A severe weather warning has been issued for an area stretching from New York to New Jersey. Yesterday, this storm system ran through the area of Pennsylvania and Virginia and now it appears to have moved north. This has bought some very cold air to the region. The air is cold and extremely dry. Although this does not appear threatening, this can be a serious precursor to hail damage. This is because New York and New Jersey are situated very close to the Atlantic ocean which has the potential to cause serious problems for the area.

In the Atlantic Ocean, you will find the Gulf Stream. This is a flow of water that runs from the south to the north. Because of this, warm water is distributed to the north. This is also why the ocean on the east coast can be significantly warmer than the west coast. Water on the west coast brings cold water from the north to the south. Ocean temperatures in California can be significantly cooler than those in New York. If this warm and moist air from the Gulf stream combines with the cold and dry air from the region, then this will cause storms with the potential for hail damage or roof hail damage.

A warning was issued this morning for the Tampa Bay region of Florida. This area is always under the threat of hail damage due to the number of storms that it suffers through each year. Unlike other states, Florida is one state that suffers from the effects of large storms almost all year long. There are the large thunderstorms which come up every spring. In addition to this, there are hurricanes that rave the area. All of these types of storms bring with them for serious hail damage. If you reside in this area, you will need to be sure that your home is protected.

The storm that is passing through this region today is a moderate cell. So far, there have been no additional reports of hail, but as the day warms up, the storm will increase in intensity. This is where the real danger comes in. If there is any significant cold air that is lying above the warm most air, then this can be a major problem. As the air near the ground warms up, then it will rise and create storm cells that are very capable of causing serious roof hail damage. Take caution today if you live in this area.

There are only two major systems that are affecting the United States at this time. The first is in the arid regions of Arizona and Nevada. The second is affecting the areas of the Potomac River. This is the effects of a cold front that has been moving through the area. At this time of the year, the Gulf Stream is adding warm and moist air that is combining with the cold and dry air of the air of the arctic. This is creating some storm cells that can be quite large and that can cause some serious roofing hail damage.
What is happening is that the cold and dry air is cutting under the warm and moist air and literally lifting it up. With all the moisture in the warm air, this creates storm cells that can become quite large. These cells have enough uplift to create hail that is quite large. Because of this, hail damage is a real possibility for the area of the Potomac River right now. Washington D.C., Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and New York are under threat of serious hail damage. Pay close attention to the direction of this storm because it could affect you.

It is the time of year that you should be concerned about hail damage. There are a few states that are being affected by major storm cells right now. One of these storms is centered over several cities in Nevada and Arizona now. The tops of these storms are very high, so the likelihood of hail is very high. Even if there is no hail for this storm, there is a very real possibility of storm damage. It is the perfect time of the year for these types of storms. Roofing hail damage is something you need to be concerned about.
The storm cells have developed east of the major mountain systems to the west so you can expect some fireworks. The buildup of the cells is due to some warm and moist air from the south combined with cooler and dryer air to the north. The buildup was particularly fast which is an indication of the power of the storm. These types of storms are typical for this area, and especially for this time of the year. Hail damage is common with this type of storm because there is so much uplift in the cells. The real danger is if this cell does not move to the east. As of now, it appears that the row of cells is moving, but you will need to watch carefully for any signs of damage to your home.
