4:35 pm. Tornado on Doppler. Storm Relative Velocity field shows a strengthening "couplet" north of Cokato, bearing down on Howard Lake, possibly Winsted, Montrose and Watertown. People in the west metro should be prepared to head for the basement over the next 30-60 minutes. This tornadic storm is moving southeast at 35 mph.
Meteorologist Paul Douglas writes about Minnesota weather daily, trying to go beyond the "highs" and "lows" of the weather story to discuss current trends and some of the how's and why's of meteorology. Rarely is our weather dull - every day is a new forecast challenge. Why is the weather doing what it's doing? Is climate change a real concern, and if so, how will my family be affected? Climate is flavoring all weather now, and I'll include links to timely stories that resonate with me.
