April

I have been taking weather observations for science, and and I found out that we have had a very warm and sunny April. Wonder what May will bring? This morning I read about the Thompson Flood. Floods are hard to predict sometimes. The reason there were so many deaths was because people in the canyon didn't listen to the warnings. They thought that flood waters rose slowly. They were wrong. The water rose quicker than they thought. The flood waters slam cars against rocks. people that were in their cars had little chance of surviving. Those that survived, climbed up the side of the canyon to be rescued in the morning. Next time there is a flood warning, do what they say, and follow their instructions. You'll be glad you did in the end.

Yazoo Missisipi Tornado

Saturday, April 24 th in the morning, a Tornadic supercell hits tallilulah port. A tornado develops and starts to head towards Yazoo city, thirteen counties away. Suprising, the tornado lasted all the way over to there, destroying about half of the town. The tornado got up to about 3\4 of a mile wide. 10 people so far are dead. So far people think the strongest the tornado got is about an EF4.

Easter

What a busy Easter! We left the house just a little past 9:30am. Dad was dropping us off at the front of St. Anne's church so that he could find a parking spot, and so that we wouldn't have to walk a long way. All of a sudden I heard a big crash and brakes screeching. I turned around and saw two trucks had wrecked into each other. Both cars were making a turn. Luckily nobody was hurt. Just a little shaken.

Spring arrived!!!!

Spring arrived at last! Warm weather means more summer storms. Read the post for lightining safety and tornado safety please! Spring and summer may have some fun and weather dangers.

Have a happy Easter!!!

Global warming and acid rain

Global warming could affect earth. We could have more cloudy days. So you see Global warming can be bad or good. That can also mean more storms, I don't mean little storms, I mean severe storms. We could probably get tornado warnings more often too. Could happen to have more tornado watches too. We can get lots of heat advisories too.Winters would probably mean not as much snow or very wet almost melted snow. Acid rain is a very highly polluted rain. It comes from factories waste and exhauste from cars. This harmful rain can kill plants and animals. We here in KS don't have as high as a chance but we can still get acid rain.

Snow here and in the north-east part of the USA

Things are not going so in the North-Eastern part of the USA. They have reported up to about 2' of snow. The snow here is going to hit North-Eastern part of the state. We should get 4'' - 9'' of snow. Stay Warm.
