Yesterday's Severe Warnings

Posted: 18 May 2017 05:06 AM

While the high end tornado threat did not pan out, there was no shortage of severe weather in the state on Wednesday. The featured map displays a heat map of storm based Severe Thunderstorm Warnings issued between 7 AM and midnight. Some isolated areas got five Severe Warnings (orange color) yesterday! The storms produced many reports of wind damage and even some large hail. There are additional chances of more storms this week, but nothing as severe as we saw yesterday.

Voting:
Good = 8
Bad = 1
Abstain = 1
