[Spring Hawk]

Meanwhile here in Denver we await another fricking snow storm. I'm ok with snow in April, but snow after mother's day is getting to be a bit much.

Awesome.

I've never actually seen a tornado, but I had my first real moments of weather-related fear yesterday when hail began falling on my drive home as I listened to the National Weather Service's robot of doom telling me to immediately seek shelter over the radio.

"robot of doom." LOL

How bad was the hail?

[TallGrass]

Well, that looks safe.

[L. Wade Childress]

there are few things as creepy to me as the voice of Tom the NOAA voice when he announces a tornado warning.

I saw nothing larger than small pellets, although golf ball-size hail was pretty common yesterday.

"A tornado warning has been issued for northern Polk County and southern Boone county until 5:45 pm. At 5:05 pm trained spotters reported seeing a tornado on the ground 3 miles southwest of ..."

[L. Wade Childress]

i was reading the preliminary damage reports and there isnt much evidence to support that there was a long-track tornado in OK yesterday.

didn't 5 people die?

[L. Wade Childress]

at least, but that doesnt mean that the tornado was on the ground the entire time as some people have speculated. a single supercell caused most of the damage as it stayed intact across the state, but with the advanced warnings and spotters i think there would be reports of a huge wedge making its way across half of a state.
