The DOWs have left the building! @PERiLS_Project has come to a close. We had a great experience working with so many students, collecting data in QLCSs. Now the data QC and analysis begins! But 1st…BEST! We will be headed to the plains to study low-level winds in tornadoes!

Our first look at the damage of the #littlerock tornado - the storm continues now into eastern Arkansas. We hope everyone is ok. Our field teams are assessing damage on the ground and bringing us the latest on @WeatherNation

Nearly a month after it first formed between Indonesia & Australia, and after crossing the Indian Ocean, striking Madagascar & Mozambique, then slowly drifting back east into open water… Cyclone Freddy is once again a tropical storm.

@DopplerChase Can you see where the tallest overall storm was observed? I'd be curious to see if its over South America or Africa!

Yesterday got me thinking, "what's some of the tallest storms GPM-DPR has observed?". Here is a monster sampled on 09 April 2016 on the border of Argentina and Paraguay. Clear overshooting top captured by GPM-DPR (fig1) and maybe if you squint you can see a hook echo shape (fig2)

WRF users: Has anyone had success introducing an idealized TC (generated from em_tropical_cyclone) into a real WRF simulation? Using the Bogus TC option in the namelist could be an alternative, but I thought that TC might be more unrealistic...

The number of billion-dollar weather disasters due to windstorms is increasing. A new, multi-disciplinary research center at #ILLINOIS will work to mitigate the impact of extreme wind events and build community resilience to the disasters they cause. ▶ bit.ly/3BKhiIN

Thursday in Champaign. Snow? Sleet? Rain? Freezing rain? Thunder?

@skydrama @NWSLincolnIL Thank you for all your great reporting Andrew! I wondered if you knew how they determine the official total for "Champaign" given the accumulation gradient across the county?

@afadames This is an interesting observation. I've noticed the exact opposite trend for tornado research, but haven't thought about it in regards to tropical meteorology. I have found that not many tropical positions are solicited in the U.S., so not sure if that could be a factor...
