What’s with all the bad weather today? There is sever storms and tons of snow all around.

Asked by Jamie almost 6 years ago

Fall is a season of transition so the atmosphere is trying to figure it out!

Have you ever seen a red tornado?

Asked by Dave over 6 years ago

In pictures, yes. A few that have traveled over an open area of red dirt that the tornado picked turned it red. Thanks, Dave!

When will we see more settled, drier weather in the West of Scotland in particular?

Asked by Craig Gillon over 6 years ago

Hi, Craig. Europe weather and climate is pretty far out of my area of expertise. You might have better luck with the UK Met Office. Good luck. https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/

Have you seen the video of the Ohio weather man who gets mad at viewers for complaining that he interrupted his show? What do you think?

Asked by Manning over 6 years ago

Hi, Manning. Yup, saw it. Feel bad for him since that video will be attached to him for a long time. Often times it is a hard choice to break into programming. We all understand the interruption. Severe weather can be a high stress environment. It is particularly frustrating when someone makes a ridiculous comment like, “you just want to hear yourself talk.” Happens to me just about every event. Gotta take a deep breath and move forward. For every snotty response I usually get “thanks for keeping us informed,” tenfold. Thanks!

What are the 6 elements of the atmosphere?

Asked by Darinesha White over 6 years ago

Hi, Darinesha. Not sure exactly what you are asking. If you mean the gases that make up the atmosphere you might do a web search. The two highest concentrations are nitrogen and oxygen and a list of other things including water vapor. Thanks!

Hey, thank you so much for answering my question! Just one more, can say for example a local office wanted to put out a tornado watch and the SPC did not. Could they if they really wanted to?

Asked by Donovin over 6 years ago

Nope. Watch must come from SPC. They stay in close contact with the local offices. Thanks.

What do you think about climate change and global warming?

Asked by Jefferson almost 6 years ago

I generally stick to short-term forecasting as opposed to climatology, Jefferson. Thanks.
