tornado outbreak

Hey you guys,
Steve again.

Last night, May 15, 2013 brought huge tornadoes to north texas between the hours of 6 P.M and 1 A.M this morning. In total, there were at least 10 tornadoes. The number of confirmed deaths is 6, with at least a hundred enjured. The largest tornado I believe happened in Johnson county around Clebern, however it could’ve been in grand prerry. All I know, is that there was a mile wide tornado some where south and west of Dallas, and that it flattened homes, caused fatalities, and left many people enjured and/or homeless.

This is the largest tornado outbreak we’ve seen in 1 year, 1 month, 6 days, 2 or 3 hours, and about 30 minutes. In fact, you can read about my last tornado outbreak experience by clicking this link to take you to the april 3rd, 2012 page. In that tornado outbreak, there were a total of 17 tornadoes, and at 2:01 P.M, a tornado emergency was declaired for Dallas county. This was the tornado outbreak that hit laincaster and arlington pretty hard, and a tornado came over my school, later wiping out one of those speedy oil change places.

As far as Dallas county went with this tornado outbreak, we only had one warning, but the circulation weakened as it pushed over my area. Sirens did sound in downtown dallas, (a live fox four reporter saw and heard the storm, and broadcasted it over the 10:00 news).

So, to sum things up, last night was a pretty major tornado outbreak across the western counties, and the western half of the metroplex, along with the southwest portion of the metroplex.

news

Hey you guys,
Steve again.

Cold temps, milestones, broken records… wait, woe!!!

Yep, that is exactly how I’ve felt since the last blog post which occurred just short of 36 hours ago. Every since then, wave after wave of jaw dropping news has slammed into me. I better post the latest developments to you.

First of all, I reached another milestone yesterday morning at 9:37 AM, when the 50th follower joined the blog. Thanks 50th follower, because you’ve helped me hit a very important milestone in this blog!
So, now that we have the blog milestone taken care of, I will now talk about the weather.

The weather has been taking mad dips, twists, jumps, and bumps for the last 2 months. It is like we are riding a never ending wild roller coaster, one that leaves you wondering, “What’s next?”
It almost seems one day you are breaking out the hot coco and turning on the heater, while on the next you almost want to take a swim! I still have a feeling that a tornado outbreak is immenent, and tonight only further proves my theory.
Late tonight, a strong coldfront will move into our area, bringing tempratures from the 70’s before midnight to upper 40’s and lower 50’s by sunrise. After the coldfront moves through, scattered light rain, strong winds, and cloudy skies will take over our Thursday; and tempuratures will struggle to make it to 50 all day long!

Not only that, but Thursday night is the more interesting part. Winds will die down, skies will clear, and temperatures will drop into the upper 30’s early Friday morning. This is going to be the coldest it has ever been this late in the spring!!! Yes, you read right, the coldest ever this late in the season!
After that, highs will hit 60 Friday afternoon, which is still 20 degrees short of the average for this time of year, which happens to be 80.

As far as my comments go, I almost wonder if we are going to swim this summer, or ice scate. When will this weather go away? And, why is winter so hesitant on leaving?

Well, as far as life goes, not much has happened. We are doing a research project in social studies, and I got Michael Dell, the creator of the Dell computer. Of course, that does make me pretty happy; it adds some enjoyment to the research project.

As far as blog news goes, you should probably check the latest site news and updates page, because there are new developments and anouncements you must read.
Otherwise, have a great evening, and enjoy the rest of your week!

Thanks for reading,
