Weather Update And A New Server!! Thank You Bloggers For Everything!!

Lets take a quick look at the weather outlook for later on Tonight into Saturday morning.... We do have some Scattered rain chances as well as a few thunderstorms cannot be ruled out.. Tonight we have a really slight chance at some really light scattered hit and miss showers. Anything tonight would be later on After Midnight and only around a Tenth inch or less. However as we head into Saturday morning early we will see some more widespread scattered shower over take the area as they form along a cold front.
You can see in this map I put together for you all above. Once that cold front makes a move on us by tomorrow we will see more showers develop along side it. The good news is that at this time we are not expecting it to really become well developed until in moves off to our east! This is when things have a better chance at becoming severe. As for tomorrow we will see some scattered thunderstorms across the area. Not currently looking for anything severe however we may wake up to some thunder. The reason I'M not looking for anything severe at this time is because we are rather stable at this time. Our Lifted index outlook (LI) is only expected to fall to around -1.70 to maybe -2.00 by time the front moves in. As some of you already know you usually need a Lifted index of around -4.00 and lower for things to really become severe!

Forecast Tip..... Lifted Index is used to show how stable the atmosphere is or is going to be at a certain time.

As far as rainfall goes for Saturday! I think we will keep it anywhere between a Tenth inch to a possible quarter in area. As always with locally higher amounts possible with thunderstorms.....

Off To Wordpress We Go..... ;)

OK! If you all are happy with Wordpress then I shall be back here in a few with an update on your weather forecast as well as the link to the new blog server!

Thanks for ALL your support!!!! You guys and girls are the BEST! ;) I know you will love the new server. Nothing is changing other then the server! You all can still e-mail me your weather pictures at storm18mini@aol.com and I shall post them.... We can still talk on the blog just like we do here! You can post fast in storms with no problems.... and best of all!!!! No rude Bloggers! lol........

I will check back real soon.....

Thanks again.

Tank you fellow Bloggers!! The BEST IN THE WORLD!!

That is AMAZING!! Everyone! I can truly say that I had no idea how much this blog means to all of you! Really I had no idea how many read this blog! After reading all your WONDERFUL comments I cannot leave you all hanging..... So you all tell me what you think of this idea I had!

I found out about wordpress, from one of our bloggers Brow. Wordpress is something you all already use by people like Mike Prangley when he had his WLFI blog! It is simple to use.... The reason I would switch to wordpress is because it has a great comment control on it! You all will be able to comment without having to sign up for anything!! Which I know a lot of people don't like to do! This would stop all rude comments from getting through........

Would you all be ok with this???? The weather page would still be up! And wordpress is still a Weather Blog that I post on just like I do on here.... I'M trying to make it as close to this as possible. This would not be a MAJOR change. I just want to know if you all would be ok with this and still follow my blog?!?!

Again let me know in comments.... Until I would have the other blog up and going this will be our main blog.

Thank you EVERYONE!!!! ;) I will check back.

This Blog Is Coming To An End.... Thanks For All Your Support!

Well, as you can see the sky's look as though they will try and clear out a little bit today before to long! I do think we keep today mostly dry for the most part.... Still right now as the morning goes on we are still trying to get these crazy clouds out of our area lol. So what about the rain everyone is talking about for today?? Well I shall get right to it! Take a look below.You can see that the main thing causing the possibility for some light scattered rain showers today will be that low pressure system to our north and east.... This is what may spin out a few light scattered showers from the north. Still we are only going to give this around a 30% to 40% chance. This would be later on this evening..... Not looking for much this time around.... Rainfall looking around a tenth inch.

Now I have something I would like to fill you all in on.... I love this Blog and I love my Bloggers as well as keeping you all updated the best way I can in and out of storms. It has been a wonderful three years on weather blogs for me however it is getting close to ending this weather blog. This is a Weather blog and a fun talking blog for people to come and enjoy. This is not a place that I put together for everyone to come a fight over the weather! The weather is not something that one can even fight about!! Really!! I read all the comment that get posted and I just wanted to say that I'M in NO competition with ANYONE. I just post my thoughts on the weather and I always hoped it helped you all as well.

All these Anonymous posters starting things / fights over weathermen is also pointless..... In case you all want to know why I talk about Mike Prangley,on this blog more then I do Chad evens, it is simply because I know Mike and he has helped me SO MUCH when it comes to weather!!! I have known him a long time and I have talked and seen him many more times. I have never said anything bad about Chad, and I'M not going to.... He has not done anything.. I just don't know him as well. As for if Mike is better then Chad or Chad better them Mike, It does not matter!!!! Everyone does the forecast a different way. Some better then others. It happens! But it is nothing to go wild over. I'M just getting tired of watching people go at it over something like weather and weathermen. That is not what I made this blog for and it is not what I wanted. All these people commenting anonymous and saying bad / rude things to hurt other people, it is nothing but childish play.. Lets all grow up and let it be... This is the reason this blog is coming to an end! I do thank you all for supporting me over all this time. But when it comes to fighting over the weather!! Lets don't do it.......... I started this blog without having to! Just because I wanted to. I get nothing out of it other then to read your comments! Which I love doing. But not when they are rude and childish.... Please in the future be kinder and nicer to people!!

One Act Of Random Kindness Can Change The World.

If you all really want this blog to continue then there is only one other thing I can do!! And that is make it so everyone who wants to post has to have a blogger ID..... This is very simple to do!

It is all up to you! Thank you for everything!! Please let me know in the comments..... ;]

I will check back soon.... It is not over yet!

Low Staying South Keeps The Heavy Rain With It!!!

This is the set up I was talking about in my last post! This low pressure system has set up more to our south then it was showing us a few days ago. And now it has set up a few more miles south then first expected. This has kept more of the heavy rainfall totals to our south once again.. We did have the rainfall amounts right on the money which I'M proud of lol. It is just that they stayed around boon, county and south.... This is where they had that .25" to .30" inches we talked about and called for last night. That is what happens when the low sets up a few 100 miles south.

Still I'M going to keep us in around a 20% to 30% chance at some light scattered off and on showers today however nothing heavy and no thunderstorms to worry about.... Strong that is anyway! I'M not looking for much this time around.. Good news is if you are planing to do some work outside today it will be nice and cool again with highs in the low to middle 70s. Not bad not bad at all..........

I will check back if there are any more major changes in the weather.... This is the main reason I will NOT use those Radar Image models that show what the radar should look like at a given time. I have found that they are wrong to many many times.... It is always much better to not only go with the weather models but also your gut!

I will check back....................
