Tom... on Saturday I bet the number of storm warnings was crazy. I know that Labette County in SE KS alone went under warnings 6 different times. :o

Sure was a busy severe weather day. We are just a third into Spring and then we have the hazy, hot and humid days of Summer for some more active thunderstorm days.

There have already been over 120 Weather Watch Boxes this year (first one[s] being issued on Friday, February 14th).

Does anyone know the average number of weather watches each year?

There have been 700+ weather watches a year. So, that would make an average of 2 or 3 watch boxes per day.

Thanks for the info. Tom!

Does anyone here know where that tornado was located in the Cleveland nws area? I have been searching for info about it and i keep comming up short? A county or City would do........This is my nws area and i didnt hear anything about it untill i read the storm reports here.....I know of all the Severe Thunderstorm Warnings but nothing of any Tornadoes. Thanks....
