Is "Tornado Alert" still a thing?

Asked by Carlene almost 6 years ago

Hi, Carlene. Need a little more context, please.

We are vacationing in Cancun starting October 29th to November 3rd we would like to know how the weather will be. If there will be any hurricanes, rain or approximate weather. Thank You

Asked by Oney P about 5 years ago

Hello. I'm in Texas and generally don't forecast for Cancun. You might try weatherbug.com. Have a great trip!

Does the ‘feel like’ temperature below 32F when the temperature is above 32F cause slippery conditions on sidewalks or garage ramps or should I turn on the ramp heaters then those temperatures exist?

Asked by Jack about 6 years ago

Hi, Jack. Nope, the feels like temperatures is a calculated number. Go with the actual temperature.

Why even if your only calling for a trace or even sometimes flurries even a 10% chance do people flood the stores?

Asked by 24 hotdogs almost 6 years ago

Very interesting question. There is a great deal of effort and study going on over the last couple of years by social scientists to understand how and why people react to various weather situations. Individual past experience has a lot to do with future action. Certainly the tone of the message can have a lot to do with reactions. Social media has also shown that is can magnify a message, often in unhelpful ways. As that research continues my short answer is.....people are complicated. Thanks!

What is the difference between a none , limited ,elevated, significant, and exstreem and a none, GT, marginal, slight, mordant, and high scaling systems? Is it different names for the same thing or is one more percent and one more of the severity

Asked by Max over 5 years ago

Looks like you might be combining more than one system. If you're asking about severe thunderstorms this link might help! https://www.spc.noaa.gov/misc/about.html

How can a blind person determine the distance of a thunderstorm if they cannot see lightning strike?

Asked by Azonah almost 7 years ago

Interesting question. If you do a web search for "lightning detector" you will find some options. Kind of the same principle as hearing a static pop on AM radio. In an active storm it might me difficult to separate specific lightning flashes from thunder. These are commonly used at sporting events and golf courses etc.

What do you think happened. So we drove back from the store and when we got into our neighbourhood it started getting windy, heavy rain, and hail. There was crap blowing across the road. When we drove down our street. Nothing instantly stopped.

Sounds like you may have been right on the edge of a thunderstorm. They can have a pretty tight gradient especially has they approach. Thanks, Dan.
