Several hours of rainfall produced catastrophic flooding over parts of West Virginia in one of the state's deadliest flood disasters.

Dust from the Sahara Desert is becoming highly concentrated in the atmosphere across North Africa and the eastern Atlantic Ocean.

Remember our historic flooding back in May? It too was caused by a stalled out low pressure system that just didn’t want to budge. Like the last event, our cutoff low pressure brought several month’s worth of rain in a short amount of time. Could we see a repeat of 2018's record rain.

Whether it’s a stalled tropical system, a slow-moving thunderstorm or a stationary front; any stagnant weather pattern often turns into a dangerous situation. The same can be said about a cutoff low.

Long before clocks and calendars, the only way civilizations knew how much time had passed was to look at the moon phase.

A picture of a rare cloud formation over Smith Mountain Lake went viral Tuesday. Here is how these clouds from.

As we begin a new year, it's hard to forget about all the major weather moments that shaped our weather and news coverage in 2018.

Hail forms when thunderstorm updrafts are strong enough to carry water droplets well above the freezing level. This level can change based on time of year and location.

When it comes to showers and storms, we use probability of precipitation to develop the rain or snow "chances" (ex: 20%, 50%). However, the terms isolated, scattered and numerous are based off of those chances.

See how meteorologists use weather balloons to measure the temperature of the atmosphere.

Every storm is different but even a brief storm can produce thousands of gallons of water in your yard.

Weather is what you get, where climate is what you might expect. Let's break it down even more.

Clouds can travel for hundreds of miles in one day, but it just depends on where they formed in the atmosphere.
