Can hail really fall in the shape of hearts?

Asked by Rar about 6 years ago

Sure. Any odd shaped stone is likely an amalgamation of a bunch of smaller stones that have partially melted in the storm and then frozen together again. So I guess in theory you could get just about any shape! Thanks.

Kevin, have you got the videos I sent in. I have tried twice but am not sure what is going on. Thanks! Tell me if I need to send them in again. It was of a guy giving commentary on the weatherman who went off on people complaining.

Asked by Nsnsndndnsnsnddj over 5 years ago

I did see that some months ago when it happened. Tough situation. Can’t say I have a comment.

Does the ‘feel like’ temperature below 32F when the temperature is above 32F cause slippery conditions on sidewalks or garage ramps or should I turn on the ramp heaters then those temperatures exist?

Asked by Jack over 6 years ago

Hi, Jack. Nope, the feels like temperatures is a calculated number. Go with the actual temperature.

If you could broadcast weather anywhere in the world for just one day, and I mean anywhere, where would you go?

Asked by ash over 5 years ago

There is a small town in Italy called Riva del Garda. Has nothing to do with weather, just want to stand and look out at the lake. Or from the eye of any hurricane. Thanks, Ash.

what do you know about the gulf stream nozzle and its affect by global warming

Asked by pwinkler over 7 years ago

Global warming issues is not something I generally comment on. Climate is more of a long-term subject as opposed to weather which is more day-to-day and short-term. Thanks!

Do people ever get upset when your interrupt a broadcast for a severe weather or something like a police chase. Infomercials now you can play that weather all night man, lol.

Asked by Dannny about 6 years ago

All the time, Danny. Most folks seem to appreciate that we are trying to keep them informed and in many cases safe. But some people do get pretty grumpy when we interrupt their TV shows. Thanks.

If there was a Blizzard warring and there was thunder snow with high winds. Would they post a severe thunderstorm warring? Could they and would it even be needed?

Asked by DJ over 5 years ago

Likely not. A severe thunderstorm warning is triggered by one inch hail and/or 58 mph winds. Different process. A thunderstorm is more of a local convective event and strong winds in a blizzard are a larger scale pressure gradient event. Great question!
