01 0000PST 0 0 Drought 30 The long term drought continued through November. Widespread precipitation returned to the area with several events, but reservoirs across the area continued to drop well below normal levels. All major reservoirs across the state were 30% or less of capacity. Folsom Lake was down to 14% of capacity, breaking the all-time record low set in 1977. Lake Oroville came close to a record low, but did not reach it. Extreme drought continued to be detected by the U.S. Drought Monitor across most the region, with exceptional drought for the northern San Joaquin Valley, the central and southern Sacramento Valley, the Burney Basin and the Sierra. Governor Jerry Brown declared a drought emergency for the entire state of California January 17, 2014 and this continued to be in effect. He extended the executive order requiring Californians to continue conserving water through October 2016 if drought conditions remain in January 2016. Local Emergency Proclamations have been issued for El Dorado, Glenn, Lake, Plumas, San Joaquin, Shasta, Sutter, Tuolumne, and Yuba counties. The cities of Live Oak Lodi, and Ripon continue in a drought emergency. Drought task forces have been established in Butte, Lake, Nevada, Placer, Plumas, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Sutter, Tehama, Tuolumne, and Yolo counties to coordinate response to the drought. Mandatory water reductions of 25 percent as ordered by Governor Brown continued to be in effect statewide, the first time such mandatory restrictions have been enacted. The state continued to supply food assistance to those impacted by the drought, along with California Disaster Assistance Act money for those who have lost drinking water due to dry wells. Nonprofit organizations in the San Joaquin Valley struggled to meet the needs of their clients for drought-related programs. Drought stressed and killed many trees in Californias forests, with as much as 20 percent of the states forests, or about 120 million trees, potentially dying from drought stress. An earlier survey by the Forest Service revealed an estimated 12.5 million dead trees in the states central and southern forests. Low runoff in streams and rivers continued to cause adverse affects on fish and other wildlife. This includes the endangered Delta Smelt and winter run Chinook Salmon. The Chinook Salmon lost an estimate 95 percent of hatchlings on the Sacramento River due to the effects of the drought, and may be in danger of extinction. This is also impacting the California salmon fishing industry, which produces an estimated $1.4 billion annually.

The California drought continues in full force during the month of November, 2015. Fresno received 1.74 inch of rainfall while Bakersfield only received 0.61 of precipitation during the month of November. The majority of this rainfall occurred in two events, one of which was fairly uniform across the area. Even with these rainfall amount there has been little response in water storage across Central California. The U.S. Drought Monitor continued to report exceptional drought conditions across the entire Central California region. This extent of exceptional drought is extremely unusual for California. The general trend of below normal precipitation and above normal temperatures has continued this year. There continues to be significant media coverage on the on-going drought conditions. These reports include discussion of significant re-allocation of water resources from the east to west side of the San Joaquin Valley, farmers forgoing planting of some crops, a decrease in the snow-related tourism activity in the Southern Sierra Nevada, reduction in air quality due to persistent stagnant air, loss or reduction of ground water, wells drying up in several communities leaving them with no water, and an unprecedented increase in fire danger across the Southern Sierra Nevada and Tehachapi Mountains.

News media reports flooding near Federal Blvd. and San Miguel Ave in Lemon Grove, with debris also covering the road. Two blocks were impassable with water up to the doors of vehicles on College Ave. off of State Route 94. Pacific Highway was closed from Juniper to Laurel Streets due to flooding. San Diego County officials reported that Quarry Dip Road was closed between Lakeview Road and State Route 125 in Spring Valley due to flooding.

A deep trough developed just off the West Coast on the 2nd and swung through California on the 3rd and 4th, bringing cold, unstable air to southern California with thunderstorms and record rainfall for San Diego. Lindbergh Field recorded a one-day total of 1.09 inches on the 3rd, setting a daily rainfall record. Elsewhere, amounts varied widely with coast and valley locations recording 2-day totals of one-tenth to almost an inch and a half (highest amounts in southern San Diego County). The heavy rain resulted in urban flooding in Spring Valley and Lemon Grove with water up to the doors of some vehicles and several roads closed. Orange County and the Inland Empire received around one-tenth of an inch to one-half of an inch of rain with no flooding. Thunderstorms resulted in several reports of hail one-quarter inch in diameter near Dana Point and in southern San Diego County, but no damage. Strong, gusty west winds also accompanied this event on the 2nd with several gusts in the mountains and desert slopes around 60-65 mph. No wind damage was reported.

An upper-level trough developed along the West Coast, deepening into a strong low over southern California on the 16th, bringing scattered light rain/snow showers. A couple thunderstorms produced one-quarter inch sized hail near Lake Arrowhead (accumulated to around a half-inch depth) and Running Springs in the San Bernardino mountains. Rainfall totals were mostly one-third of an inch or less, with up to one-half of an inch in the mountains, again, highest amounts in San Diego County. The snow level was around 5500 to 6000 feet, with enough moisture to produce around 4 inches of snow in the Big Bear area, with a rain/melted snow total of 1.5 inches. No flooding reported. This system did produce strong and gusty westerly winds with several trees down in San Diego County and power poles down in Orange County, resulting in power outages for several thousand customers. The strong winds brought a large swell and high surf to the Orange and San Diego County coasts as well. The coastal waters experienced low-end force winds during this event, with the San Clemente Basin buoy reporting winds gusting from 35 to 41 kt between 1050 pm on the 15th through 950 am on the 16th, and wave heights peaking at 18 feet.

