8/26/04 NOW: Plains, Midwest

[Bob Schafer]

Check out the flanking line near Carroll on radar right now.

[edit1:] Also, echo top has now exceeded 60K ft on the "Clarinda" storm.

[edit2:] At 9:34pm, CDT, I'm surprised there has been no t-warning on the storm west of Maryville MO. NWS probably has spotter reports.......?

Also, from 2330Z, 3W College Springs:
1 HOME DESTROYED. NUMEROUS OUTBUILDINGS DESTROYED. WIDESPREAD CROP DAMAGE. NO INJURIES TO HUMANS OR LIVESTOCK REPORTED. TIME ESTIMATED. (OAX)

A blue box has just been issued east of the previous watch, including Michigan.

Storms are redeveloping and if you take a look at the GRR radar, you can see some potent storms are now popping up.
