The blog has been down - wrt to new posts - for about a day and a half and has just come back to life this morning - Friday the 13th! So, I've got a couple of posts that have been malingering.

Mike Hardiman alerted me to the MCS that developed around 3 am yesterday morning (Thursday 12 May 2011) northwest of Del Rio, Texas. Mike sent along the top image, which shows IR satellite imagery with surface plot and lightning strikes at about 1130 UTC on the 13th. The second image shows nearly concurrent radar image from Del Rio. The bottom two IR images show the system progressing eastward at 2130 UTC and 0215 UTC on the 14th. Very nice MCS that initiated at an unusual time of the morning. It produced some severe storms across south Texas before it headed out to sea. Will examine the model forecasts next.