A Pacific storm system moved out of the Four Corners region and into southeast Colorado and resulted in blizzard conditions over parts of east central Colorado. The storm produced a sharp snowfall and wind gradient across the Urban Corridor with little or no snow accumulation in Fort Collins and Boulder, and the northern suburbs of Denver, then translate to heavy snow and blizzard conditions across the southern and eastern suburbs. The Palmer Divide south and southeast of Denver was hit the hardest. Numerous road closures occurred south and southeast of Denver, including both directions of Interstate 70 from E-470 to Limon because of windy and whiteout conditions. Interstate 25 was closed from Monument Hill to Castle Rock, when two semi trucks jackknifed. The Colorado State Patrol reported an estimate of at least 100 to 150 vehicles were stranded in that area during the closure. In addition, numerous schools were closed and over 150 flights cancelled at Denver International Airport. Although the wind was not as strong, heavy snow fell in the southern Front Range Foothills. Storm totals in the foothills south of Interstate 70, and from the southern Denver suburbs, toward the Palmer Divide, ranged from 8 to 19 inches. The strongest winds east of Interstate 25, producing snow drifts from 2 to 6 feet deep south of Denver. In the Front Range mountains west of Denver, storm totals ranged from 4 to 9 inches.

Strong winds along the Front Range caused widespread power outages, downed power lines and downed trees. About 17,000 Xcel Energy customers in the Golden and Lakewood areas were without power during the afternoon. Xcel Energy crews repaired or replaced 100 poles that snapped in the strong winds. In Boulder County, power outage affected approximately 4,500 residents. Blowing snow produced low visibilities and black ice along Colorado 93, between Golden and Boulder; and along C-470 south of Interstate 70. Near Golden a semi truck was blown over. Peak wind gusts included: 102 mph at the National Wind Technology Center, 100 mph, 2 miles south of Gold Hill; 95 mph in Lyons, 94 mph at the NCAR Mesa Lab and the Junction of Colorado Highways 72 and 93; 90 mph, 3 miles south-southwest of Boulder; 80 mph at Jefferson; 79 mph, 2 miles south-southwest of Brainard Lake atop the Niwot Ridge Saddle at 11,500 ft; 78 mph, 3 miles east-northeast of Nederland; 77 mph, atop Peak 8 at Breckenridge Ski Area and 8 miles northeast of Four Corners; 76 mph atop Berthoud and Loveland Passes; 70 mph at Briggsdale, 63 mph at Sterling Municipal Airport, and 59 mph at Wiggins.

Widespread and significant flash flooding impacts occurred from Mayport southward to Neptune Beach during the evening hours with over 10 inches of rainfall measured at Naval Station Mayport for the day, but of which fell within 6 hours. The first report of flooding was reported around 7:26 pm by Fire Dept/Rescue with a road flooded just south of the Wonderwood Expressway. By 8:15 pm, the county emergency management (EM) reported water flooded homes and apartments off of Mayport Road near the 2100 block. Around 9 pm, EM received multiple reports of roads flooded between 1st and 3rd Streets in Jacksonville Beach. EM also reported apartments were flooded between 2130 and 2160 Mayport Road, roads were flooded in Mayport Village along Broad Street and Ribault Street, numerous streets were closed in Neptune Beach due to flooding, and several residences along Forest Avenue, Oak Street and Magnolia Street has water within them. A vehicle drove into the ditch along the 100 block of Penman Road because the driver could not make out the edge of the road due to flooding. Also around 9 pm, EM relayed that flooding impacted all of Atlantic Beach with the worst hit areas including Aquatic Drive, Cavella Road, Skate Road, Selva Marina Drive and the north end of the city in the area of 19th Street and 20th Street. Many of these roads were completely inundated with water and water flowed into some residences along these streets. The police department responded to several calls for stranded vehicles due to flood water. At 9 pm, EM reported a few units at the Admirals Walk Apartment complex were affected by flood waters. Units at Mariners Village Apartments were also flooded. The Arium Apartments at 2160 Mayport Road at 32 units affected by flooding last night. The Red Cross set up a service center to assist affected residents. Six condos along Seminole Road had water flow inside. Around 10:12 pm, a spotter reported water across the Days Inn parking lot near Atlantic and Aquatic drive with about 3 ft of standing water in the lot. Cars were submerged in the parking lot. Water entered part of the hotel. Aquatic drive was closed due to flood water about 2 ft deep in some areas. At 10:41 am on Nov. 9th, EM reported Palm Avenue in Atlantic Beach was impassable due to flooding. The street runs into Howell Park which was under water. The creek near city hall along Seminole Road and Palm Avenue is still very high but has subsided some and the parking lot for city hall and Russell Park is not longer flooded. The cost of damage was unknown, and is likely an underestimate.

