Do You Get A Lot of Tornado Warnings? Think Again…

An incredibly interesting map, I think. Several counties along the Palmer Divide in Colorado, along with a batch of counties in the South, get far more warnings than any Kansas county…at least when you count it by minutes.

Gove county (third one down from Nebraska, third one in from Colorado) appears to me to have the darkest red in the state.

Chasers looking for the “easy target”: US-54 from Dodge City to Eureka, or US-166 from the west Harper county line to the east Cowley county line.

20140408-145058.jpgAs for “a lot” of tornado warnings? When 4 hours a YEAR is the highest value in the legend, I’d say no one in the US — the most tornado-prone country on the planet — spends a “lot” of time in a warning. There’s a bit of mental bias going on here because the warnings are clustered in a few months of the year for most of the country.

I’m lovin’ me some statistics, seein’ as how there aren’t any storms to speak of….

I've chased storms and reported on the weather in some form now for almost 40 years. My first severe weather coverage was in the summer of 1981 on an FM station in Pratt, KS. I worked for KFDI News, including many hours in the Mobile Units during storm season, for six years. I went to KWCH12 as their storm chase coordinator for the 2003 and 2004 seasons. Then I went into business for myself and have been chasing actively since 2005. 2020 brings some new things to the site, but at the core I still am driven to connect my understanding of weather and safety to you, giving accurate and timely information the best ways I can with the tools available. I'm gratified to have you along for the ride!
