@KrissyKat Wow, yeah, I was just going to post something about it! Pretty intense. I hope you're safe and prepared, as well as everyone else in western IN.
For me, I'm a little more worried about the line of storms developing/tracking from the southwest.
Isolated, marginally severe hail is possible late tonight from eastern Nebraska across much of Iowa. WeatherAwareDay #weather #wx #SPC #TheOutPost #SevereWeather

really serious weather tearing through a lot of the Southern US in the past few days has left a trail of destruction and killed some folks.
the saracstic side of me wants to also type that this feels like a fabulous time to dismantle our crtical weather infrastructure!!

Yay! Nadocast is up and running again. (Brian, the guy who runs the server which generates the forecasts, apparently was able to haul a monitor to whatever basement he has his machine running in, and rebooted it).

Sporadic damaging wind swaths and a few tornadoes will be the primary threats this morning through dusk across a broad portion of the East. WeatherAwareDay #weather #wx #SPC #TheOutPost #SevereWeather
A fairly horrible wildfire is raging about an hour west of here , just north of Fredericksburg TX. Can smell mondo smoke, and the clouds over the mare paddock are a worrisome shade of brown. With these 40 mph winds, 15% humidity, and fire alerts constantly dinging our phones, we’re on pins and needles here at the farm. #txwx #wx #TexasFires
There is a tornado watch for parts of Central Illinois and West Central Indiana. Tornado Watch 37.
May I coin the term, "thundermud"?
Due to clouds, rain & snow, we likely won't see much of the total lunar eclipse in Montana and Wyoming overnight (~12:30 to ~1:30). Instead, here is a delicious-looking Oreo cookie eclipse!

SYNOPSIS:
Satellite and radar imagery show scattered showers across western Washington this morning, with the cold front situated offshore and the low pressure center just off central Vancouver Island
This low will continue to work its way northeast into British Columbia, as such, it will slowly drag the cold front onshore
Rain will continue into tonight, devolving into scattered showers late tonight into Thursday morning. Showers will continue throughout the day on Thursday

Fortunately not all NOAA websites are down so I was able to update my chart of Raleigh daily temperature for 2024 vs normal values.
Nadocast bots are down, not because of any issues here, but the author of the software (Brian) says the server that generates the Nadocast forecast crashed, and he has to go drive over there and hook up a monitor and figure out what happened. (Apparently it's in someone's basement or something to save him cloud hosting costs 
Per article:
" The modeling center runs the computer models used in day-to-day weather forecasting, and ensures that weather data correctly goes into these models and that they are operating correctly.
The lease cancellation was first reported by The Verge. The National Weather Service didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
The NOAA employee told Axios the cancellations — along with recent layoffs, early retirements, and travel and hiring limitations — point to an effort to dismantle the agency."
Axios: DOGE moves to cancel NOAA leases on key weather buildings
"...two pivotal centers for weather forecasting will soon have their leases canceled, sources told Axios.
Why it matters: One of the buildings is the nerve center for generating national weather forecasts. ..."

My Saturday workout paused when I saw four deer trotting up the street enjoying today's mild Montana weather. They needed to obey traffic lights and use the crosswalks better, though.
This is the Forecast Discussion from KSEA / Seattle WA NWS at Saturday 03/01/2025 06:46:19 PST
SYNOPSIS:
Satellite imagery shows stratus over the offshore waters as well as areas of fog developing in the river valleys. This fog will once again be quite shallow and should burn away quickly this morning.
High temperatures will be notably cooler on the coast where mostly cloudy conditions prevail all day--in the low to mid 50s. Elsewhere, conditions will be fairly similar to yesterday, with highs in the upper 50s to low 60s. Mid to upper 60s may be possible in the Cascade valleys
Rain showers will arrive along the coast this afternoon, slowly spreading inland overnight and continuing into Sunday and early Monday. Total rainfall amounts will be on on the order of one to two tenths of an inch through most of the lowlands, with up to half an inch possible in the mountains and along the Pacific coast
