It's looking more like a Monday evening through to Tuesday morning type of event... which isn't a bad thing. <br /><br />Dynamics are expected to be very strong tomorrow so some severe storms will be possible in southwestern and south-central Manitoba as well as southern Saskatchewan. Some of what forms there could move into the RRV and Winnipeg either Monday evening or Tuesday in the overnight hours. jjcwpghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03353008394397372445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071575595521727141.post-45362364521551093252013-07-07T12:58:51.085-05:002013-07-07T12:58:51.085-05:00i voted that!

You can also say EC's forecast is way off with the mainly cloudy forecast much like Thursday. I think it's time that we forecast conditions that occur here not the ones that don't. For an area that hardly sees thunderstorms they are sure forecasted quite frequently. Really hard to explain this lack of thunderstorm pattern since 2011. Very odd and it sucks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071575595521727141.post-73519224227181867702013-07-06T15:08:35.754-05:002013-07-06T15:08:35.754-05:00Oops, meant to say last couple of years.

(Squall lines and bow echos are just some of the types of MCS's that exist). They usually last for several hours and around this part of the world they are often nocturnal. MCS's can bring flooding rains, large hail, damaging winds and frequent lightning. In non-severe cases, they will usually bring lots of rain and sometimes frequent lightning.<br /><br />The June 25-26 event 2 weeks ago was an example of an MCS and I believe it was a squall line.jjcwpghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03353008394397372445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071575595521727141.post-69044363315870663702013-07-06T14:08:38.247-05:002013-07-06T14:08:38.247-05:00Nice blog you got there. my name is also Mike!Nice blog you got there. my name is also Mike!Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071575595521727141.post-15865148270024699522013-07-06T13:54:45.791-05:002013-07-06T13:54:45.791-05:00Awesome!!!
