🌩️ Air pollution is making #thunderstorms more dangerous. A new study shows that #pollution increases lightning strikes, especially in unstable weather conditions.
This morning, we're looking at the water vapor channel on @NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ as it tracks a strong storm system moving across the U.S. and southern Canada. The system is bringing a #SlightRisk of severe #thunderstorms to parts of the northern Plains, and High Wind Warnings across Montana and Wyoming.
Visible/#lightning composite imagery from @NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ tracked the numerous #thunderstorms over North Carolina associated with Potential Tropical Cyclone #Eight yesterday. The storms brought very heavy rainfall and caused significant flooding throughout the region. https://t.co/Eud9rKlbPq
.@NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ is monitoring the weather over the U.S. this morning. There's a threat for severe #thunderstorms across parts of the nation today, including an #EnhancedRisk over the Upper Midwest. There is also a #SlightRisk for severe weather in southern New England.
As @NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ monitors the weather over the U.S. today, it is focusing in on the nation's midsection, where there is a #SlightRisk of severe #thunderstorms developing across parts of the Midwest and Ohio Valley.
.@NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ is keeping an eye on the weather as the sun rises over the U.S. this morning. There is a #SlightRisk of severe #thunderstorms across parts of the nation's midsection today, with an #EnhancedRisk over the Northern Plains.
This morning, @NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ is watching a wide swath of the U.S. from the Upper Midwest to the Tennessee Valley, where there is a #SlightRisk of severe #thunderstorms today.
RT @NHC_TAFB: Widespread strong #thunderstorms with frequent #lightnings (orange-red) have been flaring up near and east of the Bahamas since last night. However, there are no obvious surface features other than modest convergent southerly winds. https://t.co/F05HF978rh

This morning, @NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ is keeping close watch on the Four Corners region up through the Northern Plains/Upper Midwest, where there is a #SlightRisk for severe #thunderstorms today. Some storms may also develop from the Great Lakes to southern New England.
.@NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ is tracking active weather over the central U.S. this morning, where there is a #SlightRisk for severe #thunderstorms developing from Oklahoma to Minnesota today.
Water vapor imagery via @NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ is showing deep moisture (🟢⚪️) over parts of the U.S. this morning. There is a #SlightRisk of severe #thunderstorms developing across the western Plains and the Northeast today.
