NASTY!!!


Today was NASTY!!! The high reached 88 degrees at GTR and at 3pm it was 86 over 77 which again is just NASTY... Especially when we have been lucky with how cool things have been with all the rain... I know its been WAY too much rain, but one of the benefits of all that rain is cooler weather... Today had to be one of the hottest/humid days in Starkville in a month or so... But at least it was windy right... haha... We did have winds gusting near 20 mph from the south and southeast... Tomorrow will be similar with rain and thunderstorms on our doorstep by tomorrow night... Because of the blow off I don't think we'll get to 88... Probably a degree or two lower...

Saturday still looks rainy even though the recent 0z GFS model run has everything speeding up a little, getting most of the heavy rain out before game-time... The older 18z GFS models had heavy rain during game-time... The Canadian slowed down today and the NAM is a little quicker... The European looks consistent and similar to yesterday but it's not digging in the trough near as much as the other models... Definitely a lot more west to east movement... It's going to be close but I still think we will see rain during the game...

I've been slacking with more video uploads but things have been crazy with the Intro to Meteorology midterm... I updated most of the test which took a LONG time... I'll get the West Point, MS tornado video up soon, followed by the best of hurricane/tornado videos... Below is the comparison of the GFS model runs from 18z and 0z...
