Another interesting weather night

[Annihilator]

Another interesting weather event where I live in eastern Ohio, at about 1:00am we had a MCS move through, on my RadarScope app, I switched over to velocity and the colors were at the top end of the scale plus the whole MCS was rotating, estimated wind was 70+ mph, straight line. Here are a few pics around my apartment, first 2 are the trees right behind me, other 2 are around the complex.

A Mesoscale Convective System (MCS) is a collection of thunderstorms that act as a system. An MCS can spread across an entire state and last more than 12 hours. On radar one of these monsters might appear as a solid line, a broken line, or a cluster of cells.

In a way, on my RadarScope app, in the history from last night, the backwards bowing line segment was moving towards my area at 83mph, Hurricane force wind gust

Its been in the 100's here in southern new mexico. Although we can get very high winds here also because of all the heat. Might actually see rain here by the end of the week, we really need it.
