This severe storm (tornado) in New York City and one occurred nearly at the same time in Chicago is NOT a single occurrence


A tornado with winds of up to 135 miles an hour took roofs off in Brooklyn.

I have repeatedly stated 'the troposphere' under this layer of carbon dioxide is 'fixed.' By 'fixed' I mean there are reoccuring patterns without change. Currently the troposphere is receiving full intensity of 'heat' because it is warmed not once by northern movement of solar radiation but twice on the southern movement. This 'repeated' traverse across the face of Earth is why the hurricane season is mostly concentrated after the first day of summer. The repeat trip south of solar radiation provides an additional warming to Earth. That is normally 'handled' by hurricanes, but, because there is so little available humidity to 'produce/manifest' as hurricanes, Earth's troposphere is finding new ways to 'enable' heat exchange.

Downpours flood northern Illinois (click here)
Waterlogged residents in northern Illinois were bracing themselves Tuesday for more rain—and checking their sump pumps—after flash floods overnight soaked basements, closed highways and forced at least 40 people to evacuate their homes in Rockford.Hardest hit by the storms were Lake and McHenry Counties and part of southeast Rockford. At the height of the storm, nearly 50,000 Commonwealth Edison customers were without power in northern Illinois.Nearly 7 inches of rain fell in Rockford, while McHenry and Lake Counties were drenched with 4 to 5 inches, according to the National Weather Service in Romeoville. More rain is in the forecast for Wednesday afternoon, said Bill Nelson, a weather service meteorologist....

Currently and repeatedly noted on this blog, the 'pattern' of heat transfer is occurring in the center of the North American continent. "The T-Zone" has been noted as per NASA. The reason these major storms are occurring at far higher latitudes is because there is humidity there.

I'll comment on the satellite images below:
