DROUGHT - Severe to Extreme drought conditions continue across Wisconsin here in late July according to the UNL drought monitor. We are 3-7" below average rainfall over the last 60 days! The CPC 6-10 outlook does show positive signs of a slightly wetter signal with storm chances. This time of year tends to be our wettest so hopefully in the days to come we can start pushing the needle back the other way! -JP Sources - UNL, HPRCC, CPC

Hi! We're back! Need a few days to get all systems up and running. All posts, reports, data, everything is intact. Due to database size limitations I excluded older posts/reports/images for now. 7-day forecast will remain broken until I can finish the migration i started last year. Stay tuned. Thanks!

930PM - scattered t-storms will pass through Wisconsin tonight. Couple of the storms could be strong/severe across central or southern WI. Widespread severe weather is unlikely. Fingers crossed that rainfall makes to those who need it, especially southern WI. -JP

Cows were picked up in the Town of Clayton and found in Greenville. My dad watched the tornado cross behind the barn. Down the road it killed a lady helping her elderly mother into the basement. ~ JG

EXPIRED - WINTER STORM - a major storm will impact Wisconsin beginning tonight through Thursday! Several inches of snow over central & northern Wisconsin, possibly over 1 foot in some areas. The latest GFS might be exaggerated on snow predictions but shows the BIG picture. Windy too! In southern Wisconsin sleet, freezing rain, and mixed precip will be the challenge. Enjoy and stay safe!! -JP (img: pivotalweather.com/12zGFS)

Severe storm in Winneconne last night. No power since 5:30PM yesterday. We're good. We got lucky with no damage.

Yes, looking more likely for a widespread explosive evening tomorrow. The SPC expanded the risk area a bit more now. Hope we don't have to get the chainsaws out and no one gets hurt.

7-day forecasts will be offline until further notice. The NWS moved text guidance files to a new location. It will take me some time to rebuild the connections and perhaps add some new things in the process. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hey everyone! Quick update. Still working on an update to pull FB posts into our website news feed. I've developed the communication structure and I'm getting ready to integrate it into the database. I'm a little indecisive about the best path to take so I'll take some time to think. I've been really busy lately! I recently started a new job and now that it's summer I tend to spend more time outside with the family. I haven't forgotten! I hope everyone is doing good! Talk to you soon!

Development Update - starting a project to improve communication and pull comms into the website. Will take a few weeks. This will really add to the experience and make my life easier. Will still have all the classic forms of communication such as blog and email updates to use as needed!

Happy Memorial Day Weekend! I'm happy to share I've had positive movement in my life over the last month! A new chapter is possible with Wisconsinwx.com. I first need to set a foundation of healthy expectations and boundaries. Stay tuned!

The fuel is there today. All it needs is something to pull the trigger, hopefully not in my backyard but maybe in a bare field somewhere. Good luck today!

FYI I've opened up snowfall accumulation and other map making access to Kevin Z. If you see new maps being shared with the WIWX watermark across the interwebs, it is expected. Thank you!

Watch out tonight across northern Iowa, southeast MN, and Western WI. Fast moving tornadoes possible. Very strong wind gusts too.

Wow, this is Dec. 15 and an MDT close to home! Hopefully the squall line has weakened enough when it gets here that it doesn’t bring down the high winds aloft. It could be a double whammy.

v11.12 out tonight for bug fixes on the post and threads pages related to likes, edit, deletes, and media previews. Home page changes: removed youtube videos section due to lack of content. If I post a video it will still display in the feed. Double posting problem on home page for blogs, I will work out a solution. Brought back discussion board widget on home page to try something different but also might want to give technical updates their own place. I want to clear out any bugs or weirdness before starting on new features. No luck with .grb2 file processing meaning 7-day forecasts will remain as is for now. Need to optimize the new feed because it currently updates on every page load. Thanks!

Good news. If your membership was canceled BUT you kept your account, you can now reactivate your membership! The reactivation button is on the Account page under the Membership tab. Clicking this button will only flip the membershipActive flag in the system so you can receive alerts/comms and interact with the website. If you run into problems please let me know. New memberships can now be started too if interested. There is bug with the "like" button not working on the post page and discussion boards that I will fix. Several things on my mind for the coming months. Thanks!

Update 11.11 went out tonight and SMS/TXT MSG services should be working again. You will need to verify your number on the account page. Once verified all updates (nws, blog, etc) should flow like before. Cleared the way for new member registration & updated the registration page. Post update I realized we don't have a reactivation process for old expired accounts so I'm keeping the maintenance block on the registration page until I can finish the job. And the service descriptions have changed so need to update the advert. Beyond that hopefully some new content, features, and forecasts one of these days. Thanks!

Pushed a few fixes live tonight. I’m bringing back the SMS/TXT MSG service for free! It's not quite ready yet. I reset everybody's phoneNumComfirmed flag to 0 so that no messages will get sent unless you opt-in again. Will let you know how to do that later. I loved that service and I'm excited for it's return. Another motivation is to add service for scheduled send of 7 Day Forecasts, let's say every SUN PM for the week ahead so it just hits my phone and I don't have to go searching for it. I'm still working through sms integration with the provider and will let you know when it's ready. One last thing; I'm itching to bring back free memberships and that should happen on the next update. Take care guys!
