Migration Day 24

Wind, Hail, and Tornado Reports
+0 Miles


A powerful storm system swept across Indiana early this morning. Richard, Charlie, and Chris sat in darkness for hours while the winds shook the motor home. Chris reports: "The continuous lightning gave us brief glimpses of the trees straining against their roots. One mature tree actually did come down just 100 feet away from us. We went out to check the birds at first light and were relieved to find no damage to the pen and all the birds looked relaxed and happy, playing in the standing water." You guessed it: another day in Morgan County.

Today's Question: The forecast for the rest of the week does not look promising. It looks suspiciously familiar to the past week with a tight pressure gradient across the Ohio Valley keeping the winds southerly and temperatures well above normal. How would you feel if you were on the team? If you were one of the whoopers?
