Lots of Sun After the Storm BAB
WoW.. We just had a major squall line cross over our area. The weather has been crap all day. Multiple tornados. The Sun-n-Fun Fly-In cancelled the air show yesterday because of the weather. Today is much worse. There are reports of people trapped in a tent/hanger at the airport.(kinda sketchy so far) We just had gusts of 75 mph rip thru the lumber yard. Something tells me the flight line at the Fly -In is a mess. Most of those Experimental Aircraft are on the light side and some take flight long before 75 mph. The rain came down so hard here the visability was about 30 feet and dark as night with a tinge of aqua blue in the sky. Wind driven rain went clear through our 80' long building. It even moved the Wellcraft about 20 ft and it was partially protected from the wind. Lightning strikes that I could see were more than one per second nonstop for about 10 minutes. It came up quick, I believe the line is moving at about 40MPH.
