@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org Maine gets an average of two tornadoes a year, typically no more than EF2s and most often 0 or 1. This goes up in El Nino years. It’s the real deal today, though, with a 5% hatched (High confidence) tornado risk in the top half of the state. Bigger threat will be tstorm winds and hail. Radios will be on this PM and I’m expecting SKYWARN activation this afternoon. #MEweather
