Update: 2:30 pm. Severe Storm Warning for Scott and Dakota county, south metro area. Reports of 1.5" diameter hail and winds as high as 60 mph - warning in effect until 3 pm, cells moving northeast at 35. Very strong storms over St. Paul with 3/4" hail estimates. Keep in mind a tornado watch is in effect until 4 pm - any one of these storms could spin up an isolated tornado in the coming hours....greatest risk of tornadoes still appears to be south/east of St. Paul.
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.
