The Surprise wind storm from Wake Low April 27th, 2026

About this episode

On April 27th, 2026, a seemingly weakening squall line across the Great Lakes unleashed unexpected, damaging winds. This episode unpacks the rare "wake low" phenomenon, a stealthy atmospheric engine that caused significant destruction *after* the main storms passed. Discover how a rapid pressure drop behind the squall line generated gusts up to 77 mph, and why this event challenges our perception of dangerous weather.
