    Net Zero means we are paying for the destruction of our economy and society in pursuit of an unachievable and pointless policy.

    Over that neck of the woods tomorrow for the most of next week. Looks like I missed the action by a few days.

    Moderate risk of severe thunderstorms in Oklahoma in a few days time so you might get to see something

    Check out the hail drifts in this video, shot on Wed 11th near Amarillo TX.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nr8AvdkKHO0

    Video shows flash flood (note the signs of cold meltwater shown by low scudding clouds forming over the river) but you'll see the hail drifts covered in dirt closer to the end of the short video. Have seen other views of this where a guy is standing near a hail drift apparently 4-5 feet deep.

    According to WikiPedia, the High Risk issued for Day 2 by the SPC is only the second in history!!!

    It's time to get worried about tomorrow in the Plains.

    I was just thinking when I saw the moderate risk last night that I'd never seen a high risk.
    Possibility that it could affect Oklahoma City and Wichita, Kansas. Let's hope the major storms stay over rural areas.
