Good morning, everyone. It is Sunday, April 24, very early Sunday morning, you've had quite interesting weather that's taking place over this country over the past couple of days. We're going to focus on North Platte, Nebraska over the past couple of days. Let's go back to Friday. High temperature in North Platte, Nebraska says the National Weather Service was a sizzling 97 degrees. That's something absolutely amazing. We also had a relative humidity really low at that time. But the winds were very high. If you look at the National Weather Service, the climatological data that will show that the heat index was only 91 degrees. That's because of the very low relative humidity the very low dew points to temperatures in the upper 40s. However, there is one very important thing to point out over here is that the winds were 31 miles per hour out of the south, that's the sustained winds for 31 miles per hour from the south, it's the 31, the 31 mile power that's very significant here, and that that changes everything, the heat index would have been lower than the temperature as the National Weather Service says based upon the humidity alone. The heat and humidity, the heat index chart is based upon winds assuming the winds are 5.6 miles per hour approximately. So if you were to have that you were to have light winds in North Point in Nebraska on Friday, the temperature would have actually felt like 91 degrees. And that's talking about at a time, that's a time when it was 96 degrees. So when it was 97, let's say the heat index probably was 92 degrees. But there's something else that's not well known. And that's when the winds are really strong, and the temperatures are 95 degrees or higher. The winds will actually make it feel hotter than what it actually is, unless the relative humidity is really high. Or we should say the humidity is really high. If the humidity isn't 100%, the winds will still make it feel cooler, winds ordinarily make it feel cooler, the winter still make you feel cooler, if the relative humidity is really high. It's really complex, because the heat index is going to be way up there, because the relative humidity is really high or you should say the humidity, but the winds are actually going to make that heat index lower than what it would have been. But in a situation when it's dry when the relative humidity is under 40%. Which in North Platte, Nebraska, it was probably around 20% a 30 mile per hour wind is actually going to make it feel hotter outside. Let's go ahead and say for now the temperature probably felt about what it was 97 degrees, maybe it's like 98 degrees. It certainly felt one or two degrees warmer than what the heat index is being reported from the National Weather Service. That heat index again is based upon the heat and humidity. The question is, was it one or two degrees warmer than the temperature or was a one or two degrees warmer than the heat index, that heat index would have been 92 degrees that would have made the new heat index or the real field temperature 94 degrees or was viewfield temperature 98 degrees or 99 degrees that's something that is needs to be looked into currently in North Dakota right now we have a blizzard warning in effect, there's heavy snow that's falling all over the place. We also have an ice storm taking place in that part of the region. This is phenomenal stuff that's going on. The closed LO is filling in therefore the conveyor belt of moisture feeding into the storm system is being caught off right now. However there still is plenty of moisture on the backside of the storm system reports the National Weather Service so the precipitation rates will remain heavy for the remainder of the night through at least mid morning. Snowfall accumulations are going to be way up there for many locations. There's already been a foot of snow in some areas as a 930 This evening earlier this evening. Another 10 to 15 inches is forecasted by mid morning in the...

