Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster

Irreverent commentary on weather, mainly in MN and CA. (CA has weather, right?) Also photographer, writer and general smart ass.

⁦@granttosterudwx⁩ ⁦@NWSAlbuquerque⁩ Torrential, long-lasting hail near Candelaria and Tramway. Mothball-size hail at times.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@NWSAlbuquerque We’re having a graupel thunderstorm in the foothills.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@NovakWeather May the fun we’re enjoying in the high-elevation Southwest finds it way up there.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@granttosterudwx Yes

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@granttosterudwx Measured 1.5” in less than an hour near Tramway/Candelaria.

@tmobilenews Green bananas becoming ripe as I wait FOREVER at @TMobileHelp store. Stay away people.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@granttosterudwx Is there any historical measure of how significant/unusual a wind event like this is? Looks like we're about to hit a 9th straight hour of 49-60 mph wind gusts.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@NWSAmarillo Why does the forecast use the term "snow showers" for tonight and tomorrow with such sig accumulations expected? Why not just plain "snow?"

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@NWSAlbuquerque Does this sustained major wind event rank among top windstorms? Looks like we're approaching a 9th hour of 49+ gusts.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@NWSAlbuquerque Today has to be a top 3 most insufferable day of the year....

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@wogggieee @pathammer Evidently.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@pathammer From Wikipedia re: new Buff stadium: “The city's reputation for cold, snowy weather also played into the team's decision to make the new stadium open-air, as the snowy conditions often make for compelling television.” Yet they move the Sunday game! WTF?? #Irony

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@NWSAlbuquerque Where can I find Albuquerque average snowfall by month?

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@WeatherNation Sure.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

⁦@granttosterudwx⁩ ⁦@NWSAlbuquerque⁩ Heavy snow shower just came thru Tramway/Candelaria area.

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@granttosterudwx But tomorrow morning is especially iffy?

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@granttosterudwx Realizing there are no guarantees, of the next 4 mornings (W-Sat), which might be best bet for morning launch?

[Minn-Cali-NM Forecaster @MNforecaster]

@granttosterudwx @NWSAlbuquerque Not the funnest night at the ballpark.

@MPRweather Surprised the Twins didn't cover the field earlier with the storm so obviously coming!