An NWS JAX storm survey determined that flash flooding occurred during the evening and overnight hours within the McCoy's Creek basin on Sunday Nov. 8th as runoff from heavy rainfall was backed up by the evening high tide. On Monday Nov. 9th, flooding occurred during the morning hours within the basin. The primary flooding source east of Stockton Street was due to tidal departures of 1-1.5 ft above normal tides. West of Stockton Street fresh water rainfall runoff was expected to be the primary cause of flooding. Kings Street was also flooded. Parts of McCoys Creek Blvd were closed due to flood waters. Cost of damage was unknown but estimated for Storm Data.

A classic heavy rainfall scenario set up along the NE Florida Atlantic Coast where a stationary surface front meandered in the lower levels with strong onshore flow on the northern side of the boundary. Aloft deep layer SW flow and strong upper level divergence within the right-rear quadrant of a strong upper level jet enhanced deep layer lift over the stationary front.

A deepening area of low pressure tracking from Colorado into the western Great Lakes pulled a strong cold front into central Illinois during the evening of November 11th. Thanks to an unseasonably warm and moist airmass that had been pulled northward ahead of the system, a line of strong to severe thunderstorms developed along the front. Many of the storms produced 60-70mph wind gusts and localized wind damage, especially along and north of a Rushville to Bloomington line.

Widespread wind and tornado damage occurred in central Iowa as a result of a low pressure system that raced across the state. Originally, the low pressure center developed in eastern/southeastern Colorado late Tuesday/early Wednesday and proceeded to quickly move east-northeast across Kansas before taking a more northeasterly turn as it approached southwest Iowa. Throughout the event, MUCAPE values were generally in the neighborhood of 500 J/kg. Shear values were supportive with 0- 1km values and 0-6km values around 35kts and 85-90kts respectively. SRH values were also very supportive with 0-1km and 0-3km values around 350 m2/s2 and 500 m2/s2 respectively. With the speed of the system and the ample support, resulting storms were fast moving, in excess of 40mph, and of the low topped supercell variety before transitioning into a linear system as the event progressed. Note: The estimated wind gust of 61 knots is equivalent to 70 mph.

Low pressure was working its way off the Rockies and eastward along the Nebraska/Kansas border through the day Friday (20th). Ahead of the surface low pressure, the state primarily remained in easterly to southeasterly flow, but was able to boost dewpoints up into the upper 20s and low 30s. Mid-morning Friday the low pressure center remained in south-central Nebraska, but snowfall was beginning in northwest Iowa in conjunction with a theta-e push. Through the day the low pressure center moved eastward near the Nebraska-Kansas border before taking a southeast turn in the late afternoon and across northeast Kansas. All the while, snowfall spread eastward across the northern half of Iowa. Heaviest snowfall generally fell between 18z Friday and 06z Saturday. By late morning Saturday snowfall had exited the state. In the end, a swath of snowfall of 6-12 inches ran across the northern third to half of the state. Greatest amounts resided in northwest Iowa.

Southerly flow ahead of a surface cold front boosted surface dewpoints into the upper 40s and low 50s. As the cold front progressed southeast across the state during the day, bouts of moderate to heavy rainfall occurred through central and southern Iowa while western and northern Iowa dealt with bouts of freezing rain. In the end, a few locations in western and northwest portions of the state commonly reported between 0.10 and 0.25 of ice accumulation, and Rockwell City reported the greatest ice amount of 0.38. In central and southern Iowa, rain prevailed throughout and resulted in fairly impressive late fall rainfall totals of 1.5 to 2.5+.

A potent low pressure system moved across Missouri and southern Illinois Nov. 20th and 21st, bringing the season's first snowfall to much of the area. Widespread snowfall totals of 6 to 12 inches were found across northern Iowa and the Wisconsin- Illinois border. Isolated higher amounts of 14 to 16 inches were reported. Strong northerly winds developed as the system moved off to the northeast, which created patchy blowing and drifting snow. Rain prevailed for much of the night in parts of northeast Missouri and west central Illinois limiting snowfall amounts in those areas to generally under an inch.

The tornado started just south of the County Road 18 to the west of the city of Avoca, Iowa. The tornado tracked to the north northeast through open fields initially. Due to the recent harvest the tornado was easily tracked through the fields due to ground scouring of the left-over corn stocks. The tornado narrowly missed a farmstead along 420th street but did destroy one empty grain bin located across the street from the farm. The tornado continued to track across open fields until it crossed the busy Interstate 80 where a semi was lofted and tossed into a ditch on the north side of the interstate. At this location there were also large hardwood trees that were uprooted. The tornado continued to the northeast into Shelby County.

As low pressure moved from Kansas into eastern Nebraska during the day, warm and moist air was pushed northward into the region. This unseasonably warm and moist air led to increasing instability during the afternoon over western Iowa and southeast Nebraska. This combined with the strong wind field associated with the low produced an atmosphere ripe for severe weather. Thunderstorms developed along the cold front in eastern Nebraska by early afternoon, and then increased in coverage and intensity as they tracked east into western Iowa during the early afternoon. Large hail and isolated tornadoes were produced by these thunderstorms. Note: The measured wind gust of 62 knots is equivalent to 71 mph.