Good morning, everyone. It is April 21. Thursday. Yeah, Thursday morning. And we have something phenomenal which will be taking place over the next couple of days and I'm not referring to the storm system developing often the Dakotas are actually developing just to the west of that pushing into South Dakota, which will be likely bringing perhaps a snow storm up six to 12 inches for the second half of the weekend. A rain or ice storm, perhaps flooding as well for the first half of the weekend. We're not referring to that, referring to the dew points to the humidity. Take a look at Nebraska for tomorrow we have the dry line which is situated somewhere in Nebraska from the eastern part of the state to the western part of the state. You have the dry line in between. We have dew points in North Platte, Nebraska, going down into the low to mid 20s for tomorrow afternoon. But dew points in the east part in Nebraska in the low to mid 60s, low 60s, perhaps mid 60s. So you wonder how could temperatures in North Platte Nebraska get into the 90s? Well, that's why the air is so dry, the sun is super efficient and heating things up. In eastern Nebraska, we also might see temperatures very close to 90. What's going on in eastern Nebraska is a lot more impressive. Really, once you look at the dew point, it's a lot more impressive than what's going on in western Nebraska. You have dew points in the low 60s. And still temperatures are forecast to make it very close to 90 degrees. Even though dew points are 40 degrees higher in eastern Nebraska. That's something really phenomenal. You know, if you look at let's take a city in the summertime like St. Louis, Missouri, and you look at the days when it hit that say 104 degrees such as August 17, back in 2003, or 2004, I believe. You take a look at that and you'll see 2003 2003 Let's say you take a look at that. And you'll see how temperature the dew point temperatures were in the 60s in the morning, temperatures were whatever they were. And right before as the temperatures were going way up to 104. The dew points were dropping quickly, probably about one or two degrees per every degree Fahrenheit went up. So perhaps even two degrees. So you have it's very significant. Dew point is a form of energy just like temperature, so the dew point drops, all that energy gets transferred into the temperature, the temperature goes up so you have a 40 degree difference in dew point, you would think there would be an enormous difference in temperature as well. You would think it would be something like what happens in Texas, Houston, Texas, you'll have highs in the mid 90s Rio Grande village, Texas you have a high about 110 degrees. Sometimes even hotter, you have a 15 degree difference between the two cities. One city is getting blasted with humidity off the Gulf of Mexico and talk about being blessed with humidity. The real city that gets blasted with humidity is Galveston, Texas and Corpus Christi, Texas, when it gets humid, those are really the most though the humidity in those places is really top notch in this country even higher than South Florida on the weather map tomorrow. Even in Florida dew points are only going to be around 60 degrees, that until you enter the Miami area, then you start to approach 70 degrees. If you look at the Midwest, it's not just eastern Nebraska, the whole Midwest, even Louisiana, two points in the low 60s, low 60s. That's what it shows on the windy.com European computer model, whatever version of European computer model that is, that's what it shows for the dew points for tomorrow, that thing tends to be pretty accurate. That's what I've noticed. So you have the dew points down there, right around 60 degrees. I don't know why they're so low, perhaps the water temperatures just haven't heated up yet. Or maybe the wind flow is not really off the Gulf yet, although they it will be so but in any case, you have dew points in the low 60s by the Gulf states those...

Good morning everyone. It is Thursday morning April 21. And an update on the storm system that's going to be affecting North Dakota over the weekend we have two to three waves of precipitation that's going to be moving through. The first one comes in tonight, which would be generally light frozen precipitation for Northern locations, Southern locations, probably some light rain, maybe also some frozen precipitation then we have some light drizzle that moves through for the rest of the day. That one doesn't really count for an area of precipitation. Or at least that's not what I was referring to. Then we have two bands to different waves of precipitation that move through each one potentially if it would fall as snow each one would be six to 12 inches. However the first one is not expected to fall as snow. The first one is either going to be a rain or freezing rain situation. So there's a potential ice storm which would have great impacts for North Dakota on Shabbos on Saturday, we also have a severe weather outbreak possible Friday night as well for South Central North Dakota and also South Dakota. The primary threat is large hail, there also could be a tornado or two especially in South Dakota. Precipitation that changes over to snow. By Saturday evening by shavitz evening. Spedition rates could be heavy winds are going to be strong. Winds will come strong Saturday night. The winds become strong when this transition to snow takes place. And the chances are six to 12 inches sounds like a very reasonable forecast. Considering you're on the backside of a system that's producing around two inches of rain. So the first half the first inch of rain is not falling and snow. But you figure the second half you get another inch which produces six to 12 inches of snow blizzard or near blizzard conditions expected for Saturday night. This is a major impact event should an ice storm develop on Saturday. The strong winds significantly add to the severity of the impact Saturday night as ice accumulates on trees and power lines. Elsewhere in the Midwest, we have a really warm air that's making its way into the Midwest. Tomorrow we're going to see temperatures in the 80s for the southern Midwest and for the Western Midwest. In fact, even South Dakota temperatures going into the 80s perhaps even low 90s for some locations especially in Nebraska. And then on Shabbos that warm air moves east was north and east affecting Minneapolis, Minnesota, Chicago, Illinois, South Bend Indiana St. Louis will already be under the warm air for from Friday onward. That warmer heads East affecting the east coast by Sunday bringing temperatures well into the 80s perhaps even 90 degrees for Virginia 80s from Washington DC and Baltimore 70s or 80s depending on where they are in regard to the sea breeze where that sea breeze is. I wish everyone a good granteth Have a good weekend. Thank you for listening
