

Final:
241 tornado reports with some still wavering.
 there was a tornado on highway 601 three miles north of Salisbury, NC it was reported by law enforcement over 200 trees were brought down and several houses damaged. Rwported at 12: 45 pm on saturday

Severe Weather Threat tomorrow afternoon!!!!!

Be on the look out for large hail, strong winds and even an isolated tornado.  A strong cold front will be approaching us during the late afternoon and the combination of a strong low level jet and a very cold air mass meeting a warm dry airmass we see the potential of a large severe weather outbreak.

ill have another update tomorrow

Man United Fans 4 Life Guest Post

Hi everyone this is Frankie from Man United Fans 4 life blog which is a blog of my favorite soccer team Manchester United! The Team is based out of Manchester England and for this guest post I will talk a little about the relationship between Soccer and Weather. Unlike other sports soccer usually doesnt stop due to inclemate weather. It must be very Inclemate weather meaning as long as the ball rolls on the surface they will play. Obviously if there is a threat of lightning the game will be postponed for the safety of the players and fans. In Countrys such as England and Ireland everyday rain showers is very common so soccer over there is usually played in wet sloppy conditins this calls for grounds crew and field staff to take constant care of the pitch to make sure it is playable and not torn up after a match. But in places such as South America and Mexico it is usually played very dry and hot conditions, players here have to be careful not to pass out when playing in games with tempetures over the 90's. All over the globe they play soccer and in most places it is so important to the supporters that no matter the weather they will be there for their team. I know if I was in manchester a little rain would not bother me at all!!
