[🧵] One word, asinine. That’s the word we can describe April 2022. And that’s what we will be reviewing in the #WxWrapUp of that month. (1/7)
#Tropicswx: It was very problematic for many w/ the 1st being Megi. It generated massive landslides & flooding that killed 200+ people. The current damage toll stands at ₽4.7B. It’s likely both Agaton & Megi will be tossed off the naming list. (2/7)
In South Africa, a deadly flood event occurred from a system that became Issa. Issa is the deadliest TCs in 🇿🇦 history. Most of the impacts occurred in KZN Province where cleanup is still underway to this day. (3/7)

March was very interesting with what it had. Weather stories made some serious headlines & we'll shear that in March 2022's #WxWrapUp. (1/4)
Tropics: We start with Gombe. It left a mark on Mozambique with serious impacts. A total of 72 have died from the storm. This storm's circulation even reached Malawi as a depression (barely), becoming the 1st to do so since Idai '19. (2/4)
SevereWx: The start of it was deadly w/ 7 dead in a nasty IA outbreak w/ an EF4 in Winterset. Then in Mid-Mar., Jacksboro, TX & Arabi, LA were hit by damaging EF3s. Lastly, on the 31st, a deadly EF3 killed 2 in Cottondale, FL. Overall, 11 were killed by tornadoes in March. (3/4)

[🧵] A December to remember. That's the words we had for this crazy conclusion of 2021. So much went down that we now have to break our rule on 10 tweets or less. So here it is, our monthly installment of #WxWrapUp for December 2021. (1/13)
Tropics: Nyatoh reached super typhoon status all due to the jet stream. Admittedly, it's not the best looking super typhoon but it reached that status. Nyatoh was 1 of 2 STYs in Dec.; the 1st time since 1959. (2/13)
Ruby came next in the AUS basin. At one point it was forecasted to rapidly intensify as it moved into New Caledonia; thankfully that wasn't the case. However, the center went through almost the entire island of Grande Terre. (3/13)

(🧵of x) September was full of surprises and all. So now we can finally show them all to you in our September 2021 #WxWrapUp. (1/7)
Tropics: The WPac had 2 notable storms. Conson (Jolina) did some notable impacts to the Central Philippines. With damages estimates reaching $1B PH, it's likely the local name Jolina will be retired. We also had the monster typhoon Chanthu (Kiko) with winds up to 180mph. (2/7)
In the EPac, things were quiet with only 1 storm which was Olaf which hit Baja California Sur & hugged the coast. They were reported damages & 1 death unfortunately. It managed to reached C2 status before all was said & done. (3/7)

(🧵of 9) August was that month that literally went ham on us. So today, we will be reviewing that in our #WxWrapUp for August 2021!

(NOTE: Some events in this review occurred in September however, due to the main event starting in late August, we will be adding that here.) (1/9)
Tropics: The ATL went crazy, especially with 1 of Louisiana's worst hurricanes to impact the state. Ida ruined many communities with its destructive winds & storm surge flooding. And we can still see recovery efforts underway still. It's 1 of 7 LA landfalls within 3 years. (2/9)
Ida is the deadliest TC in the Lower 48 since Harvey '17 with 95 dead. As of now, it's the 6th costliest TC worldwide on record sitting at nearly $65B. Our hearts still go out to the victims of this monster we had & hoping the folks there have a safe recovery. (3/9)

Admittedly, July had more stuff than June. Alot of material to cover & all. We will be happy to reveal them all in the #WxWrapUp for July 2021. (🧵 of 10; (1/10)
#Tropics: Elsa may have brought the memes, but the impacts were no laughing matter. Elsa nearly caused $1B in damages & effects were felt from Barbados to Greenland where it snowed. Elsa is the earliest "E" storm on record. (2/10)
The EPac had the furious Felicia which brought us a treat of an amazing annular structure. It was a very small tropical cyclone with the CDO extending out ~80mi in diameter. You can put Felicia in the eye of Typhoon In-fa because it was that small, and speaking of which... (3/10)

And now, onto June 2021 where we also have some wild weather stories to share in our latest #WxWrapUp! (1/7) Image
#Tropics: The South Atlantic blew us out the water with a strong subtropical storm in the winter of the SHem. Raoni formed & strengthened to a windspeed of 60mph, the strongest since Eçaí, & the strongest pressure wise since Hurricane Catarina '04. Such a rare event. (2/7) ImageImageImageImage
Other than that, the ATL was busy with 3 systems, Bill, Claudette, & Danny. Claudette caused some significant damage to the south with 14 deaths (deadliest tropical storm in US since Fay '08) & bringing a few tornadoes (stated in a later thread). (3/7) ImageImageImageImage
