We've had multiple tornado warnings this evening with two in effect now. There is also a tornado watch. Yet all  of the indicated radars are out of service. In my opinion, the NWS is not showing nearly enough urgency to replace the 30+ year old radars that are in service now. These are Cincinnati, Dayton, Columbus and Mansfield. 

There is a significant risk of tornadoes -- and some could be strong -- in the brown hatched area.  Below is the forecast for damaging winds and large hail. The red area has an enhanced  risk and the yellow area has a significant risk. The hatching means winds may exceed 75 mph and hail size may exceed two inches. 

I hate this topic but here we go again........  The Trump Administration is not  spraying chemicals into the atmosphere to control the weather. The explanation is below. If you actually watch the video, Mr. Zeldin is saying the opposite of what the tweet contends. The U.S. government is not spraying "dangerous chemicals including sulfur dioxide" into the sky to control the weather. In fact, he is saying the opposite -- the Trump EPA is trying to stop it!   The same is true at the new EPA websites he announced . The EPA says they are trying to stop  individuals and groups from attempting to geoengineer the atmosphere -- a dangerous activity.  The State of Florida and Governor Ron DeSantis has enacted into law a complete ban on geoengineering with strong criminal penalties. However, there have been no reports of lawbreakers since the law was enacted. I don't write on this topic every time I hear from these folks. But, I want to assure my readers I am completely ...

Since 1900, the coast population of Florida has increased by 68 times!  So, when you hear about skyrocketing damage and insurance costs, it is because we have put some much more to be wrecked in their paths. 

...that, for those of us who do not  have pay cable, you still see the 30-year old Twister  on TV all of the time (it was on national TV Saturday afternoon) but never see 2024's Twisters?

To my atmospheric science colleagues, hope you are having a great day. "Observing" refers to measuring the atmosphere with thermometers, weather balloons, radar, et cetera.
