Comprehensive Wx for all varieties of weather aficionados, sharing my experiences storm chasing, forecasting, and photographing the wonders of our planet
There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man."

Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

A bi-modal severe weather event impacted the Central and Eastern US. A potent derecho tore a path from Indiana to Delaware, producing gusts up to 100 mph in Maryland and Virginia. In the Central Plains, supercells spawned large hail & 26 weak tornadoes.
