Gotta love 955-960MB over an inland area that far south...

Are they naming regular high and low pressure sytems? LOL
Renata? Takashi?
I also saw TS Vince on there from 2004.

It is FU-Berlin in Germany what gives these names.
P.S. Vince was in 2005.

Even I am not a fan of winter, this was the most spectacular winter event (read also as unbelievable weather map) in my life...back in Dec 1996.
Hope ya know where Slovenia is
D )...we got 0°F at 850hPa level with extreme pressure gradient over the Adriatic sea coast... experienced Tmin/Tmax between 5°F/14°F for two days with Bora winds gusting 90-110mph! Bora was blowing above 120mph more south in Croatia coast...imagine windchill! Man, that was freakin' cold!
This one (http://www.wetterzentrale.de/archive/ra/1987/Rrea00119870112.gif) might be ever more spectacular, but I don't remember it...was too young.

That was the date of the worst blizzard in the history of Ohio. There were wind gusts to over 100mph, snow drifts to the roofs of houses, over a foot of snow, and unfortunately more than 50 fatalities.

In Europe, FU-Berlin names all cyclones to make it easier for tracking.

Look at the above surface chart first and try to guess
where the F4 wedge (according to Grazulis) struck. Click on the link below to see the correct answer.

Holy cow...what a tremendous setup on that one Bobby 
!! I can only imagine the Craven Sig Severe on that day. No wonder about this one. Jon Finch has done an awesome job with organizing these case studies btw.

Good god. I bet it felt pretty muggy in OKC on that day. I thought it was a joke because of the "try to guess where the F4 wedge struck". I didn't think it would be the obvious triple point target. That's what I get for thinking too hard.

Wow... it's a wonder that a violent tornado occurred that day given that MLCAPE was more than likely on the marginal side.
