T-Storms in January! Rough Wx in store for the 29th!

Here it is, not even February 2013, and already the alarms for ‘spring-type storms’ are sounding! Seems to me this global warming thing may really be kicking in!

Jan 29 mid morning!

The National Weather Service is using terms like ‘hail the size of quarters, and ‘damaging winds’ with even a mention of a tornado or two, as part of a forecast for Tuesday, January the 29^th. Interestingly, there is also now the possibility of ‘heavy rain’ in that same forecast. An even, if it comes true, that would be very welcome down here in southwest Missouri!

Credit the coming together of all the factors that make for rough weather; a positively tilted frontal system combined with the confluence of cold, warm and dry air and you have the ingredients for some great action this coming Tuesday morning!
