Hello all, as you know, the removal of the API on this platform required us to stop posting reports last year. We now are posting live reports to be publicly available on Blu Skii (purposely misspelled to keep post available).

Here is a break down of timing for select areas of the country for the severe storms today and tonight. Multiple rounds of severe thunderstorms are possible across several areas. Please see the individual graphics below for more specific timing information.

A note from @SkipTalbot :
“A graduate degree in meteorology and advanced spotter training from the NWS are wholly inadequate for making one a safe and effective storm chaser. It’s left up to the chaser to self-educate and gain field experience through risky trial and error. This process is greatly assisted by those who have come before sharing what they’ve learned.
The pioneers and veterans of chasing in the decades before I took to the road paved the way for my own endeavor into storm chasing. Now it’s our turn to pass the baton.
Jennifer and I are teaming up with @GirlsWhoChase to lead AMS sponsored virtual training sessions through the COMET MetEd program.
Geared toward beginner and aspiring chasers, we’ll be covering topics in storm structure identification and how to safely position around these storms to successfully document them. There’s a whole array of additional topics from experienced and talented people as well.
We’re live on Saturday morning, March 2.

We heard there’s a big mid-summer ballgame tonight and thought it was a great time to talk a little lightning safety from behind the plate, featuring NWS Director Ken Graham.
PLAY BALL! ⚾ ...unless, you know...there's lightning nearby.

In a wonderful tribute, storm chasers from all over Eastern Oklahoma positioned themselves and sent back their GPS signal to form a CB over Bartlesville to honor Clint Boone. What a wonderful tribute. @theScantman

Pat Spoden was one of the first meteorologists to identify the tornado that destroyed parts of Kentucky last week. He told 60 Minutes that debris from the storm was spiraling to as high as 30,000 feet – about the height where some commercial airliners fly. cbsn.ws/3q8gKHv

Leading tornado scientist Karen Kosiba is working to answer some of our biggest questions about storms. She says scientists have very little “predictive power” about how intense a tornado will be or how long it will last. cbsn.ws/3pbjPYb

This week, the National Weather Service is measuring the path, power, and duration of last week’s tornado. It’s estimated 15,000 buildings were destroyed across the region at a cost of more than $3.5 billion. cbsn.ws/3yH902S
