Hurricane Season… Is That You?
YouTube video by MyRadar Weather News Hurricane Season… Is That You?

The peak of hurricane season is fast approaching, but the Atlantic is starting to wake up.

We have a Tropical Storm Dexter and two areas of interest to watch, but will any of them threaten land?

🚨 MODERATE RISK (4/5, red) today for parts of South Dakota & Minnesota.

Numerous severe storms likely, with damaging winds over 75 mph, embedded tornadoes & large hail.

A fast-moving squall line may form this evening, possibly a derecho.

Extreme instability (MLCAPE > 6000 J/kg) fuels the threat.

Behold – a lemon in the Gulf.

Fortunately, this won't do anything. It has only a 10% chance of eventual development.

Disruptive changing winds with height, coupled with its swift motion to the west that will soon bring it inland into Texas, are precluding development.

WOW. We did the math.

Dew points are near 80 DEGREES in parts of the mid-Mississippi Valley and Mid-South!

70 is tropical. 75 is borderline rainforest. 80 is EXTREME.

That means every cubic meter of air is holding about an ounce of humidity.

That's enough to fill a typical shot glass!

Heads up in the Midwest and Great Lakes:
A slight risk (2/5, yellow) of severe storms stretches from South Dakota to Upper Michigan.

Strong winds are the main concern, but a tornado or two is possible, especially in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

A single acre of corn can release up to 4,000 gallons of water into the lower atmosphere per day!

That's leading to dew points around 80 degrees.

This will make the sweltering heat feel even worse, leading to heat index values over 100 degree.

Corn sweat is going to be a weather factor!

That said, it’s been meandering closer to land and may not have long over the warm Gulf waters.