As a potent upper level storm system moved across the northern Plains on November 25th a sharp cold front slowly moved south through Nebraska and Iowa. This allowed for some of the coldest air of the early winter season to move into the mid Missouri River Valley. As warm and moist air continued to stream northeast across the area over this air the stage was set for a mix of freezing rain, sleet, and snow. The mix started early on the morning of the 26th and continued through the day creating some hazardous conditions for holiday travelers, scattered power outages, and some tree damage.

A long duration winter storm (primarily freezing rain) event began during the evening of Nov 26th and continued into Friday Nov 27th. There was a brief 6-8 hour break in the freezing rain on Friday afternoon into Friday evening. However another round of freezing rain developed and impacted much of the area on Saturday November 28th and continued through Saturday night into early Sunday morning November 29th. Light rain and freezing rain was reported on Sunday with more widespread rain, freezing rain and snow reported across north central Kansas Sunday night into early Monday morning on the 30th. For the sake of clarity this event will be split into 3 episodes, the initial freezing rain and sleet episode that occurred Thursday night through Friday and the longer, larger ice storm episode that occurred late Friday night into early Sunday morning and the final bout of freezing rain that occurred late Sunday night into early Monday. This episode deals with the first bout of freezing rain and sleet that occurred Thursday night into Friday. All told, many areas of northeast Kansas received anywhere from one quarter to three quarters of an inch of ice on flat surfaces and on trees and power lines. The cumulative impacts of repeated bouts of freezing precipitation began to cause tree limbs to break, power lines to fall and associated power outages Saturday through Sunday mainly across Morris, Wabaunsee, Pottawatomie, Riley, Dickinson, Clay, Geary and Lyon counties where the greatest impacts were reported by Sunday into Monday. Thousands of residents of those counties were without power by Sunday morning.

Some freezing rain and sleet occurred over Jewell and Mitchell counties on this Thanksgiving Day. A large swath of precipitation developed from the Texas Panhandle northeast into Iowa, shortly after daybreak. This precipitation expanded and progressively filled during the morning hours. A mixture of light wintry precipitation developed over north central Kansas. The precipitation was steadiest between 8 am and 12 pm CST. Thereafter, the freezing rain and sleet came through periodically, ending by 9 pm CST. This resulted in a minor glaze of ice. Roads became ice covered and treacherous for drivers. A cold front had crossed south central Nebraska the day before, allowing an unseasonably cold Canadian air mass to seep southward into the region. Arctic high pressure was 1041 mb over Montana. In the upper-levels, a positively tilted trough extended from Hudson Bay southwest into the western United States, with a low over Utah and Nevada. Southwest flow extended from the Desert Southwest all the way into eastern Canada. A ridge was over the Gulf of Mexico.

During the afternoon, and into the evening, scattered strong to severe storms moved into Northwest Kansas from the south. These storms were on the warmer half of a strong winter storm system that would bring blizzard conditions to Northwest Kansas the next day. Six separate tornadoes were reported over Northwest Kansas, the most tornadoes reported for the month of November. The tornadoes were reported over Gove, Sheridan and Norton counties. The longest tornado track was 17 miles, lasting over 30 minutes, as it traveled from Grainfield to near Tasco. In addition to the tornadoes, large hail up to golf ball size was reported near Tasco. Severe thunderstorm wind gusts up to 90 MPH were reported with some of the storms. The high winds caused near zero visibilities near Wheeler due to blowing dirt. Many power poles were destroyed by either tornado or high winds, leaving many people without power. In Hill City the roof was blown off the power plant, causing the town to lose power. Note: The estimated wind gust of 78 knots is equivalent to 90 mph.

On November 26th and 27th, a mixture of sleet and freezing rain spread across most of Central, South-Central, and Southeast Kansas. The primary culprit was a deep mid to upper cyclone that initially set up over the Desert Southwest before moving northeast across portions of Oklahoma and Kansas. During this period, a second storm system surged southeast from Saskatchewan & Manitoba into the Northern Plains. This system aided in pushing a strong cold front Southeast across Kansas that trapped bitterly cold air beneath a layer of moist warm air that was surging north across the region.

