Late June 2012. Across the eastern United States people were sweating bullets because of an intense heat wave caused by a stagnant weather pattern. A dominant high pressure system in the southern United States with a stalled frontal boundary set across the northeast towards the plains led to numerous excessive heat warnings south of the front with temperatures in excess of 100 degrees fahrenheit. To many in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic States, they would take anything in order to minimize the sweltering temperatures. A breeze or some rain at the least. But what mother nature had in store for those areas was way different than what most were expecting. Mother nature’s plan was to print the term Derecho into the general public’s mind, with the 2012 Ring of FIre Derecho/Super Derecho.
On June 29th, a progressive derecho swept across the Midwest, Appalachian mountains, and Mid-Atlantic. The system started off as part of an unorganized cluster of thunderstorms in Iowa and Illinois, and beyond what many would have thought, that cluster expanded into one of the most well known derechos in the United States. Over the course of 12 hours, the storm complex produced large swaths of severe wind damage across numerous states, with wind gusts exceeding 100 mph in some areas. The roaring winds outside was nothing like what many across the River Valley and the Mid-Atlantic had experienced, and during a day that started off as a slight risk for severe weather. The 2012 Derecho is one of the most infamous derechos in US History, and I think it’s warranted to cover it. Today, I will be covering the background of the event, the synopsis, the timeline of events, the aftermath, and the significance of the event. Welcome to Nature’s Fury.
