Heyyy got a heavy roof shaking downpour here. That’s about it.

If the core metro gets any storms from this line approaching from the West- it will be in the next 30-60 minutes if we can get any additional development with dewpoints in the low 60s before the cold front moves thru. Slow clap…. 👏🏼

My storm activity so far has consisted of 5 or 6 mini downpours that lasted about 8 seconds each with little cells that keep popping up and quickly moving away as they form right over me.

Kinda summarizes our year so far. 🫠😂

Sent to me of the storm just North of Cannon Falls that recently was Tornado warned.

Also a Tornado Warning North of us.

Little Tornado action on the SE side of town right now.

50/50 shot if storms fill the gap west of the cities. But there sure are a lot of storms in the region!

None of the CAMs seem to have a good handle on this evening tho especially with the current storms SW of the cities.

Tornado Watch issued for the Twin Cities. Considering the recent Convective Discussion from SPC suggested 40% chance of Watch issuance- things are escalating. Watch is in place til 9pm and INCLUDES the Twin Cities.

Things are already getting spicy to our West!

So what’s the play on all this “have at least 3 days of survival supplies” and others suggesting 90 days for military etc. seems like drumming up fear to get people to spend money. Short term stimulation to the economy and distract people? I have a decent amount of stuff already from a couple years back, but it’s literally all I’m seeing on my feed.

The threat level for today has been raised. Increased storm coverage and also chances for tornadoes have gone up. Main risk timing is between 2-8pm. Expect storms to form pretty quickly if this scenario does verify. There’s still a chance that it busts- but I think that’s the less likely scenario.

You don’t see this too often when approaching November- but we have a Severe Weather and Tornado Risk tomorrow in the Twin Cities. After some AM rains. It will be interesting to see how things shake out.

Rainy day mood:

People!!! Come on now. 🫠😂

Bro is trying to swindle me into an early dinner.

3:45pm- Thin blue/green line is the cold front approaching the metro. Temps will drop from the 70s back to the 50s thru the evening and then lower beyond that. Also some showers possible after the front pushes thru. You can also see the wind change as indicated by the wind barbs on the map.
