[Lightning]

Looks like my area is under a slight risk for Wednesday. I hope the air is not too stable.

They shifted the slight risk down to the south.  I hate it when the air is stable and when they come through during the overnight and early morning hours.  I want them during the day, late morning, afternoon, evening and nighttime before my bedtime.

The flooding potential here with this storm is reminding me of the September 2009 Flooding. We most likely won't see the 8-12 inches of rain we saw then, but the potential to get half of that will cause some havoc. Well at least it'll contribute to the drought busting like the previous storm last weekend.

All of the sudden, there seems to be a lack of activity. I do not like it when it's like this. They are forecasting dry weather through the rest of March.  I hate those ridges of high pressure, especially when they are over the southeast and keep that upper-level support and storm track to our north. It is soooo boring. 


I want it to be active in the southeast, in my part of the country!!! It was inactive last year and I want it to be different this year!

[Lightning]

Looks like my area is gonna get it tomorrow. Want the storms but not damaging tornadoes. :/

[Mr. Rainman]

Sadly, TWCC_Lightning, you're going to bet both. Wind is definitely in your picture, and there is a 15% chance of tornadoes for your area.
