ahhh it's always fun and worth watching but it's November and not May. Moisture is always the problem this time of year for severe wx. I'm watching it but I'm not too excited.

This time of the year "fore"casting is close to useless on getting specific... More of a "now"casting thing, where we can tell an environment might support sevwx, but until the day of - there's not much value in getting overly optimistic.

I got called out to do some storm spotting last night. I saw some rain, and a lot of straight line winds, but no wall clouds, tornados, hail, or anything like that.

There was a lot of lightning with last nights event and it sparked several grass fires in the Beggs area. At one point I heard Mounds, Slick, Twin Hills, and Preston fire departments assisting Beggs with multiple grass fires in different areas at the same time.

I thought it was crazy that while we were getting 2 inches of rain up this way you all were fighting grass fires!
