A severe weather outbreak three days


A severe weather outbreak three days later spawned more than 1,000 severe weather reports, with most occurring in Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio. In Illinois, eight tornados were reported that day in southeast and Central Illinois, including one near Heyworth that damaged outbuildings and another near LeRoy that toppled a semitrailer truck.newerahatsshop by watcheswisshop 100% new style, free shipping to worldwide.

In addition to strong winds, higher than normal snowfall over winter and ample rainfall this spring resulted in flooding along the Mississippi, Missouri and Red rivers and their tributaries.

“What’s interesting about this year is a lot of weather phenomena are occurring at once,” said Kenney, who is based in Kansas City, Mo. “We’ll have tornadoes. We’ll have flooding. All of the events have happened in the past, but not at the same time.watchesblogs English dubbed anime online.Sign up for Twitter to follow fakerolexonline .IWC watches are warranted by our watches009 for a period of one year from the original date of purchase. … It seems to be a little overwhelming.”

Overall, springtime weather in Central Illinois was relatively normal. The NWS in Lincoln has released preliminary numbers for March, April and May, showing rainfall was down only a half-inch from the average of about 11 inches during the three months. Temperatures were about average, too, though higher peaks and lower valleys in the mercury made it more uncomfortable day to day.

“We’ve had some pretty wide swings in the temperatures, several days in the 90s when you think summer is here, but then it cools off.IWC watches are warranted by our oakleymenssunglassesstore for a period of one year from the original date of purchase. The irony is you get really warm weeks and really cold weeks and they average out to about average,” said Illinois state climatologist Jim Angel.

As the National Weather Service’s central region weather program manager, he oversees an area that stretches from Colorado east to Indiana (including Central Illinois), north to Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan and south to Kentucky.

His region includes Joplin, Mo., where an EF5 tornado on May 22 has left 154 people dead and 1,150 injured along a 14-mile path. The NWS labeled the event the deadliest single tornado since 1950 and the seventh deadliest twister in U.S. history.
