Severe 2024 Severe Discussion

Wow, already canceled the tornado watch here. That has to be a record for the quickest a watch has been canceled. Once again no storm for me when under a watch but had some last night and this morning. I am going to start keeping a file of everytime I am under a severe thunderstorm or tornado watch and if I actually get a storm or not. See if I am really right when I say 9 out of 10 times I don't get a storm when under a watch.

Where did I say anything about wanting severe? I said the majority of time I am under a watch I do not get any storms at all. I never said anything about wanting severe weather. Reading is fundamental.
 
Had pretty bad flooding today around here! A storm came through this morning and dropped about an inch, this afternoon’s severe storms dropped over 4” in spots! Cars stranded in flood waters and stuff! Pretty unusual. Got a chance at more severe tomorrow, then calm for 5-6 days

I’m not sure how anyone reading your posts could argue that your statements mean you want severe.

As I read it my understanding concludes that you have an issue with how often severe is called for by meteorologists that never come to fruition, thus leaving the reader thinking that maybe severe weather predictions might not be that accurate. That’s what I get out of it anyway.

maybe I'm just tired of reading the complaints every time I visit. With how many post I read from OP? I really cant remember the last one I seen with anything logical.
 
Lots of flooding yesterday in town! This is normally a trickle! 0689DD0F-77E9-496A-AEE6-B7EDE705F172.jpeg
 
Severe looking limited now. Heck even the development of storms in general look minor. Can’t afford a dry-less front with a dry week ahead.
 
Well, maybe there's a chance. Saw this posted on Facebook from WRAL met Mike Maze.

Heads up to Wake County, a thunderstorm is moving through Chatham County right now and should hold together and dump some heavy rain along with frequent lightning.

I get we don't have storms like we use to but to judge NC storms on your backyard is a bit crazy. There were plenty of severe thunderstorm warnings yesterday for a level 2 risk

Lol 2 decades of trying....I admire the effort, though! 😅

I didn't say there wasn't. Just saying for me personally I don't get a storm the majority of time when under a watch or when the SPC puts out a risk. And the tornado watch they put out last week only to cancel it 2 hours later was horrible. Maybe predicting storms in the Triangl is just as hard as predicting snow now.
 
Anybody ever look at this? How accurate is it and what is it? A6DD0D84-32D5-4EA0-A306-CBC2E85D7AF8.jpeg

Nope! It's been a weird weather day for the New England states! I live way far form the storms headed into western Maine in a little while but still checking the radar. There was a nice thunderstorm with a good amount of rain around 3pm. I hope everyone stays safe and cool as ya'll can!
 
Did not see this the other day when I posted! 😳😳B5ECBD14-3407-43F7-8AA8-431699682FD5.png
 
This storm was in the middle of nowhere in Nebraska and was unwarned originally. Maybe one of the more spectacular tornado videos of the year despite it not being a close intercept. Just amazing.

 
Up here in Maine, we got a slight risk for severe weather, again! Hopefully it will just be some thunderstorms and that's it. I moved north partly to get away from the severe weather other than nor'easters! Ya'll all be safe and cross your fingers for safe weather!
 
Might have had a tornado up above me in Haynesville, Maine. The severe line has diminished and looks like a good thunderstorm might be almost here! Pretty rare for a tornado up here!
