Wednesday weather

Most of the info you need is in the top left chart. Green line is dew point, red is temperature, white lines are standard pressure liens, red tick marks are altitude in km and the wind is the white wind barbs on the right side.

What it is telling you is that there is no cap on the atmosphere giving the storms room to grow as big as they want. Also with the wind there is plenty of direction and speed wind shear to help the storms rotate.

So what you are saying is, we are all going to die?

So if there was a cap in place, the temp line show an increase as you increase in altitude, right? Thanks for the info!

Correct it would show a temperature inversion where instead of cooling with altitude it would eventually warm back up which inhibits the updrafts from growing.

So, people in Carroll need to get to Hy-Vee RIGHT NOW?

Tornado Watch just issued for Omaha area. Most of SE Nebr, SW Iowa, and very NW Missouri.

Is this expected to make its way up to DSM? Weather.com is showing like a 15% chance of rain tonight and I need to decide if I'm canceling practice for the kids.

I'm not a weather expert, but I see nothing on the map right now that would indicate rain, let alone storms.

So much of this post makes you a disgrace to your username.

I don't think 15% is for the whole evening. Maybe at 5pm and then at 10 or 11PM. Over all should probably be around 60%. Omaha's best chance is in the 5-8PM range. I would think DM would be about an hour or 2 later?

That was clear when you said you used the Weather.com app.

Indeed. real graduates of the Iowa State University of Science and Technology at least use the Wundergroud weather stations maps to make their own forecasts...
