5/30- Some storms today

Good Friday all- HAPPY WEEKEND!

But don't expect today to be totally dry- some thunderstorms are likely later this afternoon, some of which could be borderline severe and contain small hail. Despite this, temps will be just fine today- mid 60s to low 70s. Not much else is going to happen over the weekend though- sure there will be scattered storms tomorrow afternoon, but the rest looks very pleasant though Sunday is definitely the better of the two days. The storm next week no longer appears to be of tropical origin, but I still think quite the soaker is coming next Friday or so. Finally, I would be remiss to not say congratulations to the 2014 NHL Eastern Conference Champion NY Rangers- bring home the cup!


In the Pacific- Amanda dissipated yesterday into a remnant low, but a new area of interest could develop off the Mexican coast this weekend, which has a 50-50 chance of becoming Tropical Storm Boris in the next 5 days.

Today in weather history- May 30, 1948- Vanport, Oregon becomes a ghost town after a dike along the Columbia River breaks and floods the entire city without warning in two hours, drowning 25 people
