T - Storm Update.

Above is a look at the latest radar image. Good news is currently none of these cells have severe thunderstorm warnings with them! However there are some embedded mesocyclones inside them, Which means that they have the potential to rotate however are not currently! The mesocyclones are showing up by the circle icon just southwest of Lafayette, Also some small hail is possible in the darker reds just southwest of the Lafayette area, Things will continue to be laoud and wet over the next hour or so for the Lafayette, area and over the next few hours the more west of Lafayette, you go.

So again currently nothing warned which is good news, If anything changes I will let you know!

90s Return!

Well, my grandma had a great birthday. She even went on a moped ride that evening lol. For those of you who don't know my grandma, She loves to ride her moped! lol. 65 and still as wild and fun as ever lol. That's that Hatke spunk lol :)

Well, bloggers the past few days we have seen that the forecast has been calling for scattered thunderstorms just about everyday this past week. However we have seen more partly cloudy skies then anything! So whats the deal?? Well, when the forecast says Chance of scattered pop up showers or thundershowers in the area, it's just that! A Chance!. Otherwise we have been looking for partly cloudy skies. This is the pattern that will continue into the next few days as well. Take a look below.
This chart above is looking at tomorrow morning (Monday at 8:am EDT). You can see we are looking for a chance of a few scattered hit and miss showers / thundershowers in the area. Some of the storms that pop up could become strong at times in parts of the WLFI viewing area. Because of this chance for some pop up strong storms somewhere in the WLFI viewing area, the national weather service has gone ahead and issued our area to be in that slight risk for severe.
You can see us in that yellow area above. Now again I want to point out that not necessarily everyone in the viewing area will see storms, or strong storms for that matter. We have around a 40% chance of scattered showers / T - storms in the area. Otherwise I look for partly cloudy skies.

This is much of the same story for Tuesday as well. A chance of scattered pop up showers / T - Storms in the area, Otherwise partly cloudy skies.
The big difference on Tuesday will be the temperatures! Yes, you can see that warm front moving through the area Monday night bringing the low 90s as high by Tuesday! (POOL WEATHER) ;)

Just remember to be safe!

That's the break down on this weeks odd forecasting weather. I'll be here if needed. As in if we do happen to see any stronger storms move into the area!

Take care and God Bless!

Outlook Into The Weekend.

Hey bloggers. Sorry I haven't posted in a while, Things are starting to get busy with it being summer and all. So I thought I'd pop in with a quick look at your forecast over the next two days. Hows that sound?

Let's get right to it.

Quick Cast.....
Above is a look at the surface chart for tomorrow (Thursday). I'm keeping around a 30% chance of a few hit and miss scattered showers / thundershowers in the area. However this is a slight chance. Some areas of the viewing area could see showers while others may stay dry. Otherwise I look for partly cloudy skies across the area. Highs in the lower 80s with a low that night in the lower 60s. Winds between 10 and 15 mph.
As we head into Friday, You can see this surface chart above looking at Friday around 8:am EDT. More scattered shower / scattered thundershower chances in the area. Again only around a 30% chance. Otherwise expect partly cloudy skies. High in the middle 80s and a low that night in the lower 60s. Winds between 5 and 10 mph.

As for your extended outlook into Sunday.
Yes, we will be keeping the chance of showers / thundershowers in the forecast all the way through the weekend. But do remember that this is not an all day rain event on any of these days, So don't cancel any plans, Just remember to take an umbrella! ;) Also I see the 90s making a return by this wekend!

Take care bloggers. I'll try to pop in a bit more often!

God Bless.

Pray For No Rain Til After The Game!!

Above is a look at what the surface chart should look like by 8:pm EDT tonight. You can see that warm front is bringing in the warmer air for tomorrow the start of the weekend. I'm talking about highs around 93* degrees. And once that cold front moves in from our northwest we could see a few pop up scattered thunderstorms in the area. Some of which may be severe!
Here is a look at the surface chart for 8:am EDT Saturday. The warm front is passing through and the cold front to the west isn't far away. As we head through out the day tomorrow we have around a 30% to 40% chance of a few scattered hit and miss pop up thunderstorms in the area. Once they pop up we will have to watch them as some could become severe.
The greatest chance for severe will most likely come later on that evening into the early night. You can see above this is a look at the surface chart by 8:pm EDT Saturday. As the cold front moves in more storms will start to pop.

I really hope we miss out on the pop up storms tomorrow as I have a Softball game scheduled for 5:pm that evening. I'm going ahead and telling you all this so that if you don't see me on the blog then you know why!

So pray for no rain til after the game! ;)

Take care bloggers and keep your eyes on the radars!

God Bless!