An upper level low sat over the Intermountain West at the beginning of this time frame then slowly moved eastward through the Central Rockies and Central Plains through November 30th. Upper level shortwaves ejected eastward towards western Kansas as the low shifted eastward. At the surface, low pressure located east of the area with a trough of low pressure across eastern Colorado allowed copious amounts of low to mid-level moisture to be advected northward from the Gulf of Mexico. A strong cold front moved through the area overnight on the 26th pushing this moisture into the mid levels. Precipitation fell behind this front as isentropic lift increased overnight. A wide range of precipitation fell overnight into the next morning with rain changing over to a mix of sleet, freezing rain, and snow. Over a quarter of an inch of ice was reported across portions of south central Kansas stretching westward as far as Liberal to Dodge City to Great Bend. A mix of sleet and snow was reported west of this line with minimal accumulations by the afternoon of the 27th. Periodic episodes of light freezing rain continued across portions of south central Kansas over the remainder of the 27th through the 29th with light freezing drizzle at times across the remainder of the forecast area. Another strong upper level shortwave moved through the area the night of the 29th into the morning of the 30th bringing another round of precipitation across western Kansas. Additional freezing rain, sleet, and snow were reported across central and south central Kansas with sleet and snow reported elsewhere. Up to 3 inches was reported across portions of west central Kansas with lesser amounts as you headed eastward. Ice accumulations over three quarters of an inch were reported across portions of south central Kansas with lesser amounts as you headed westward.

A deep upper trough exited the Inter-Mountain West and moved into the Southern Plains on the 17th of November. Ahead of this trough, copious amounts of moisture streamed northward from the Eastern Pacific and Gulf of Mexico. A warm front also lifted northward form the Gulf Coast, through Northeast Texas, Northwest Louisiana and Southern Arkansas. The atmosphere became weakly unstable across the region after sunrise on the 17th but atmospheric wind shear was very strong, both in the lower levels and the mid and upper levels of the atmosphere. As a result, storms took on bowing line segments with a few discrete storms also present during the day. These storms produced widespread wind damage and some flash flooding from excessive heavy rainfall with thunderstorm training occurred.

A sharp cold front interacted with a record warm airmass over Southeast Michigan during the morning of November 6. A narrow line of showers developed along the front and raced across the region between 5 and 8 am. Some of the particularly intense showers were able to pull down strong winds located just above the surface, resulting in several reports of wind damage. The strongest wind gusts were located around the Tri-Cities and Thumb regions. There was one particularly strong swath of downburst winds just south and east of Bad Axe, estimated at up to 85 mph. The Huron County Memorial Airport just south of Bad Axe recorded a wind gust of 73 mph. Along the line of showers, a few surges of stronger winds develop, which allowed three brief tornadoes to spin up. Two of the tornadoes that occurred near Bad Axe and Yale were rated EF-0 with peak winds of 85 mph, and one near Applegate was rated EF-1 with peak winds of 90 mph. These three tornadoes doubled the previous number of November tornadoes in Southeast Michigan from 3 to 6 (since 1950). Two of the tornadoes occurred between 7 and 8 am, making these the first tornadoes to occur during this hour on record.

MICHIGAN, East

The winter season started off with a bang as a strong winter storm hit across the Plains and Midwest. Less than two days prior, Southeast Michigan saw temperatures in the 60 degree range before temperatures quickly cooled off back below freezing as the winter storm took hold. A strong area of low pressure took shape out on the central plains on Friday and strengthened as it moved east over the Mid-Mississippi River Valley. Snowfall reports of around 12 inches were reported over parts of southern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois. The system then took aim on Michigan, bringing with it 1+ hour snowfall rates to portions of Southeast Michigan during the afternoon and early evening hours on Saturday. Washtenaw, Livingston, Oakland, and Genesee counties were the hardest hit in terms of total snowfall amounts ranging from 10 inches to over 16 inches. Howell, MI came in with the highest snowfall amount at 16.8 inches. The NWS Detroit/Pontiac office in White Lake, MI measured 15.5 by the time the storm wrapped up which is the largest snowstorm the office has seen since it was built in 1994.

Here are some additional higher snowfall reports: Clarkston (4 miles southwest) 15.5 inches. Manchester (5 miles north) 14.2 inches. Holly 14.0 inches. Hartland 14 inches. Milford 14 inches.

Minor flooding occurred along the Black River in Poplar Bluff. Some low-lying fields and woodlands along the river were flooded. South to southwesterly winds through a deep layer of the atmosphere brought copious amounts of moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. A large low pressure system moved slowly north across the Plains. Ahead of an occluded front that arced from the low across the Ozarks, there were two rounds of heavy rain. The first round fell on the 16th, producing about 2.5 inches in the Poplar Bluff area. This saturated the ground ahead of the second round of more intense rain during the evening of the 17th. This round included a line of heavy showers and storms that dumped an inch of rain in 30 minutes. Storm totals for the two-day event were 3 to 5.5 inches. Just ahead of the occluded front, a couple hours of strong southerly winds gusting to around 45 mph produced isolated tree damage. Wind gusts were measured up to 46 mph along the Mississippi River northeast of New Madrid. In western Ripley County, a carport was damaged, and tree limbs fell on power lines.

NEBRASKA, South Central

A rare November tornado occurred early this Monday evening, followed by snow Tuesday afternoon and evening in the same area. An outbreak of tornadic supercells occurred over western Kansas late Monday afternoon and evening. One of these supercells, with a history of producing at least one tornado, exited Kansas and crossed into eastern Furnas county around 7:30 pm CST. This storm produced an EF-1 tornado with a track nearly 13 miles in length over southeastern and east-central Furnas county. The storm ceased to be tornadic as a broken line of faster-moving thunderstorms caught up to and absorbed it. This was the first tornado for the Hastings County Warning Area since the EF-0 that occurred near Ayr on November 5, 2000. This was the first November tornado for the entire state of Nebraska since the Cass County EF-0 on November 17, 2003. About an hour after the storm merger occurred, this storm produced one inch hail a little west of Holdrege.

