What's up with the Yellowstone rain pretty much closing the park and stranding people there. Absolutely crazy. You'd figure it would be a drought or fire that would be the issue.
They get a metric butt-ton of snow every year, so I assume this is runoff. There is a river that winds through the northern(?) part of the park into Yellowstone Lake, so I can see that overflowing and causing issues.
I have a friend that works in water management out west, I asked him and he said:

"Local storms...having similar issues in the Feather River basin upstream of Oroville--one of the state hwys is cut in three spots. 2-3 inches of rain from local thunderstorms."

Walking outside today is like walking into an oven. It's gross.

Can't wait for the cold front to move in later. I saw a high of 69° on Saturday.

Your kind generally stops at the door and closes it once the others have gone in, yes.

NWS FB page reporting “ping pong ball sized hail” just west of Mercer County :shocked:

Radar looks like Beaver County will slide between two bad cells.

I was limited to 5 minutes, I think. Had to wear PPE specially designed for that temperature, so didn't feel too much. The gloves were a little weak, so my hands did start to freeze pretty quick. It sucked bc I had to use my hands to move some valves around, and it wasn't easy with these big bulky things.

In case you have ever wondered what prompts tornado warnings, check out this radar image. This is a velocity scan. Green is wind going opposite the storm direction, red is wind going with the storm's direction. When you see those colors side by side, that indicates rotation and potential tornado forming.

It’s weirdly yellow outside. It looks like Mexico on Breaking Bad.

There is a nice, yellow glow outside right now. Reminds me of a Hollywood movie that takes place in Mexico.
