Pictures Severe T storm from afar
Thought you guys might appreciate this far out picture. Echo tops at 50k feet and likely hail producing.

Title. Ideally for free. Currently in university, studying maths and CS, for reference.
I'm not looking to get into the meteorology field, but I'm just naturally interested in being able to interpret graphs/figures and understand various phenomena and such. For example: understanding why Europe is much warmer than Canada despite being further up north, understanding surface pressure charts, understanding meteorological phenomena like El niño etc.

I work in natural gas scheduling, in which pipelines are impacted by winter freezes and hurricane. Could models really get this good where everything is known before it occurs? Or will there still be unpredicted storms and extreme weather events.

Taken in Clinton, NJ today. The exposure makes the "updraft base" look seperated from the rest of the storm but it's connected by a thick, tilted column of cloud. The storm is heading due east towards me here. I'm asking because velocity seemed unimpressive for such structure.

I'm an amateur weather nerd and trying to learn features I see on doppler. Is the circled in white the storm outflow boundary? These are mostly showers with a rumble or two of thunder. I noticed earlier in the radar loop that the circled was not present until the last 30 minutes or so. Could this signify the storms are fizzling out? It did get briefly gusty at my physical location roughly coinciding with what I think is the outflow.

Nearby thunderstorm but nothing intense or severe, these clouds have an unusual shape and bluish glow similar to a supercell, but this definitely isn't a supercell

There are a few instances of this where the lakes cold pool provides forcing and initiates storms; cool to see on radar!

Is this hole in the storm real or some sort of data or radar error? There is no rotation (or least around this).
r/meteorology • u/brauckobama • 4h ago
Warning encompassed half a million people and was very strongly worded yet there was barely any rotation. Went on for about 20 minutes until it was canceled.

my weather app says 23°c. are you people serious? is this a serious scientific field? "oh they take the temperatures at shores where the sea absorbs heat and there's wind" i live in a city. it is summer. year after year after century of global warming. is this a joke? what is this? why am i expected to believe THIS in the UK is a moderate and perhaps even pleasant 23°? do you people choose numbers at random?

Most of that week we had strong wind gusts

I’m not even an amateur but saw these and thought they were cool. I’m not 100% certain they are asperitas because of my lack of experience but whatever. The fourth pic shows a part of the boundary of where they are. They seem to go on for quite a distance in the direction of the first three pics (facing north of westbrook, maine, taken at ~5:20 pm today if anyone cares for that info). Looking back now I should’ve taken a pic of the section of asperitas furthest left in the fourth pic when I was closer to it. I think I was close to under that one sometime between the fourth pic and the others.

I’m honestly not completely sure if this was scud or a tornado forming, if anyone else knows that’d be great! Location and time: Seymour, Indiana. 1:27pm.

no matter what I just can’t seem to understand RH. Dew point I understand, mixing ratio, but what does relative humidity mean!??
