We’re getting out first strong post-tornado storm right now. Doppler shows some rotation near Mason City as of 12:35. Thankfully that’s far enough north, so the SPI doesn’t have to worry about it.
UPDATE 12:38: This is a weird storm. It’s windy as frig… yikes, my garbage can just blew down. Wonderful. Anyway, it’s windy and rainy but there’s been no lightning. Kooky.
UPDATE 12:47: There’s the first lightning flash… and, ah yes… there’s the thunder.
UPDATE 1:11: My goodness… it’s really windy and rainy now. My roof was kinda messed up from those tornadoes. Hope all this rain doesn’t wreak new havoc.
UPDATE 1:25: And just like that, it’s over… or is it? Looks like SPI might just be in a brief lull. “Current” conditions are as of 11:54 pm Thursday for some reason.
