    That's something like 24,000 times the average US worker's yearly pay or 55,000 times the average Polish worker's yearly pay.

    Winter weather, Winter storm, and wind chill alerts for parts of #NE, #KS, #MO, #IL, #IA. The alerts I received go right up to the state borders of #OK and #AR, so I expect there are other alerts valid for those areas.

    Includes snow, mixed precipitation, wind, ice, extreme cold (-30F / -34C in central Nebraska), with extreme wind chills being mostly across the Northern part of the area. #NOAA / #NWS has sent at least 20 alerts since 04:00 Eastern (03:00 Central). Weather begins this afternoon / evening and continues through Saturday, possibly into Sunday in some areas.

    If you're in the middle of the US, take proper care. This weather can kill, either directly or by causing traffic collisions.

    Looks at inbox. 46 messages.

    There was a storm that swept through #MO last night, so I got notices for tornado watches, then severe thunderstorm warnings, then tornado warnings, then as the storm moved out of the area, watch cancellations.

    (Some of those alerts overlapped neighboring states of #KS, #AR, #IL.)

    AFAIK, no damage to the areas where the kids live.

    Looking at the #NOAA satellite view. There's a line of storms shooting from the SE corner of Nebraska, across the bottom of Iowa and top of Missouri, broadening out in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and starting to enter parts of Pennsylvania and New York. If you're in any of those areas, prepare for what looks like a pretty strong bunch of #t-storms.

    Several #tornadoes reported in #AL. Also some in #KS, #MO, #IL, #MS. Probably other states as well, but these are the ones I’ve seen reports about.

    One passed near Tuscaloosa, Alabama, which saw some major #tornado damage in 2011.

    1. NWS confirms large, extremely dangerous tornado near Tuscaloosa
      from ccox
      TUSCALOOSA COUNTY, Ala. (WKRG) — At 2:41 p.m., the National Weather Service Birmingham confirmed a large and extremely dangerous tornado near Shelton State Community College, about nine miles…
    2. 2011 Tuscaloosa–Birmingham tornado
      The 2011 Tuscaloosa–Birmingham tornado was an EF4 multiple-vortex tornado that destroyed portions of Tuscaloosa and Birmingham, Alabama, as well as smaller communities and rural areas between the two cities, during the late afternoon and early evening of April 27, 2011. It is one of the costliest tornadoes on record. It was one of the 360 tornadoes in the 2011 Super Outbreak, the largest tornado outbreak in United States history. The tornado reached a maximum path width of 1.5 miles (2.4 km) during its track through Tuscaloosa, and once again when it crossed Interstate 65 north of Birmingham, and attained estimated winds of 190 mph (310 km/h) shortly after passing through the city. It then went on to impact parts of Birmingham as a high-end EF4 before dissipating. This was the third tornado to strike the city of Tuscaloosa in the past decade, and the second in two weeks. Meteorological synopsis On April 23, the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) began monitoring the potential for a substantial severe weather outbreak in the extended range. As a shortwave trough tracked across portions...

    Told #sonTwo to monitor temperature in #GS3's room and to bring him into their room if it gets too cool in there.

    Wind chills expected to reach -5°F to -20°F across #KS, #MO, #IL, lower in #NE and #IA.

    #NOAA / #NWS minor #flood alert for mid #MO. Just a few hours after a #red_flag warning from SW MO to mid #IL (strong winds, low humidity). Based on current and expected rainfall, there may be some riverbank overflow. Stay away from creeks, streams, rivers, and low-lying areas.

    Uh oh. #NOAA / #NWS is sending Red Flag warnings for much of #KS and #MO, including the Kansas City and Saint Louis areas. Also affecting portions of SW #IL. Strong winds and low relative humidity mean that any fires will spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.

    And also Red Flag warnings for portions of #San_Bernardino and #Riverside Counties in #SoCal. Gusty winds and low relative humidity in and below the coast-facing slopes of the San Bernardino, San Gorgonio, and Santa Ana mountain ranges, coastal foothills, and nearby valleys mean that any fires will spread rapidly.

    According to Google, there are cities in five states with the name "Chillicothe":

    They are in: Ohio ( #OH ), Iowa ( #IA ), Illinois ( #IL ), Missouri ( #MO ), and Texas ( #TX ).
