***Official 2025 Weather Thread***

This was the second consecutive storm in the last week where there were no audible sirens in Ankeny east of I-35. I guess we only need to be warned when the severe weather is around the DSM airport?
 
What a stupid way to start a Saturday. Woke 3 sleeping children (who appeared to be ready to sleep in for a while) and took them down to the basement.
Me too. We are in our new house after rebuilding after last years tornado. Can’t be too relaxed anymore.
 
The KCCI guy was less good. He said at one point, “we weren’t really ready for severe weather this morning”. Think they were a little understaffed and caught off guard.
13 only had Gabe Pro there. I thought he did a great job by himself though. 13 has an elite weather team.
 
As active of a pattern as we are in, I’ll be shocked if we don’t see some major straight line wind event in the next month or so

Nutrient (Snodgrass) was talking about the potential for derecho’s yesterday for the next few weeks.
