Weather picked up tonight! It about had to, 101 with 60% humidity today, the dew point was 68 and a cold front was moving in.
I went storm spotting, called in to the Skywarn net and told them where I was and asked where to go, I was told to sit still.
Man that was CRAZY! Straight line winds in excess of 70mph, it was trying to pick the truck up! They told me to point the truck to face the winds, when I told them I was they were speechless for a bit, then NOAA came on wanting to know the direction of the winds!
Even when the wind died down the rain was so heavy it was zero visibility! Crazy stuff for sure! The tornado sirens went off all around us, but the closest wall cloud with rotation was more than 20 miles away, nothing hit the ground as far as I know. But the wind sure tore the hell out of things!