This storm, and all the other nearby tornadic storms, developed as lee cyclogenesis occurred and a warm front lifted north to the northwest Kansas-southwest Nebraska border. A cold front emerged from the Rockies and crossed south central Nebraska Monday night into Tuesday morning. This advected much colder temperatures into the region. As the 992 mb low emerged into Kansas during the day, a narrow band of snow developed around its northern and western periphery. The result was three to six inches of snow over portions of south central Nebraska, with the highest amounts over Dawson and Gosper counties.

Within the environment that produced the tornadic supercells, temperatures surged into the lower 70s, with dewpoints near 50. Mid-level lapse rates were poor which resulted in MUCAPE no greater than 500 J/kg. However, deep layer shear was 50-55 kts with 0-1 km SRH 250 m2/s2, more than sufficient for rotating storms and tornadoes. In the upper-levels, a trough was over the western United States Monday, with a ridge over the East. A closed low was in the base of the trough and was advancing through the Desert Southwest. This low then tracked across the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles and into southern Kansas Tuesday. By daybreak Wednesday, this low was near Topeka. This was a strong system with the surface low as deep as 989 mb. By Wednesday morning, the upper-level jet streak that rotated around the base of the low had intensified to 150 kts.

A mixture of light wintry precipitation developed over south central Nebraska. The precipitation was steadiest between 8 am and 12 pm CST. Thereafter, the freezing rain and sleet came through periodically, ending by 9 pm CST. This resulted in a minor glaze of ice. Roads became ice covered and treacherous for drivers. A cold front had crossed south central Nebraska the day before, allowing an unseasonably cold Canadian air mass to seep southward into the region. Arctic high pressure was 1041 mb over Montana. In the upper-levels, a positively tilted trough extended from Hudson Bay southwest into the western United States, with a low over Utah and Nevada. Southwest flow extended from the Desert Southwest all the way into eastern Canada. A ridge was over the Gulf of Mexico.

After a return to closer to normal precipitation in October, the month of November proved to be drier than normal across much of New Jersey, and the United States Drought Monitor continued abnormally dry to moderate drought levels in northern to northeast New Jersey. The New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection also continued the drought watch for the northern to northeast part of the state, and this included all or parts of Morris, Hunterdon, Somerset, Middlesex, Monmouth, Mercer and Ocean Counties. In addition, water restrictions that were imposed during October in Newton (Sussex County) continued because the water level at Morris Lake, the town's reservoir in Sparta, was dropping. The restrictions prohibited watering of lawns and gardens; washing cars, trucks, boats or any recreational vehicle; washing driveways, sidewalks or walkways and filling swimming pools or ornamental pools. Declining reservoir storage noted in October in the New Jersey Water Supply Authoritys Spruce Run and Manasquan Reservoirs in Hunterdon and Monmouth Counties, also persisted in November. Another noticeable and agricultural side effect of the dry weather was an expected smaller (in size) pumpkin crop. Farmers had to endure increased costs of water and electricity to irrigate their crops. The Department of Environmental Protection urged residents in the drought watch area to voluntarily conserve water as precipitation deficits were greater in northern New Jersey and for the rest of the state to practice wise water use due to overall continued dry weather and above-average temperatures. The drought watch was continued due to below average precipitation that has decreased reservoir, ground water, and streamflow levels in the area. Signs of stress in water supply indicators persisted. The department asked residents to use water more carefully and deliberately, especially when it comes to lawn watering and other non-essential uses. The goal is to moderate water demand through voluntary conservation. Some suggested water conservation tips included: to not over-water lawns and landscaping; use a hose with a hand-held nozzle to water flowers and shrubs; avoid watering lawns and plants during the heat of the day; use a broom to sweep the sidewalk, rather than a hose; fix leaky faucets and pipes; turn off the faucet while brushing teeth and shaving and run washing machines and dishwashers only when fully loaded.

Portions of Highway 109 were closed due to flooding. Widespread and locally heavy rainfall occurred from the 26th through the 30th across much of eastern Oklahoma. A slow- moving storm system over the southwestern United States and a nearly stationary frontal boundary over the region resulted in several rounds of widespread rain and isolated thunderstorms. Near record precipitable water values were observed as gulf moisture spread into the area in the lower levels of the atmosphere, and moisture associated with a tropical system over the southeastern Pacific Ocean spread into the region in the middle and upper levels of the atmosphere. Rainfall amounts ranged from around three inches in portions of northeastern Oklahoma to between eight and ten inches in southeastern Oklahoma. This excessive rainfall, combined with soils that were already quite saturated, resulted in flash flooding and flooding. Several main stem rivers flooded, including the Neosho River near Commerce and the Kiamichi River near Antlers, which both experienced moderate flooding.

