***Official 2025 Weather Thread***

Storm Chaser Brad Arnold said he was cutting south to Des Moines to chase the blips that might blow up into supercells, but Head Meteorologist Chris Kuball of We Are Iowa Local 5 is bearish because the convergence along the dryline is quite weak due to the southwesterly winds.

Chris is wrong because of the dryline going stationary and the cold front blasting through Nebby right now....winds have backed a bit. There could still be some fun tonight if severe weather is what you live for.
 
Oh my didn't know I couldn't express a different opinion. I didn't say anything negative about the weather thread at all but keep being a soft gentle snowflake.
(Even turned this into a weather analogy for you to keep the thread on topic)
Fair enough. I read into you post something that you didn't mean. I apologize

People think if there’s not 50+ tornadoes in a single storm system these days it’s a bust. What we saw this spring in Arkansas and surrounding states isn’t something you see all the time.

That north cell is beelining for Ames but it's weakening, both cells are kind of weakening TBH, we have exited the magic hour for tornadoes and inhibition/capping is starting to return as the cold front approaches.

Chris Kuball has called the threat largely over, I wouldn't rest easy until those cells are past though.
