The temperatures cited in the article are not at all uncommon, nor is the humidity, at that time of year for the areas hit by the storms. It is quite silly to call this "Heat wave of 2006 derecho series." OF COURSE it was hot. It was late July! But it wasn't even close to unusual. Either Wikipedia's editors are wildly ill-informed or are fixated on an agenda. Which could it be?? Derechos "may occur at any time of the year" and the term dates to at least the 19th Century. Get a life. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.178.149.234 ( talk) 05:48, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
Was there also any real damage stateside? That also belongs in the article as it was the same system (rename if necessary).
I just got my power back after 24 hours...likely tornado (probably F1) ON MY STREET!!! CrazyC83 23:05, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
I wasn't sure at first if it was officially a derecho (that's why I wrote near derecho status at first), the northeastern one was clearly one and the Weather Network's Chris Scott mentionned that term at about 6 PM. I haven't heard him say that word for the southern Ontario storm, but heard about very strong winds and damage. I'm not sure if it was that line that hit Ottawa at midnight but in less severe fashion, or it was probably a secondary line just north of the derecho or the northern part of the derecho was much weaker.
Well thanks to everyone to add all that info up. Sure it was probably the biggest one in a while. Look out possibly in Wednesday to Friday time frame, there could be another one firing up - Moderate risk in Chicago and Milwaukee today. Slight risk for Detroit, Cleveland, Toronto,Ottawa and Montreal tommorrow. Smells deja vu from 1995 but July 17 reminded me of Labor Day 1998 as one storm races and later another forms further south.
P.S The Larder Lake storm was earlier activity and I think it was not in the path of the derecho, it was in that cluser of storms that affected the Abitibi region of Quebec for several hours and may that cluster may have later merged with the derecho-- JForget 19:59, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Parts of Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois and Missouri (incl. STL) hit on 19th and 20th?....should be new section in this article with details to fit it in *as part of a series. St. Louis really hit good on the evening of 19th.
Significant severe weather, in a similar form, is possible in the upper Midwest tomorrow - and the same area on Thursday. Should this become a rare "derecho sequence", should this article be redone to cover both? CrazyC83 23:48, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
The Upper Michigan-northeast Ontario-southern Quebec storm was not directly related to and from early damage assesments far more powerful in force than later storms that fired in areas well south, just it occured in areas with much less population, I belive North Bay, ontario was a largest town that took a direct hit. If you read the derecho page, the progessive derecho definition (which this storm was likely) is a continous thunderstorm or group of thunderstorm cells moving at a brisk forward speed, it can weaken but the source cell but be maintained through its entire lifepsan. Not cells that fire hundreds of miles apart.
Suggest breaking up into sections based of the grouping of cells (sort of the case now) or seperate articles.
I agree its possible that this could be a series, but does each of the storms meet the criteria to be classified as a derecho (MCC - mesoconvective complex) not just MCS (meso-cyclonic storm) see one definition here http://snrs.unl.edu/amet451/miriovsky/what.html. I guess its up to the federal weather agencies to determine this. The northeast of Ontario was no doubt hit with a progressive derecho, no confirmation of any tornadoes.
Suggest changing 'Upper Midwest' heading to 'Upper Midwest-Central Great Lakes', since most areas affected by the cold front were roughly cenred in the middle great lakes (except Chicago area at southern end lakes) and Iowa & N. Missouri away from the lakes in the evening July 17th.
I redid it somewhat; added "series" to the name. This is a rare (unprecedented?) situation where four derechos took place in a five-day period... CrazyC83 02:19, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
