The way it sounds: duh-ray-shee-yoh!The way derecho is actually pronounced and the way I always want to pronounce it is always at odds in my head.
For me, the emphasis is on the first syllable. DER-uh-koThe way it sounds: duh-ray-shee-yoh!
The way my brain wants to say it: Durr-echo

Stuff like that is a good part of why the hobby is called "storm chasing" instead of "storm catching".Was watching Jordan Hall's stream on Severe Studios. He hauled butt to get around Lubbock into the gnarly road network that the eastern storm is heading into, then decided to abandon it at Post and head west on 380 for the one that is currently tornado-warned, then after about 10 miles changed his mind and turned around again thinking the eastern one is looking too good, even though it's only severe-warned and is heading into an even worse road hole.
*Now I turned the stream back on and it looks like he's headed west again. Vacillating like that is how you b*st.
I almost did that myself on 281 south of Pratt on May 18th, turning around once and starting to head back to town, targeting the area that eventually produced the Nettleton/Garfield EF2, before turning around again and committing to Oklahoma.
