Stealth thunderstorms invade area under the radar perhaps?
Thunder has been rumbling outside for a good 30 minutes so when I got back to the computer and pulled up my favorite local weather radar (4WarnLive Doppler @ KBTV-Channel 4), I found the above picture. As you can tell, it shows a shower near Houston but no action near where I live to the east in Beaumont. I checked the KFDM-Channel 6 radar and found that we are figuratively swimming in thunderstorms in the area.
I don’t know why I’m not seeing the storms on 4WarnLive, perhaps lightning struck their apparatus or something. An any event, I hope that they get their radar back up and functioning properly soon because KBTV has the best online radar in the area. And I’m not saying that because someone there seems to regularly check my blog, according to my StatCounter information. You don’t think I’d be that much of a kiss up do you? Okay, don’t answer that.
