Trump compared California to Finland. Because they BOTH HAVE FUCKING TREES. JFC. Finland is cold, has short, rainy summers, and steady precipitation throughout the year. California is FUCKING CALIFORNIA. Christ, I cannot believe what a dipshit this guy is. Unfuckingbelievable.

If Northern California had received anywhere near the typical amount of autumn precipitation this year (around 4-5 in. of rain near #CampFire point of origin), explosive fire behavior & stunning tragedy in #Paradise would almost certainly not have occurred. (1/n) #CAfire #CAwx

Why am I 30 years old and I just now learned that the percentage for the precipitation on a weather forecast is not the CHANCE of it raining/snowing but the percentage of the AREA actually getting rain/snow/etc? Like 50% of my town will get snow, not 50% on whether it happens

MIXED PRECIPITATION

April was warmer than normal at Milwaukee. It was tied for the 8th warmest April on record. Precipitation was near normal with below normal snowfall. #swiwx #wiwx

Scattered precipitation possible later in the evening and tomorrow

'The UAE has been leading the effort to seed clouds and increase precipitation.'

It's no secret that the UAE has been experimenting with cloud seeding in an effort to increase rainfall, as detailed in this Reuters segment from 2022.

Do you think this might possibly have

Extremely low precipitation storm in Kansas right now, and it is rotating pretty strong. A tornado is possible!

Finally got around to joining CoCoRaHS ! Precipitation amounts tend to be highly spatially variable, so every extra observation counts. An excellent example of when citizen science can really make a difference.

Lincoln's April 2024 data are now archived. April 2024 was warmer than normal & wetter than normal. Tied a record high, 89°F, April 13 and there was a daily precipitation record 1.29' on April 26. April 2024 Data: lincolnweather.unl.edu/april-2024-lin…, May 2024 data: lincolnweather.unl.edu/may-2024-linco…

That’s my kinda of precipitation 😭

In the mountains of #alpeadria the dusty mud is outcropping again from the melting layer of new snow after the cold late-April phase.

In the next days new precipitation will bring some new snow but hardly below 2000 m.

I have to appreciate this beautiful tornado and storm near Lincoln, NE on Friday. I've been waiting a long time for a low precipitation type mode that exposes all the storm mechanics pre and during tornadogenesis. This storm did it! Career catch here! #wxtwitter #NEwx

Check out this CoCoRaHS map showing precipitation totals for the month of April! There was a sharp gradient in precipitation totals across northern Indiana, with over 3 inches difference between Fort Wayne and South Bend (only 90 miles apart)!

🚨 BREAKING - MOSCOW- According to weather forecasters, a thunderstorm with wind gusts of up to 15 meters per second is expected in the city in the coming hours. In total, 30% of the monthly precipitation will fall in one day.
