But is it enough rainfall to defeat the drought?

EDIT: Has Minnesota ever signed an emergency declaration and/or a drought declaration that remains active on the books?

The southwest laughs at the northern's wimpiness over the lack of rain for two months.

The deep south also gives a hearty chuckle of its own. Summer through the next Spring season has frequently been drought conditions for that area.

Hello, I am Bong. Why do you keep using this word "rain" to refer to normal air? I see some of your pictures and the sky is a strange blue colour, instead of the correct grey. Someone please explain the scary bright ball.

But in all seriousness, we've been having the tail-end of America's most recent tropical storms for the last month or so. It's brought a lot of warm, wet, windy weather in from the west and promoted the met office to declare the world is ending (again), with various colours of weather warnings that most of you lot would no doubt laugh at. It's always fascinating to see just how far these storm systems travel.

Typhoon Kong-rey/Leon in the west Pacific is currently a category 4-equivalent typhoon with sustained 1-minute winds of 130mph.
This thing is absolutely gigantic, with an eye that is 70 miles wide.

Clearly making up for Milton's tiny center, jesus.

I hope that typhoon fucks off someplace less populated soon. This site and this image (sourced from some Japanese newspaper) are making it look like this thing might swallow Taiwan, and even Shanghai if it gets far enough. Might even give Japan a punch in the dick while it's at it.

Taiwanese predictions aren't looking much more optimistic.

I don't trust shit after keeping an eye on Typhoon Krathon for a friend who was in Taiwan near the start of the month. That bitch repeatedly defied all model and track expectations in the weirdest ways on a daily update basis. Good sort of case example of "a storm can do whatever it wants".

The first non-tropical tornado setup in a long time is upon us. An enhanced risk for east Kansas, up into northwest Missouri and down into northeast Oklahoma for today.
This is a bit of a complicated setup. We'll have a line of storms across a cold front, moving east across Kansas and areas north of it into the overnight hours, possibly past midnight, and poses a threat for some tornadoes. There is some chance for supercells to form ahead of this line, which will have a threat for strong tornadoes. Alongside this, a dryline to the south in Oklahoma will have a chance to have isolated/discrete supercell development along and ahead of it, also posing a threat for strong tornadoes, perhaps a greater threat albeit with more uncertainty. Wind and hail are also a threat.

After this, we have a 15% risk on November 2nd and November 3rd, in west Texas on the 2nd and then moving into central Oklahoma and central Kansas on the 3rd. I don't know much about this setup so I won't go into detail.

He's lucky. Assuming that he's not a raging moron posing for social media likes, chances are good that he lost his clothes in the water, as the current stripped them off, but he managed to fight his way to safety despite how powerful the water was.

Anybody believes the intense Spanish dam removal campaign might have played a role in amplifying this weather event?

Probably. That's why I think they removed all those dams on the Klamath. Muh heckin injuns and indigenous ways of fish. Iirc they removed dams with fish ladders. So now if a big storm moves through and there's flooding not seen since before the dams they can go "OMG IT'S GLOBAL BOILING! GIVE UP YOUR RIGHTS AND PROPERTY!!!!"
