I'm not sure what to say on this day of national tragedy. The damage from the Moore, Okla., tornado of May 20, 2013, is incredible. Our thoughts go out to the victims and their families. As meteorologists, what can we add? The tragedy probably couldn't be avoided, and if you're thinking it could have, stop. The best I can do

When I saw that Google and Time had partnered to create a 30-year satellite time-lapse of Earth, my first question was: "How can this illustrate weather?" My first answer was: Devil's Lake, North Dakota. This lake has been growing larger and larger swallowing up the city for the last 15 years; it's a fascinating story and I last blogged about

Whatever you call them -- "Ice Needling," "Ice Surges," or "Ice Shoves," or "Ice Heaves" -- a phenomenon that I first blogged about in 2009 is back -- with a vengeance! Due to the late-season cold temperatures, an unusual amount of lake ice has crept inland (typically because of high winds), crushing houses on shore in both the United States

UPDATE 5/8/2013: In discussing this event with NCDC Climatologist Grant Goodge (who I worked for there while in college), II believe the claims of 57, 60 or 61 inches are in question. He did an investigation of the event and believes the only reliable observation is 36 inches, though (hypothetically) amounts could have been as high as 50 inches at

UPDATE: Patrick Marsh writes on his blog that "A yearly tornado drought like the current one would occur once every 28, 571 years." UPDATE: My stats below are only for the last 9 years. Harold Brooks from the Storm Prediction Center also blogged that we are at a record low for 12-month tornadoes and tornado deaths. Wow! Henry Margusity also

I've talked before about when severe weather season takes place here in Central Pennsylvania. While it typically runs May through August, there is a small pre-cursor to the season that normally falls in early April. It would appear that this year, that has moved into late April. In the past two weeks, we've had *four* days with severe thunderstorm warnings

The first rainbow of the spring storm season appeared in State College, Pa., yesterday afternoon. I took this photo from my back porch: Occurring just before dusk (What's the best time to see a rainbow?), the rainbow was enhanced by the cellular nature of the quick-moving storm, which dragged rain behind it while the sun was out.
