Kevin Shaw commented on the post, Tornado, Straight Line Wind Damage Assessed In Northern Michigan, on the site Mid Michigan Weather 6 years, 2 months ago
Hi again Cathie. I double checked the location of Lapeer and found it considerably south of the Gaylord MI forecast office area of responsibility (AOR). It showed up in Google Maps east of Flint and within the Detroit/Pontiac NWS forecast office AOR. So I went to their page and unfortunately they apparently did not go out to Lapeer that I could…[Read more]

Thanks for the great report Cathie. I dug up some more information on the 4 confirmed tornadoes from the Gaylord MI NWS website. I didn’t see an F2 tornado in this report – 2 F0 and 2 F1 tornadoes and they didn’t use Lapeer that I could see. But they mentioned the same counties you did. Perhaps the F2 tornado you reported from Lapeer was evaluated…[Read more]

Hi Cathie! Where is this house in your featured image? It almost looks like big lighthouse home. Really nice! I usually assume that the image posted is from the observer’s home or immediate surroundings and when it is not, I like to explain where the image is from. I have asked others on the blog this question and they usually respond with…[Read more]

Notice on the VP2 display featured image that at 11:24 PM I had 2.24″ of rain so far – with only 36 minutes left in the day – and I wound up with 4.34″ in my VP2 tipping bucket. It was really coming down the hardest of the day right at the end of the day! I have a slight data problem as I could not go out right at midnight due to the thunderstorm still in the area, so I went after the all clear (which fortunately was only 15 or so minutes after midnight) and measured, and used my tipping bucket as a partial guide as to my “precipitation split” for the 2 days.
