What are the predictors for a tornado?

Here it’s sever thunderstorm (high wind, hail, heavy rain, cumulonimbus clouds with those anvil tops), with the presence of rotation in the clouds, and a cross wind which ‘tips’ the rotating cloud over to create the classic tornado.

We also have lake breeze convergence here with hot land sucking in cold air (hot air rises) from Lake Ontario Lake Erie and Georgian Bay and Lake Huron. The breezes converge and start to swirl and rotate, these create vicious storms, and tornadoes.

Los Angeles at high risk of flooding as rain drenches areas ravaged by January wildfires​

​

Los Angeles locals are preparing for a "high risk" of flooding and landslides following the deadly fires that ripped through the county last month.

Forecasters said a huge rainstorm could see as much as 150 millimetres fall across parts of southern California on Thursday, local time.

The bulk of the county is under flash flooding watch with areas affected by the scars of the blaze — which killed at least 29 people — at greater risk of landslides.

Hillside areas such as Pacific Palisades, home to Hollywood stars including Tom Hanks and Jennifer Lopez, are at greater risk due to the soil being softer and drier after the fires.

The National Weather Service (NWS) said anyone living near such hillsides should be ready to leave their homes.

The afternoon and evening has been deemed the most dangerous time for flooding and landslides.

"There's a high risk for flooding, especially in and around the road areas and urban areas, as well as an appreciable risk for debris flows," NWS meteorologist Ryan Kittell said.

Workers in Los Angeles have gathered thousands of sandbags and concrete barriers in recent weeks to try to limit loose soil.

The incoming storm is being driven by an "atmospheric river," a giant corridor of rain that brings billions of litres of moisture from the Pacific Ocean.

While the immediate flood worries are sparking concerns, southern California badly needs the rain after near none in eight months.

That atmospheric river is bringing snow instead of rain to our British Columbia coast. They have and attic outflow happening - cold Arctic air is being funnelled to the coast, colliding with the atmospheric river. Snow that makes my snow look like nothing!

20:00hrs, still under snow squall and blowing snow advisory.

-6C (22F) and last I look outside it was clear.

Supposed to get 10 - 20cm more of snow. Ugh.

My lovely niece dropped by with her work truck and plowed the driveway and up to the barn, she buried her truck in 3 feet of snow so I had to get Ol Blue out and haul her out. We women know our way around equipment here .

Have a lovely evening/night/day everyone!
