The National Hurricane Center is watching a disturbance that could develop over the northeastern Gulf this weekend. Odds of formation remain low at 20% over the next 7 days. Heavy rain may become the bigger story. Arthur is still the Atlantic’s only named storm, with Bertha next on the list.

OTD last year, June 22, 2025, Juston Drake and I captured a nice supercell and cone to bowl-shaped multivortex tornado over the Big Woods of Minnesota near the community of Grygla. We dodged falling trees and navigated sketchy forest roads to get these views. #mnwx