OKLAHOMA, Extreme Southeast

A deep upper level trough became cut off from the westerlies across the Inter-Mountain West. This trough helped to bring up Gulf of Mexico moisture as well as Eastern Pacific moisture into the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley. The heavy rain threat was aided by moisture streaming northward from Hurricane Sandra which was just off the western Mexican coast at this time. Rainfall became quite heavy on the 27th and 28th of the month with two day rainfall totals in excess of 4 to 8 inches across portions of the county. The result was widespread flooding across the county.

A powerful storm system brought significant severe weather to the region. Tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail accompanied thunderstorms that formed during the afternoon hours and persisted into the evening. This was a very unusual event for late fall in the Central High Plains. One significant factor in this anomalous event was the presence of an unusual amount of moisture for mid-November, contributing to relatively high values of instability. Only one tornado had previously been documented in the Oklahoma Panhandle during the month of November.

A brief tornado crossed Highway 23 just south of Kiowa Creek. Little to no damage was observed due to lack of structures in the rural location. The tornado was rated EF-0. A powerful storm system brought significant severe weather to the region. Tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail accompanied thunderstorms that formed during the afternoon hours and persisted into the evening. This was a very unusual event for late fall in the Central High Plains. One significant factor in this anomalous event was the presence of an unusual amount of moisture for mid-November, contributing to relatively high values of instability. No tornadoes had previously been documented in the Texas Panhandle during the month of November.

A cold front moved through the Texas Panhandle on the night of the 25th resulting in a layer of shallow cold air across the area on the 26th. A strong storm system approached from the west bringing moisture and relatively warm air atop the cold shallow layer. This is an optimal setup for freezing rain and sleet. Amounts ranged from around a quarter of an inch of ice in the northwest Texas Panhandle to as much as an inch in the eastern Texas Panhandle. Roads became slick causing hazardous travel conditions. Some power outages occurred, especially in the southeastern portion s of the Panhandle where ice amounts were greatest.

A deep upper level trough became cut off from the westerlies across the Inter-Mountain West. This trough helped to bring up Gulf of Mexico moisture as well as Eastern Pacific moisture into the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley. The heavy rain threat was aided by moisture streaming northward from Hurricane Sandra which was just off the western Mexican coast at this time. Rainfall became quite heavy on the 27th and 28th of the month with two day rainfall totals in excess of 4 to 8 inches across portions of Northeast Texas. The result was widespread flooding across a few counties.

In advance of a strong upper level low in the four corners region and a Pacific cold front, rich moisture from the Gulf of Mexico aided in the development of scattered thunderstorms early this afternoon over the western South Plains. Strong wind shear allowed for one of these storms to become a long-lived supercell that raced northeast at nearly 50 mph from near Morton to west of Vigo Park. This storm reached severe levels in Swisher County before producing significant tornadoes early in the evening in NWS Amarillo's forecast area. Farther south and just after sunset, the Pacific cold front ignited a few lines of strong and severe thunderstorms over the South Plains - some of which produced localized flooding and damaging downburst winds particularly in the city of Lubbock. Note: The measured wind gust of 54 knots is equivalent to 62 mph.

Following a sharp cold front which ignited a few strong thunderstorms during the late afternoon hours on Thanksgiving Day, brisk northerly winds and freezing temperatures overspread the region and remained in place for nearly 48 hours. Atop this shallow layer of cold air, anomalously moist air from the Gulf of Mexico combined with a strong subtropical upper jet to produce periodic rounds of mostly freezing rain from Thanksgiving night through the morning hours on the 28th. A few periods of sleet and even very light snow accompanied this multi-day storm; however, all significant impacts were the direct result of icing from freezing rain. As the brunt of the freezing rain fell on the 27th, many dubbed this as the Black Friday ice storm. With the exception of the western South Plains and parts of the southern Rolling Plains, most locations received ice amounts of around 0.25. A pronounced swath of 0.50 to nearly 1 fell from just east of Crosbyton, northeast to Matador, Paducah, and Childress. The core of this heavy icing was the result of elevated thunderstorms during the evening on the 27th that trained across the northern Rolling Plains for nearly two hours. Thousands of people in Motley, Dickens, Cottle, and Childress Counties were without power for up to three days as power lines suffered extensive damage spanning long distances. Additionally, vehicle accidents peaked by Friday night as road temperatures finally cooled to the freezing point. In Lubbock, some overpasses were closed periodically through the night due to recurring accidents. From about 1920 CST until 2300 CST, Lubbock DPS was unable to keep pace with the rate of vehicle accidents, some of which involved minor injuries. Fortunately, Lubbock International Airport reported very few delays and no cancellations that were directly attributable to the storm. This multi-day storm dealt a heavy economic blow to the city of Lubbock in the form of lost business revenue (estimated as high as $5M) as thousands of holiday shoppers wisely chose to stay home on Friday and Saturday instead of travel in such hazardous weather conditions. Dozens of weekend school athletic games and functions were either rescheduled or cancelled. Regional utility providers reported a combined loss of just over 90 utility poles with around 100 miles worth of damaged power lines - much of which occurred in Motley, Cottle, Childress, and Dickens Counties. Combined with property damage from fallen limbs and trees (many that still had leaves) and scores of vehicle accidents, total damages throughout the region could approach several million USD.

