Follow Up Severe Weather
Posted: 11 Oct 2013 05:39 AM
A week ago Friday severe weather visited the state, including a
recently rated EF-4 strength tornado near Correctionville. This event
was the first severe weather warnings in 10 days prior. The featured
chart looks at the frequency of follow up severe weather events after
an event that was the first in ten plus days. The chart attempts to
answer the question of how frequent are days with severe weather after
an initial day that ended a recent drought of it. The data is
partitioned by three periods of the year. Frequencies are higher
during the summer season as severe weather is more common. There is
some hint at an elevated frequency 5-7 days after the event, but
nothing significant. The severe weather expected today will mostly
miss us to our northwest.
