The meteorology community does not really understand how bad things are going to get. And frankly, neither do I. science.org/content/articl…

High based convection across northern Utah this afternoon with some midlevel moisture moving in. DCAPE is not especially high, so not looking at a widespread/major dry microburst threat, but definitely could see some gusty outflow winds under any showers today. #utwx

Super scary stuff… thoughts and prayers for all my FSU friends and the Tallahassee community 😢

A popular area on FSU campus, all that’s left on Landis Green are personal belongings - shoes, laptops, half finished meals.

Evening thunderstorms rolling off the Oquirrhs #utwx

What a #sunset this evening through the rain! #utwx

Ending a day filled with widespread 60-70+ mph dry microburst gusts from weak showers with little to no lightning. Never discount the inverted-v sounding! #utwx

Accumulating hail in Springville! #utwx ⁦NWS Salt Lake City⁩

Another round of gusty showers and a few thunderstorms moving into the Wasatch Front this evening #utwx

Convection over Morgan/Summit counties this evening #utwx

#Sunset into the dust as the cold front approaches… #utwx

South SL valley storm seen from Bountiful #utwx

Hint of a shelf cloud with line of storms moving into the Wasatch Front this afternoon #utwx #monsoon

At least 1/2 inch hail in Bountiful, maybe dime to penny size when they first fell #utwx ⁦⁦NWS Salt Lake City⁩

Post-storm #sunset. Note grass fire in Farmington Bay wetlands, likely started by lightning from earlier severe storm #utwx

Looks like a new smoke plume coming from South Mountain/Rush Valley vicinity south of Tooele. #utwx ⁦NWS Salt Lake City⁩

For those who don’t know, meteorologists can be called in for overtime on their off days. Just because an office was fully staffed during an event does not mean that office is fully staffed as a whole

Looks like we just had a small heat burst at KSLC this evening. Temp rose 6°F and dewpoint dropped 10°F in a 5 minute span along with an increase in winds, before returning to previous levels #utwx
