2024 - Severe Storms (T-Storms and Blizzards)

[WuDrWu]

How do I not know of this movie? I'll look it up!

Ok…..

1) I’m old, I’m not that old.

2) You’re not that young.

3) There is no Airplane without Airport. Airplane is the spoof.

4) Airport is absolutely spectacular.

5) You have to watch with an eye on the past and how undeveloped society and air travel were in 1970. Don’t allow yourself to compare to present day the first time through…..admittedly easier said than done.

As a child, the insurance counters, insurance vending machines (Guerrero would have hammered that) open airports, ashtrays on the armrests……and watching the planes take off and land, after lunch delivered by train at Casey Jones Junction….did not get any better.

My dad was an airline executive and pilot so I grew up flying on every type of commuter plane known to man in the 70s. Very familiar, hahaha.

Still not sure how I don't recognize the movie but I will watch it. I watched Airplane maybe 100 times once it came on HBO or Skinemax. Weird!

Given that background, I am convinced you are going to enjoy the history behind this cinematic brilliance.

Dean Martin is one of my all time favorite entertainers. Never knew he was in Airport. I'd heard of it but never seen it. Doesn't seem to be streaming for free anywhere but I may just have to rent it on Prime this weekend

Day 3 outlook

Day 2 outlook for Monday. It is a complex situation with many caveats. The good news is that the timing of various factors seems to be off for having a high-end event for Wichita (and much of Kansas).

Watch the dryline and its strength. If storms fire off it on Monday between 4 and 6 p.m., they could have monster hail. If storms fire in your area after midnight, the risk is high winds and small hail. Hopefully, we will get some measurable rain, but that is not even a given.

Today outlook. They have no confidence that storms will fire along the Dryline today. If they do they will be severe. Main action will be overnight in northern Kansas and Nebraska.

Top-end storm potential also means high bust potential. But as they have been saying, this will be a nocturnal event, so the main event will probably be after midnight. They issued a tornado watch to the west, where nothing is going on because storms would likely go severe quickly if they did go up.

The worst thing is if (and that is big if) we get storms tonight, it will be in the early morning hours, and there will still be tornado potential. I would just like about 0.5" of rain.