The tight pressure gradient between the two features resulted in 60 to 65 knot southeasterly low level jet along the central Appalachians. Winds were particularly strong on the west side of the actual ridge lines, where downslope flow acted to draw the winds of the low level jet toward the surface, resulting in surface gusts 50 to nearly 60 mph.

Flooding from the Hoh river damaged Oil City road. The Elwha River flexed its new muscles during the most recent round of storms and severely damaged Olympic Hot Springs Road and effectively buried a campground in silt. The river rose to 23.19 feet, major flood, on Nov. 17 during a heavy rainstorm that produced 5.6 inches of rain on that date in the Elwha watershed. When the water receded, Olympic National Park officials discovered the water had washed out a 60-foot-long section of Olympic Hot Springs Road, and much of Elwha Campground had nearly disappeared under more than a foot of silt and debris. It is the highest the river has reached since the Elwha and Glines Canyon dams were removed, and the seventh highest crest recorded. The Stillaguamish near Arlington was at major flood stage, and prompted a shutdown of SR 530 east of the city. Sections of US 101 near Port Angeles and US 2 Gold Bar-Skykomish were closed due fallen trees and water over the road. At the Sultan fire station, employees moved fire trucks as flood water inched closer. On Main Street, the water rose so quickly that one woman's only option was to escape out her front window. Heavy rain swelled a creek which kept a 15 mile stretch of US highway 2 closed after finding that the storm-fed creek had undermined the bridge foundation.

Flooding on Mineral Creek damaged a segment of the Mount Rainier Scenic Railroad.

The Elwha River flexed its new muscles during the most recent round of storms and severely damaged Olympic Hot Springs Road and effectively buried a campground in silt. The river rose to 23.19 feet, major flood, on Nov. 17 during a heavy rainstorm that produced 5.6 inches of rain on that date in the Elwha watershed. When the water receded, Olympic National Park officials discovered the water had washed out a 60-foot-long section of Olympic Hot Springs Road, and much of Elwha Campground had nearly disappeared under more than a foot of silt and debris. It is the highest the river has reached since the Elwha and Glines Canyon dams were removed, and the seventh highest crest recorded. The Stillaguamish near Arlington was at major flood stage, and prompted a shutdown of SR 530 east of the city. Sections of US 101 near Port Angeles and US 2 Gold Bar-Skykomish were closed due fallen trees and water over the road. At the Sultan fire station, employees moved fire trucks as flood water inched closer. On Main Street, the water rose so quickly that one woman's only option was to escape out her front window. Heavy rain swelled a creek which kept a 15 mile stretch of US highway 2 closed after finding that the storm-fed creek had undermined the bridge foundation.

Several roads were closed due to water on the roadways including Covered Bridge Road, Eden Valley Road, Satterland Road, Foster Road, and West End Loop Road. Grays River near Rosburg exceeded flood stage early in the morning on the 17th then exceeded major flood stage in the evening. The river crested at 16.09 feet, and fell below flood stage around 2 pm Wednesday afternoon. Heavy rain also resulted in a small landslide near milepost 2 on Altoona Pillar Rock Road.

A very moist frontal system produced heavy rain across the region resulting in flooding. Rain rates of 0.3 to 0.5 inch per hour was observed for several hours at many locations. The flooding was a combination of urban and small stream flooding and river flooding. The coastal rivers were already running high from a moist front that moved through a couple of days prior, and the additional rain was enough to push several of them above flood stage.

A strong cold front pushed south into Wyoming during the morning hours of Wednesday, November 18. The pressure gradient and favorable winds aloft combined to produce widespread high winds over most lower elevation locations. Ahead of the front, westerly wind routinely gusted between 60 and 70 mph, especially during the morning and midday hours. Peak winds across northern Wyoming were generally from the northwest and occurred immediately after passage of the cold front. Some of the strongest winds were recorded in northern Johnson County, where peak speeds of 74 mph and 84 mph were observed at the Buffalo airport and a mesonet sensor along I-90 east of Buffalo, respectively. The strongest gusts were registered west of Clark during the early morning with the peak gust being 104 mph around 0100MST.

A storm moved out of the northern Great Basin and slowed down as it moved through Wyoming. This resulted in a rather prolonged period of snow that hampered Thanksgiving Week travel. Moisture overran a dome of cold air in place across central Wyoming and enhanced snowfall across Fremont and Natrona counties. The heaviest snow fell in the areas favored by north to northeast upslope flow, generally along the east slopes of the Wind River Mountains through the Lander Foothills and east to around Casper. Snow amounts of around one foot were common in the vicinity of Lander with totals of at least 14 in the mountains above town. Other locations with heavy snow included the Wind River Basin where 6 to 10 inches of snow fell and south of Casper where 6 to 8 inches was measured.
