My prayers are going out to the people in the mid-west

This spring storm season is off the charts. From the Atlanta Journal - Constitution:
Wednesday night's violent storm expected to be ‘off the scale'
The weather Wednesday night is expected to be horrific, frightening and dangerous as a severe storm is expected to race across the metro area at about 50 mph.

Glenn Burns, the chief meteorologist for Channel 2 Action News, said Tuesday evening the “significant tornado parameters” he’s been watching all day Tuesday are “off the scale.”

“When it’s a 1, it means tornadoes are possible. At 3, it means they are likely. Ours is 8 to 11,” Burns said. “All the parameters are there for tornadoes, damaging winds, hail, intense lightning. It very likely we will see some flooding in North Georgia.”

He said people should look for “super cell thunder storms.”

And they should be prepared.

“They need to have a place to go that every family member knows,” Burns said.
Fires in Texas, these storms and the intense flooding to the North. Not a good spring... Posted by DaveH at April 26, 2011 10:16 PM
